Sorry it has been awhile. Life has gotten really, really busy lately. We have a baby who has started sleeping more at night and less during the day. This is wonderful for I feel so much better now that I am sleeping longer stretches. It just means that my hands are more full during the day. Add to that the fact that Corom is starting to act more like a 2 year old than a 1 year old. He is super busy. We are on high speed all day, only slowing down when the boys nap. Well, since the last post we decided to take a trip home to Thanksgiving. It was a really last minute decision and a quick trip. We had purchased a little volkswagon about a month ago. We all fit snuggly in it and decided that we could afford to drive our zippy new car home. (So much cheaper in gas than the Land Rover) The travels went well with minimal stops, one being a lunch stop at the McDonald's play place. The trip was worth the long drive. We enjoyed time with all of the family and 2 turkey dinners. Noelle was thrilled to pieces to spend time with her cousins. They always seem to pick up right where they left off. This time they had Corom and Sylvia tagging along. We enjoyed our time visiting with all the family on a quieter weekend than Christmas. It was a great trip and we look forward to coming home in a few weeks and being able to fly this time.
Since we've been home winter has really begun. It is super cold and snowy. We try to stay home as much as possible. We are trying to bring the festivities of the holidays into our home and to teach Noelle and Corom about our family traditions. We decorated our house, have been playing Christmas music, made sugar cookies and have been reading "The Night Before Christmas." I'll post more as the month progresses. Hope you are all doing well.

ooops... sorry Tam. That comment (from "April Dawn") was actually me. My sis-in-law was using my computer yesterday and I didn't realize that she was still logged in. I wonder who else I commented on with her "log-in"... ???? Oh well. :)
I love those pictures! Can't wait for more fun times at Christmas. Love you!
Okay, seriously, you guys better keep a close eye on Corom while you're out here again. He might just end up in Auntie Gina's purse. Because we all know that it's big enough!! ;)
