Happy New Year! I'm trying to get better about uploading photos of the boys, especially since my original intent with my blog is to update friends and family from far away about the boys as they grow up. So here are some of the photos from Christmas.
I will sit down and write a real blog again soon, since one of my New Year's resolutions is to be a better blogger. But right now my house is a complete wreck since I haven't been able to absorb all the extra stuff we got for Christmas. The boys were thoroughly spoiled by grandparents, aunts and uncles from both sides, in addition to the gifts that we got for them, so I have toys scattered everywhere and I'm not sure where to put the new toys and which old toys will get the boot yet. And I have gradually accumulated 6 loads of clean laundry sitting in a pile on my bedroom floor that I haven't been able to fold or put away since I've been so busy from hanging out with family between Christmas and New Years (But let's give me some credit because the clothes are clean). So to properly procrastinate from these arduous tasks, I need to sit on the couch and watch a lot of TV or play Mario Kart on the Wii and that just doesn't leave a lot of room for blogging.
The boys had a great Christmas, I mean, three days of Christmas. On Thursday we celebrated Christmas with just the four of us. Then Friday was Christmas with my parents and brothers and sister-in-law and nephews and nieces. Then Saturday was Christmas with Casey's parents and brother and sister and sister-in-law and so-to-be-brother-in-law. Then we spent the next few days with my family while my brother and nephew and niece were in town from NY.
For New Year's Eve, we held a mini party for the boys and their cousins, complete with a countdown (to 8:00pm) and a ball drop (I stood on the bed and dropped a beach ball) and noisemakers (empty toilet paper rolls wrapped in tin foil). They were a very enthusiastic crowd, and of course I forgot to take pictures.
