Dad and Dec, of course dad is hiding. |
You know when time seems to speed by when it comes close to the holidays, well our house is no different. Trying to get the house ready to sell, taking care of a special needs baby, two school age kids, the hubby, and add the holidays, yeah don't judge you wouldn't have any time either. ;p
Halloween
Well you could say our Halloween was a little eventful but we got through it, and the kids loved going door to door. It was starting to get cold, so we started to lock down on when we took Declan out. But he did wear a Halloween sleeper and stayed inside with Dad while I took D & K around the neighborhood. I was the neighborhood witch, D was a zombie hunter, and K was a vampire. Halloween is definitely my Favorite holiday.

mom and Dec. I love this babe |
The house was lit up with lights, spiders and webs, all sorts of things. The kids kept saying Thanks for a great Halloween mom. So I'm happy.

D, K & Declan on Thanksgiving |
Thanksgiving
Don't worry it was quiet. We stayed home, and had a big dinner with some family. All the trimmings, and not to mention all the pies... I say thank you, but my body was saying
"What are you doing to me!"
Oh well, that is what Holidays are for right?
My kids are getting so big, and they are changing daily. Little D especially, he is growing up to fast and I am enjoying every minute of it. We have been able to keep him healthy and he is showing us a world of miracles and of hope and dream. Love it!
Christmas
All the stocking were hung with care, the tree was lit with bright lights and family ornaments, and Declan could care less. He didn't care one iota for this big tall bright tree, or anything under it. All he wanted was mom, and then some more of mom. This separation anxiety is getting really bad. We are still locked up for winter rarely going out, we have cut out most family parties. We did go to one party, my mother watched Declan so we could go, and since we wanted to show off our baby boy, hubby and I made a video of our journey so far, I will post that video on another post so keep your eyes open for that one. Even though we did a small Christmas I believe the kids had fun, and enjoyed all they received. Declan liked ripping the paper more than the toys, but he has a short attention span and pretty much loves anything you put in front of him. Oh I forgot, anything except his food, then he just spits it at you. Trust me my face has been the receiver of food at late. We all stayed up for the New Year, yes even Declan, banged pots and pans and drank apple cider at midnight. We are wishing for a better year with health, no more surprises (the bad kind), and getting into a new home.
We wish everyone well, and hope for a cure soon!
