Long time, no post:(

Well, we finally got over the stomach virus and had a very busy December and a wonderful Christmas. Even though Steele was not feeling well Christmas morning, the best Christmas present I got was hearing his laughter when he saw his presents from Santa. His eyes lit up and he giggled. He loves his horse barn, tricycle and his "shootin" tent. He calls it a shootin tent because it looks camoflauge. He was so happy and has loved playing with his new toys. I can not keep his room clean from all the animals that Santa brought with his horse barn. Oh well, maybe one of these days. We had a wonderful time hanging out with family and friends this holiday. Here are some pictures from a great Christmas.

Steele and his horse barn

Riding his new tricycle! Daddy had to let the seat down so he could reach the peddles.

He loves this Lightning McQueen camera and thinks he is really taking pictures of everyone.

"Say Cheese Momma!"

Go away, go away!

I am wishing the stomach virus to go away from my house. It started with me before Thanksgiving, went to Steele, to JP, back to me, and now back to JP. It is not fun guys, especially when you are pregnant. I know this little guy is wondering what the heck is going on with mommy right now. So anyway, that is why there have been no posts. I did manage to drag myself to the Christmas parade last night just so I could see Steele's face. He was cold though but got warmed up by some chocolate chip cookies and then got wired. Today I took some cute pictures for the Christmas card with our awesome new Canon Rebel XS that was an early Christmas present from John Paul's parents to JP and me. It is amazing the difference from our old one. I am so glad Christmas is almost here, but starting to sweat because I haven't bought any presents. Must go shopping!!!
