Christmas 2009

A belated Merry Christmas to you all!!

Wow, it was sure busy here at our house. Everybody has been sick, with the exception of Kraig. He has the "bug" first a couple of weeks earlier. It all started with Kaden having a fever last Sunday. The first three nights were pretty rough. He would wake up every few hours screaming and mad. It was a wrestling match trying to get him to settle down. We have never seen Kaden like that before. He was feeling pretty normal during the day, but at night, not so much - strange!! Then Kory and Konnie got their fevers and then Kaden started wheezing so we had to start the breathing treatments. He did pretty well sitting still for them, thank God!!

On Christmas Eve morning we always celebrate Kenny and Katie's birthday - and it is always a sad time. But this year, we spent most of the morning at the pediatrician's office and didn't have much time to spend on our grief. I must say that I am relieved that it didn't hurt so much this year. I think that the anticipation of their birthday is nearly always worse than the actual day itself. Of course, the first few years were the worst. Each year it gets a little bit easier - I know that having our miracles on earth is the best medicine of all. Happy 7th birthday my sweet babes - we look forward to seeing you again in Heaven!!

We had to cancel our Christmas gatherings at our house so as not to expose others to our illness. What a major bummer!! Fortunately, we had a Merry Christmas through the fevers, wheezing and runny noses!! We hope you all did too!!

Here are some pictures for your viewing pleasure...
