Catching Up {part 1}

Hi friends! So apparently it's near impossible for me to blog during the holidays. I'll just give you a brief recap of our last few months...

We have In N Out for lunch every Sunday. Every. Did I mention every Sunday? It was kindof an incentive to get the kids to church when I was alone while TJ in Afghanistan...and it stuck. Because autism = routine. Sigh. But this day, Calwb picked Chinese food. And now chow mien is his favorite food. 

But we still have In N Out on Sundays...

Caleb's been losing his teeth like whoa. It's so crazy to see his face change. The count now is up to FOUR.

A local sushi place left a menu on my door, and they offered free delivery, so I ordered in when TJ was out one night {because TJ + sushi = BLECK}. When you get a roll that's almost half the size of your face, you take a selfie with it. 

 

Picking out our tree was so magical with TJ home this year. The kids had so much fun at Home Depot; they had Santa's sleigh to ride in, and Elsa & Anna cutouts to photograph with. 

Lilly had a barf-tastic morning, so I prepared for battle. Troops came with supplies of Pedialite {for LC} and Diet Coke {for ME} and we made it through the day. Seeing her laying on a sheet over the couch made me think of being sick as a kid.

We took lots of trips to see the Christmas Coatrack. 

Helped Auntie Christy and Uncle Steven decorate their very first tree.

Lilly loves playing at her friend Luke's house. He's just the sweetest. And his mom is pretty cool too.

Auntie Tara and I took CC to his THIRD ever movie; Big Hero 6. He stayed for the whole thing and loved it.

Visited Lilly's favorite place, Hobby Lobby...more than a few times!

Lilly was gifted a ballerina Barbie and she just loved imitating her poses.

Currently reading my gift from TJ. Love her.

I painted my nails quite festively, more than a few times.

Lilly was a grump taking pictures.

Much better.

The kids playing a silly game with Grandpa.

My ENTIRE FAMILY was in town. It was crazy and exciting and full of love. 

Christmas morning frocks.

Christmas morning sustenance. 

Unwrapping at Grammy & Grandpa's.

My dad shook glitter allllll over me, so I was extra sparkly for dinner at TJ's mom's. Thanks pops.

Who's the best aunt ever?? ELLEN. Because she gave Christy and me Ryan Gossling "Hey Girl" cookies from Sweet & Saucy. 

Pumpkin Pie with Grandma Betty.

My dad took this one of me & LC.

The Gresches on Christmas Eve at Downtown Disney.

Alright, did you make it that far down my blog?! I'll have more photos to share soon, including a generous trip to Legoland!
