Winter Break

Oh how I have enjoyed it. Sleeping in, no running around, help with the kids. It's been a nice break from our hectic lives. It's a new year and tomorrow begins again the craziness. But these two weeks have really been a gift. It has reminded me to try to slow down a little more. We spent a lot of the break hanging out with good friends. Alexis has been very social over the break and only let her double pink slow her down minimally. She looked rough though.


She got an American girl doll for Hanukkah and hasn't let the thing out of her sight.


If that's not an ad for American girl, I don't know what is!!!!!! She stayed up to midnight on New Years with her friends, has been playing endlessly with her brother and sister who worship her, and had a tea party for her upcoming birthday. She is a very social girl!

Max has really enjoyed having Ben home. They have gone to Starbucks, to the park, and wrestled around the house. One day I went to work and Ben got a whole day to himself. Of course I forgot to lay out clothes for the kids and he was so proud of getting them dressed that he texted me a picture.


I mean he did have to separately text me a picture of Alexis to ask which shoes went with her outfit but hey he did pretty good. Maizy has been talking so much. She calls Alexis "hehi" for Lexi and she calls Max "Buddy". She is so sweet but a little tougher than Lexi was. I mean if she falls down it is not crying for three hours generally she will get back up! She wants to do whatever Hehi and Buddy are doing. She is cuddly and adorable!

All in all a great break for us all!
