Happy Christmas!

Whew, Christmas is over and I'm exhausted! We did the Schulte family Christmas on the 18th so it was nice to spread things out a bit. On Wednesday, Kevin and I went to Reagan's preschool and we helped her make a Gingerbread house...I had to keep on Kevin to quite eating the candy until the house was completed! On Christmas eve, we spent the day at my mom's house and was visited by Santa (Reagan was just fine and dandy but Reagan still has a complex about getting anywhere near Santa). Christmas morning was soooo exciting for Reagan. Every present she opened, she wanted us to open so she could start playing with it. Make note..next year Santa won't bring so much because interest is lost by the end! I took a picture of her in her new housecoat and her dressup wig. She got a moxie girl doll, barbie doll head to fix hair with, dresses, books, cowgirl boots, and dress up costumes to name a few. Reese got some of the necessities and a baby gait to keep her from crawling up the stairs (which she may be doing soon!) I took a picture of Kevin's new hat that my uncle embroidered-he has started a business doing all kinds of things like that. That afternoon we went to Beecher City for a Christmas and then went to Belleville on Sunday for the last Christmas. What a fun time. It's always sad to see it go knowing we are facing the winter with nothing but Spring to look forward to. Merry Christmas everyone!

The big 3-0 is finally here

Sorry to all my faithful followers for going 2 months and no posts. I had almost given up on blogging, you know...never enough time it seems like. Not even sure where to begin or even what has happened in the last two months. Reese is growing up so fast, has 2 teeth already and just started eating some rice cereal about a week ago. Reagan is loving preschool and is so excited about Santa coming to her (she wants EVERYTHING she sees on commercials). Yesterday was my big 3-0. Yep, it's official, I'm old. No exciting party or anything but we did have Kevin's family Christmas yesterday so that was just as good. Also to kick off me being 30, I applied to graduate school yesterday to start my Master's for Nurse Practitioner. This is something I've thought about for a few years but never thought I was in a good position to do it (still not sure I am). But I just did it quickly before I had time to think about it. My sister-in-law Jessica is doing it too so we can carry each other through it for the next few years. Wish me luck....think I'm going to need it!
