Christmas and more!

I don't even know where to begin when trying to describe our Holidays this year. The word 'Chaotic' definitely comes to mind though. The Thursday night before Christmas we celebrated at my mom's house where Kylie was spoiled rotten with toys from Polly Pockets, Squinkies, Craft projects, a Leapster Explorer and more. Even I got spoiled with the surprise of a Kindle, and a gift card to a very 'swanky' movie theater. Unfortunately, we found out that morning that Beck had an ear infection, so he stayed home with dad in hopes that he could rest up for our day of travel the following afternoon.

Beck did pretty well on the plane ride with me, but unfortunately, Ky and J's flights were delayed getting in, making it a grand total of almost 10 hrs. of flying for them! (gotta love using free southwest tickets!) A day later, J was at the doctors in Pitt after being up all night with Kylie, who had decided she didn't want Beck to get all the attention and ended up with an ear infection herself. What FUN!!!

Even with all the sickness and delayed flights, it was amazing to spend time with family, and watch Kylie hang out with her cousin Jacob, whom she LOVES! Here are a couple pictures from various activities!

Kylie and Jacob just being strange =)
