Christmas Eve

We went to church with my family on Christmas Eve, and even got a few pictures. There were no disasters, except when I went up with Caleb for the children's sermon, and he tried to show the church my spanx by lifting the hem of my dress.

My sister Amanda got in by 10 p.m. so we could start opening the presents we got each other. The night wasn't over until 3 a.m. Santa stayed up late this year.

First trip to the dentist

Okay, these pictures were set up so that Dad will have some shots for his website. But we did go to the dentist for the first time a couple of weeks ago. Caleb did a great job, only crying when Dad (a children's dentist) put his mask on. If you're ever in Augusta and need a dentist for your kid, go to Dr. Chandler.

What a good boy

I just logged on to post some more pictures to the blog, but I had to put Joshua down for a nap. I told Caleb to stay still, which we've been practicing, but I didn't fully expect him to obey. I ran upstairs, put Joshua down, then flew back down to the kitchen where I saw Caleb, sitting on his potty going poo. What a good boy. Not only did he obey, but he took himself to the potty. He amazes me everyday.

Thanksgiving at home in Georgia

The boys and I spent Thanksgiving at home and we were easily reminded of how much we have to be thankful for.

Caleb loves everyone, and asks about everyone as soon as they leave the room. He was especially sad when Katie went back to school and would randomly say, "Where Katie go?" And then answer his own question saying, "Katie college." But since it's taken me so long to post, Katie's already back. I'm thrilled to have my friend back, and the both boys are happy to have their favorite nanny - I mean their aunt.

I got my new digital SLR this week, so hopefully I'll have more pictures to share soon. Until then, I'm hanging out here in Augusta finishing up my Christmas shopping and teaching Caleb how to sit still. Some day he will learn this skill, I'm convinced.
