Sorry that it's been so long since I've posted...I've skipped quite a few things, but it's been quite hectic.
Let's see...last time I posted was Halloween. Thanksgiving was complicated as always, 15 plus people in my tiny house trying to cook in my even smaller kitchen.
Here are some pictures of the kids on Thanksgiving.
We also made a weekend trip to Dallas for Shannon's graduation from UNT; that was an interesting trip. Very short and hectic with the majority of the time spent in the car. Someday I'd like to go to Dallas for more than one day. LOL
Christmas Eve we went to my brother Jose's house for Nochebuena...roasted pig and all. We took the opportunity that the kids were all dressed in coordinating outfits to get some pictures. However Zander as always had his own plans and refused to pose with the girls. But here are some pictures of the girls in front of the Christmas tree...Elysabeth and my niece Isabella.
Here is Zander playing with one of his favorite toys from this Chirstmas...the boy loves Cars!
Christmas morning was awesome...this has been by far the funnest Christmas to date! Elysabeth finally understood that Santa brings presents and we left him cookies and milk and we also left some carrots for his reindeer. Here she is opening some presents. She got so many presents she honestly got tired of opening gifts.
Zander got some help from Daddy...he lost interest after he opened one. He then wanted to play.
This last picture is Elysabeth on New Year's Eve after dinner. We went to dinner at Brio just the 4 of us and when we came home I shot some pictures of Ellie in front of our Christmas tree. Zander was asleep by this time, so there were not pics of him.
Amidst all this we are still waiting for the day of Elysabeth's neurologist appointment. She had another seizure on the 22nd of December while spending the night at her grandparents house. We didn't take her to the ER or even to the doctor as Dr. Haggerty agreed that nothing else could be done until she was the neurologist. The appointment is next week. Hopefully we'll have some answers by then.
I made some family resolutions with regards to organization and cleanliness. I created a family binder to keep track of chores on a weekly and monthly basis. I've also been better about creating menus and putting together grocery lists. I'll create a separate post for that project with pictures. I've created an inventory of my coupons to ensure that I'm using the coupons I have and ones that are about to expire. I'm also in the middle of creating a chore chart for Elysabeth, I'll post that one as well.
