Happy New Year! *gag cramp*

Well the flu that I have had since a week before Christmas is still with me. I saw the clinic doctor yesterday who said "it's either viral or bacterial" ordered some tests and sent the results to my family doctor, who is so busy, by the time I get an appointment in his office I probably will be done with this. And then he'll say "yep you were sick. You had XXX." Or he'll say "yep you were sick. You didn't have XXX though." It doesn't change the fact that I am not feeling well now.


I am finally posting our Christmas pictures tho. Hooray for small accomplishments.


We went to my dad's on the evening of the 23rd for some dinner and visiting with my dad's friend Adrien and also Granty Penny and Gruncle Ron. Notice the snowflakes on the wall above the "fireplace". My dad has maybe 200 unique hand-crafted paper snowflakes that he painstakingly made over about 20 years, 70's to 90's.



Adrien helping Anya and Hayden figure out how to make that happy meal toy fly.

I love my dad's tree. This is the morning of the 24th, our family Christmas day. (and Hayden's birthday too)

Rounding the kids up in their matching pj's for the photo.

Of course, some of them were more difficult to make sit on the couch. Sage needed to be held. Looks like he's developing quite the ab of steel! I only just noticed in this photo.

Opening some presents. Or explaining why you can't just rip all the paper off all the presents. This was Elora's present and they all wanted to help rip.
Playing dinky cars together like matching cousins should.
Our Christmas morning. Not many photos because I was feeling rotten.
We discovered that Tilly is a size 2T. Much to her chagrin. This was a few days before christmas.

Feel the squishing suffocating love. You can hear Tilly saying "oh god".


Have a Happy New Year everyone. Stay safe. Don't drink and drive.

Happy New Year! I'm sorry you're still sick. That's yucky. Anya, BJ and I are sick with fevers, coughs, and runny noses. So far Dhara and Elora have avoided it. I think.


Love
Us

Happy New Year!

Interestingly, Thea is sick with a fever and runny nose. A gift from the Szabicots? :)

(Just kidding, it could easily be from school. Who knows?)

Tilly has the CUTEST little puppy face! :D My girls love wearing t-shirts. It's yet another step in their attempt to become human.

Sorry you're still sick. That sucks. Hope you get some rest this weekend and feel better soon. Are you back to work on Monday?

Are those pics taken at your Dad's?? I love his tree too!! Pretty, pretty.
