end of the week update...
*thursday photo shoot went great
*visiting with friends (even until the almost wee hours of the morning ;) ) is absolutely wonderful- must do more often!
*having a week long migraine is- NOT fun
*waking up migraine free- fun
*quick trip to PA with no snow- perfect
*phone call from Lindsay that she had her baby- exciting! (7lbs 9 ozs and 21 inches- at least I think ;) )
*seeing Micah's expression when he saw Santa- priceless
*Addie not liking Santa- priceless
*crazy joy and excitement with cramming TONS of family into a small house- hot but oh so worth it
So yes, we went and came home from PA today- sooo many people there these days- and yet there were quite a few missing. Love seeing everyone- esp. all the children as they get together only a few times a year- have tons of pictures to share as soon as I upload.
Tomorrow we have Breakfast Club (youth church service), Sunday School Christmas party at the Roadhouse, and then Tim has youth in the evening. I- well I will be relaxing ;) LOL- at least I hope so.
Hopefully Micah will sleep through the nite tonite- last nite he woke up and insisted there were monsters in his room- and was so scared he was almost making himself sick. He said he was only sick b/c there were monsters in there. Needless to say- he slept with us and we talked about it a lot today- in hopes of convincing him that there really wasn't anything in his room. Before bed, we went through with flashlights and yelled really loud so that the monsters would leave- hopefully it worked. Poor guy- how do they even get those thoughts in their heads?
I am exhausted beyond belief- so I think i am off to sleep. Hope to get the pictures uploaded tomorrow- if not- it will be soon- promise! :)
Ohhh- and if anyone needs a name for their baby- lol- here is a list of all of the children (all under 9 but one) that are a part of my extended family.
Joshua, Nathan, Brooklyn, Kevin, Kyle, Nicholas, Isabelle, Olivia, Vincent, Joey, Elaina, Lauren, Ryan, Alyssa, Taylor, Logan, Morgan, Austin, Laiken, Rylee, Delanee, Tyler, Aiden, Micah, Addison.
Yep- 25 of them. Aye aye aye!! I think that is a pretty good list for anyone searching for a name ;)

Jen--- If yelling at the monsters doesnt work try "Monster Spray" I do it with the little girl I babysit for (ie--- a spray bottle filled with water labeled monster spray)and we just spray all the monsters when we get scared and it makes them go away! :)Alyn
