The boys shirts say," If you think I'm cute you should see my twin!" and Madison's shirt says, "Just Be Glad That I'm Not a Twin." I had to buy these shirts and take their pictures!
Madison thought that we needed to sing Happy Birthday to Jesus on Christmas Eve, but I didn't have a cake made, so she thought that a candle would do the trick. After lining up some of her new horses that she got for Christmas and a little Cinderella figurine, we all sang happy birthday to Jesus. It was very sweet .
Since we were able to celebrate Christmas with pretty much all of our WHOLE families- we celebrated it 5 different times with 5 different parties- I will spare you all the pictures, but here's a picture of the boys before they tore into one of their gifts. The boys liked the paper and tissue more than their gifts at the time, but now they are LOVING to play with everything that they got that has wheels! Of course, Madison's highlight was all of the horse items that she got! Oh- to those of you that do want to see our family pictures-mostly the LARGE Beslic party people- I will use snapshot or winkflash or something like that some time and email all of you that info. . . I just need to learn how to do that! I told you that I will, so I will . . . sometime!
Well, the 5 full days of celebrating was fun, but it also sent Archie and I to the Emergency Room with Madison in the early morning after Chrismas. We got home after 11:oo or so on Christmas night from my mom's house and put all the kids to bed. Madison woke up around 3:00 in the morning wheezing and crying hysterically because she couldn't breathe. My mom came over right away and we went to the ER. After a breathing treatment and chest x-rays, the doctor told us that she had a mild form of croupe, which really isn't that bad to have, but was very scary for us in the beginning. After some streroids and a cool mist that she had to breathe in for 1/2 hour, we were free to go. Madison is holding the little "dragon nose" that she had to wear while we were at the hospital. This picture is after the breathing treatment and x-rays and while she was watching some cartoons. Archie and I are so glad that our little girl is healthy and that nothing serious came from this and Madison is so glad that God healed her!
And LASTLY- today was Archie's family birthday party. His actual birthday is on New Years Eve, but we like to celebrate with the family before. I will write a blog to honor Archie on his actual birthday tomorrow-I hope!
