Christmas with our children

Finally on the Saturday after Christmas we had our Christmas with our children at Jonathan and Jen's house. The meal was delicious, and is always fun to be with all.  

The kids all got along so well, Emily Jo and Sydney were so happy to be together. Sydney is obsessed with Eli right now, and totally loves him!!! Eli gave Sydney a big poster size picture of himself to hang in her room. She had had a small picture of him, that she carried around with her, taking "Eli with me!" It is so cute, and of course Eli absolutely loves this. With him being the only boy, it is nice for him to be a 'favorite'.  

Poor little Stella, was not feeling well at all that day. She became worse and worse as the day went on.  It was so sad to see her so miserable. On Sunday they took her to the doctor and she had a double ear infection!!! Poor little thing was in so much pain the night before, and of course had Jonathan and Jen up almost all night long.  She is much better now.

Olivia is growing up so fast, and is such a good helper.  She certainly loves her little cousins.  Olivia had a new Kindle Fire, so she was able to help me with my new one!! Eli is our lego expert to say the least. He is so talented, we just know he is going to be an architect, and a good one at that!!!

Audrey, is so close to walking now, and is such a joy to have around. She is progressing so well, we are all totally pleased with her progress.  Our donation this year went to the CCVI center of Kansas City, which is where Audrey receives her therapy.  Steve and I went to one of her therapy sessions one day, and we were so impressed with the center!!! 

Sydney and Emily loved playing together. Sydney had received some dress up clothes for Christmas and her and Emily strutted around in their heels, and fancy clothes. It was so much fun to see them dance around.  

Wonderful picture that Jen gave to Jonathan

We had a great evening with all, with the exception of poor little Stella, who did NOT have a good time. Here she is the day after, feeling a lot better!!
