I’ve braved the crowds this week to finish up some last minute Christmas shopping.\u00a0 It really wasn’t bad until last night.\u00a0 I had one more item to run out and pick up for Josiah and it was CRAZY–it felt like Black Friday all over again.\u00a0 \ud83d\ude42\u00a0 But I wasn’t in a hurry so I just let the crazy people scuttle around me as I meandered through the stores.\u00a0 This year we did our shopping a little later (and a lot online) so it hasn’t really felt like Christmas so me until now.\u00a0 Plus now that we have snow I feel much more festive as well.<\/p>\n

Yesterday I was going to head up to visit Shannon but Tim came down with something yucky, so I had to stay home.\u00a0 I was bummed but I’m glad to report that Tim is feeling a lot better today.\u00a0 He’s actually eating real food again this morning!\u00a0 I’m just glad that he got it yesterday and not closer to Christmas.\u00a0 We think it was perhaps food poisoning because there weren’t many other symptoms which leaves me hopeful that no one else will catch it.<\/p>\n

Tomorrow (or more likely “today” when you read this post!) we’re heading to St. Cloud for Tim’s side Christmas.\u00a0 Chloe is quite excited to see all of her cousins –she reminded me again<\/span> as she was going to bed tonight… \ud83d\ude42\u00a0 I’m excited to hang out with everyone and enjoy some festive food!\u00a0 I’m sure I’ll have a few pictures to post soon!<\/p>\n

Before I go, here is a funny picture of Josiah waiting anxiously for the cookies to bake.\u00a0 I thought it was so funny how he kept peering in to check on them.\u00a0 He’s a hoot these days!<\/p>\n
