Getting Well!

Hayden officially missed her first day of school on Friday.  She wasn't very happy about it, but she was running a fever and couldn't go!  She ended up on an antibiotic for an ear infection, which is only like the 3rd one she has ever had.  Thanks again Aunt Kim...for checking out our little angel and making her feel better!  She ran a fever until Saturday night and then I noticed that little Gracie had a fever too!  Guess what she caught all of her sister's germs, somehow I knew it would happen.  Gracie ran a fever all weekend and has been a little stinker about taking medicine for the fever and saying that she is a stinker is putting it nicely!!!  She absolutely goes crazy and holds it in her mouth and pretty much spits it back in your face, needless to say that at 2am this is not fun!  We had a very rough night last night with fever and crying so this morning I stopped by to see Aunt Kim again and guess what she had an ear infection too.   Aunt Kim we so appreciate all you do for us, especially when our babies don't feel good...I feel like we don't say thanks enough...So here is a big THANK YOU from all of us!!!  So now we have all been on antibiotics except Mark, and we are hoping that he won't need them!  

Sunday we finished up our Christmas shopping, the only thing we had left was Aunt Kim and I just couldn't figure out what to get her, but I ended up finding the perfect gift...or at least I hope so!  It feels good to be done and let me just say I know two little angels that are going to have a great Christmas this year!   I always get so excited about the gifts we buy for other people, I always try to get something very special for everyone.  Then after shopping we went to help decorate Mimi and Pop's Christmas tree, or I guess I should say we watched Aunt Kim and Hayden decorate Mimi's tree this year!  Hayden likes to hang everything on the limb and I sure hope Mimi didn't change it because she will notice...just kidding!  It was cute, I am pretty sure she had about seven ornaments in one spot.  Gracie didn't help decorate but she didn't feel that great either so maybe next year she will be ready to hang all of her ornaments in one spot too...hee hee!   Mimi also gave Mark his stocking early this year...I think it was probably the best stocking stuffer ever!!!

Today the girls got mail, which always makes Hayden happy!   It was mail from Mimi, which is even more exciting.  The girls opened up their mail and it was Princess Christmas cards with an ornament.  Gracie put hers in the perfect spot on the tree...in the back.  I told her to put it on the front and she said "No Mommy I like this side"  so I told her okay then whatever makes you happy.  Hayden put hers on her pink tree in her room, which looks really cute!  Thanks Mimi, you made their day! 

Oh and they also got letters from Santa Claus, but we are going to wait for Daddy to get home to open those.  I will post about those tomorrow!
