Christmas is Coming

Just wanted to pop in and post some pictures from the past week. We are all looking forward to the Christmas festivities ahead. But so far our family has been plagued with sickness with the little ones :( Kooper, 10 months, was admitted to Forrest General on Sunday with RSV that led to pneumonia and an ear infection!! He is still pretty sick, but thankfully he was released today. We are still praying for his full recovery and for rest for Kris and Brandy. Also, Fischer currently has bronchitus and some ear issues. Hopefully his meds will kick in and he will feel much better soon. Collin and Brantlee have a visit with Dr. Tibbs tomorrow morning. Both have been battling the "crud" and cough for the past several days. Hopefully we will have an uneventful visit and get some meds to knock it out just in time for Santa.



So before the rush of all the holiday events, here are some shots of what we've been up to. So far we......


Went to the Crager's Christmas and tried to get a picture with Big PawPaw Crager (This is as good as it got)


did not want anything to do with photography



quickly bonded with cousin Miles of all people ;)


managed to get a photo with all 4 Crager generations.

attended a birthday party for Jesus that Collin refused to participate in.

wouldn't eat cake, wear a hat, or sing... just one of those days.

got all dressed up in our Christmas best!

pranced around in our bloomers eating a cookie before nap time.

Made homeade Christmas ornaments

spilled an entire box of sprinkles on the floor.

finally got to play outside with Poppy when the weather warmed up.

Cruised around in the golf cart (yes, Poppy let Collin drive!)

Played the Wii

I would like to be able to post a precious picture here of my two sitting in Santa's lap. But that will obviously have to wait until next year... when I don't have it planned with cute matching monogrammed shirts. Sadly, this year the Crager kids were too terrified (or stubborn) to have their picture made with Santa, despite their cute outfits. They both clinged to me and mom like they had seen a monster. Collin plainly said, "I will NOT." So there you have it!

Well, time to clean and get ready for the toy explosion!!! Til next time.
