OK...I'm going to try to do a better job with this...lol

I intended to update my blog weekly...but...it just didn't happen.

What's new...well, Mike's parents cam in early to help out with the little ones so I could start orienting for my new job(s), I'm working prn at 2 hospitals, one as an LC and other in NICU. I like both facilites, but I LOVE lactation since that is my passion.

The kids are doing well, and getting very excited about Christmas.

Maggie finally gets it and realizes Santa is coming! Maggie has been having good and bad days...we're going to see our new DAN doctor in Colorado Springs in January. We've heard good things about him so...we'll see. She is much more verbal but become very defiant with dressing and keeping her coat on, which is a must here. We're working on some different strategies, and hoping the Christmas break does not set her back.

Will is crawling, babbling away (mama and dada), pulling up, and into everything! He is such a happy baby and has been doing great with me working the past couple of weeks. His appetite is great and loves all his baby foods. It's hard to believe he is 8 months old.

Gabby and Lauren (Miss Tween and Teen) are doing good, playing basketball, going to school and driving us crazy as usual...lol They're excited about Christmas break and have begun a new hobby of snow tubing. They are a mess!

Mike is enjoying his job and learning lots of new things everyday. Its so nice to have him home more, the kids and I really missed him having to travel so much.

The weather has been an adjustment anywhere from -17 to 40's lately, and snow here and there. We LOVE Colorado, its absolutely beautiful and so much to do. It will be different not being in LA for Christmas, but we are thankful to have Mike's parents here to share the holidays with us!

Merry Christmas!
