Merry Christmas

This has not been a great week for us so far. Max was sick, sick (if you know what I mean) for the first time on Friday. It was not a first we welcomed that is for sure! He was sick until we went to the dr. on Saturday morning. What is it about a dr.'s waiting room that will cure a kid SUPER fast! He ran around that place like a WILD man!! Well, between sick Max and a dr.'s office full of germs, I got sick first thing Sunday morning. I'll say it again, this has not been fun. My wonderful mother-in-law picked up Max on Monday and took him to stay the night with her while I rested. I can't tell you how much better I felt having rest in a QUIET house. THANK YOU SHUGAH!! Some of my symptoms are still lingering but I'm definitely on the up and up. Please say a prayer that I've fully recovered by tomorrow and NO ONE else gets sick.

So Max has received some presents. My sister and Mike sent him a fun little toy that he really loves! However, she sent a missing piece from one of his toys that was left in FL and he was definitely most excited about that missing monkey. It was priceless how his face lit up!! My mom, Allen and brother sent him a farm. I know he is going to play with it FOREVER (well maybe not forever, forever - it might be weird if he was still playing with it as a teen)!! But again, his favorite part sadly was not the present. This time it was the box and the packing peanuts. I'll let the pictures and video do the talking!!

He was COMPLETELY worn out from all the fun with the box that he decided to take a rest IN the box. Apparently packing peanuts are very cushy!

He was so comfortable, he even watched elmo in the box - chairs are SO overrated.




Here is a video of him DIVING into the box - remember you have to go the blog to see the video.

Unfortunately, I have not received my Christmas photos in the mail yet, so my Christmas cards have not been sent. This year, it is definitely the thought that counts!! We hope that you all have a Merry Christmas and safe travels.

Blessings - Tabitha, Kelly and Max
