Christmas

Once again, I have been a horrible blogger! Life has been so crazy this month. I am loving my new job working at home as a medical transcriptionist, but it's been busier than I anticipated. I'm grateful to have a job and be bringing in some extra money. It has been a huge blessing for us.

I can't believe that Christmas has come and gone. Where does the time go? Because I've been so engrossed with work, it hardly even seemed like Christmas. But once we got all the presents wrapped and put under the tree (at 11:00 p.m. Christmas Eve) it finally felt like Christmas. We were pretty excited to see Lincoln on Christmas morning, and I think he had fun. He really just wanted to play with each thing as he opened it! I felt bad letting him open his presents and then leaving home for pretty much the rest of the day. We went and had breakfast at my dad's house and spent a couple hours there with all of my family. Then we headed to Dan's mom's house and spent the rest of the morning and afternoon there. We took Lincoln home for a nap and stayed at home the rest of the day. It was pretty laid back, but nice. I even allowed myself to take the whole day off! :)

I miss the days when Christmas meant a 2 week break from everything and time to just play! Hope everyone had a great holiday!

Lincoln loves his little armchair and his Lego table.
