Sweet Christmas Sentiments

Ethan covering up one of his brothers for a nap. These are the moments we treasure...

Wow, Santa sure is a messy guy! He WAS in a hurry afterall. And we are sure we heard bells in the night from the reindeer, who by the looks of it sure enjoyed their carrots! As E pointed out, those silly reindeer even ate the green stems! :)

E was sad to see Ralph the Elf go, but it was nice of Santa to

leave him a yummy chocolate sucker and letter promising he will look after Ralph until next December!

A Special Thank You

While we have received support from our community this year, and we are ever so grateful, we wanted to take a moment to thank those who helped make our Christmas even more special. We were contacted by a few individuals who felt the want to help our family. Thank you to Kiddie Academy in Batavia, Dominick's in Geneva, and the Giving Tree from St. Mary's Catholic Church in Huntley (where my Dad Lou serves as a Deacon and my Mom is very involved).

They helped us with everything from cans of gold...ahem, Neosure formula ;) to sleepers for the winter to toys for the boys and Ethan. Growing our family by 4 overnight has had its challenges financially, but God sure is good and has worked through others to help us out. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts.

To everyone else who has sent a message, a donation to the diaper/formula fund, made blankets, prayed for our family, we are forever appreciative. Please know we will get thank yous out when we can. For now I am sure you can understand that any free time (and I use that term very loosely) while the babies are sleeping we are spending with Ethan and ensuring his life stays as normal and fun and complete as possible is our goal.
