Politically Incorrect

We call this Caroline's Chinese smiling face. I think she started doing it around Thanksgiving maybe. She gets real excited, smiles, squints her eyes, and starts breathing fast through her nose. We find it pretty amusing.

What Happened to 2007?

Holy cow! The months have flown by and I need to update I guess. Let me catch everyone up. Last thing I remember was Thanksgiving I think. We were able to see a lot of our families.

Caroline and Grandpa in WV

The Schanding cousinsI flew down with the kids (by myself!) to my mom's in Florida the weekend after Thanksgiving (the busiest travel days of the year!) I had been super nervous about the trip but everything went extremely well. I have to give props to Delta.

We decided to put up a real tree even though I was afraid Caroline would knock it down or eat the needles. She hardly bothered it at all as it turned out.The kids had a very nice Christmas. Jonah got the Nintendo DS from Santa that he wanted and Caroline enjoyed all the wrapping paper, and the presents. The big news was that Caroline got her two front teeth for Christmas! The bottom two. I knew they'd come eventually.
We spent New Year's in Nashville where David got to go to see UK in the Music City Bowl. David's sister and family stayed in the same hotel. We had a really good time. Unfortunately I don't have any photos since the batteries in my camera died.

Last but not least, my last day at work was January 4th. Caroline was sick constantly between Thanksgiving and Christmas. We even had to take her to the ER one night. She did have two ear infections at one point but mainly the doctors said it was viruses that she was picking up at daycare. So David and I decided it would be best for me to stay at home. We want to keep Caroline more like this... So everyone should be caught up. Hopefully I'll be able to update more often now.
