As mentioned in my previous post, my family drank a lot of hot chocolate in the weeks leading up to Christmas.  Perhaps it is because it’s freezing outside.  Well, ok, freezing according to Texas standards…but in my defense it has snowed 2 times at our house this year, once on Christmas Eve no less!  And our house is drafty in the back.  And we like chocolate (ovaltine and milk really).  Christmas Eve we all gathered in the kitchen as Jason prepared our tradition of hot chocolate before bed.

through Christmas.  and the sugar rush.  and we did it all relatively healthy.  no surgeries.  lots of breathing treatments.  tons of grandparents.  lots of gifts.  very few meltdowns.  some good food.  way too much hot chocolate.  a getaway for Jase and I (wahoo!!!).  a holiday filled with a whole lot of love.  i’ll be back soon as we try to find some sense of normal again….until then, we’re enjoying my mom being here for just a few more days….

and since I feel bad posting without a pic….one of my three monkeys that I was holding on to until all the gifts were opened….
