Christmas-time with a new baby

Wow have we had a busy December so far. Elliot has been a wonderful addition to our family and we are enjoying our time together before I have to go back to work. It's wonderful to be able to spend our evenings as a family. Hopefully one day I can work days, although for now working evenings sure does help with the daycare bill. James loves his new little brother and finds it hilarious when Elliot gets the hiccups. A big smile comes to his face whenever he sees Elliot. We are lucky enough to be able to make a trip back to ND for Christmas this year! I am most definately excited for the rest of my family to see James and meet Elliot. I'm also excited to meet/hold Seth for the first time and meet Avery and of course see my godson Austin and his sister Brooklynn. Living in WI is great but it's so far from my family and with my older brothers also having small children it makes travel for us all a little challenging. I feel like I'm almost done Christmas shopping and I mailed my Christmas letter today. I must say it's nice to be off work from Thanksgiving to New Years. All in all our family is happy and healthy and I hope yours is too.
