Okay, so I'm back from Utah and my first week of work is over, so I'm officially not so stressed out. A lot has been going on. We were home for 2 1/2 weeks, and having lots of crazy fun. We spent a week at the Staples', a week at my mom's and then my mom, Russell, Sydney and I drove 11 hours up to Lincoln Montana to see Cody, Holly and the kids. It was a lot of fun to see everyone. To say that we weren't prepared for the snow is kind of an understatement. For about a month before we went I was on a wild search for a winter coat for Sydney. Well, I could never find one, so I sent Sydney and Nick to Utah without a coat, and then I followed two days later and finally found a cute coat. Christmas was great. We spent the day at Katy and Jerry's and it was fun to watch Brooklyn and Sydney open presents from Santa. Then I got to open mine, and Nick got me my new dishes. 14 place settings. I am so in love with my dishes, and Nick too. The day after Christmas we (Sydney and I)went to Cedar, Nick was back in Houston. My family had our annual Bunco game. What a blast. It was so good to see everyone that I haven't seen for a long time. Then it was up to Montana. Oh my gosh Cambree and the boys are so adorable. Sydney and Cambree are hilarious and giggle like little school girls all day long. The twins are the most adorable creatures I have ever seen. When you hold them they just stare at you and smile. So sweet. Then it was back to Houston. It was really hard to leave, because we won't see family until after July when the baby comes. I'm still feeling gross, but not throwing up as much. I'm hoping that each week will get better. Sydney is working on getting potty trained, and that has been quite the project. She never wants to take time out of her busy schedule to take a potty break. Well here are some pictures. Sorry this is a blah blah post.

Sounds like you guys had a wonderful time with family! It is so hard to be so far away from them! I am glad that you are feeling better! Sorry we didn't get a chance to see each other! We will have to find another time when we are in Utah at the same time again!:)
Laurel, I am sorry I didn't get to see you guys while you were here. Is it just me or does Sydney look a little like Holly in the top picture? Love, Love, Love you guys!
It was really nice to see you! My baby will be so old when you finally get to meet him. I hope all the potty training goes good. Although, I did find it quite amusing when Sidney hid behind the tree to poop. She is so cute and silly. Good luck with everything. Love you!
Looks like you had a fun and busy time in Utah/Montana. It always seems to get that way around Christmas it seems. We want to see those preo pics! :) I'm sure your looking great even if you aren't feeling good.
Cute, cute girl! Thanks for coming, we had a blast too.
Glad you guys had a great Christmas. I hate we didn't get together maybe next time. Sydney keeps getting cuter and cuter every new post. Is your sickness getting any easieer? How far along are you now?
Laurel,
I got to thinking... you probablly aren't even showing yet! What was I thinking? Sorry :)
Wow! What a fun trip! The older I get, the more I realize that it is the family time that I look forward to the most! So glad you got to come home and see family!
Yay for catching up on posts and feeling better... a little better at least!! I'm so glad you all got to go home for the holidays (ps. did your sis have twins????) Things are a little wild and crazy around here, but I'm sure sometime next week all call and catch up, I'll have too much free time:( Love ya!
So glad that you got to be with your family. Sydney is so cute in those pictures, I love the crying one. I'm sure she was fine two seconds later. I'm really tempted to hop in my car and come out to Houston for a visit. Love you all.
That picture of Sydney in her beanie is so cute! Oh we just love her...
