Christmas Day -Bitter sweet- happy yet a little lonely.

I was so excited to finally have Nolan here. I loved every minute I got to hold the little guy with no distractions. I was able to totally focus on him for the day. Listening to every breath and sigh he made- those little noises that I miss when it is crazy at our house.


I was a little sad that I did not get to spend anytime with the kids on Christmas-- But they were having fun with the family and Mike. Poor Carson was sick-- but of course nothing can keep him down he is a trooper. He trucked along keeping up with Garrett and Adison. He took breaks every once in a while and asked Uncle Kevin for stuff like water and blankets.


Mike went home that morning at 7:30 am to see the kids wake up and let them open one present. He napped and came back up before he went to Kevin and Carols for Christmas. My sister Kari and her husband Josh also came to visit. Other than that it was very quiet around here.


Good thing the nurses were all very friendly and came in to keep me company. HA HA. It was also very fun hearing the drama going on in the hallway. Felt kinda guilty I actually go caught in the middle of it. They were performing an emergency C-section and the nurses were arguing about something in the hall as I was going for a walk-- I got so distracted I forgot where my room was.


The kids enjoyed sledding at Carol and Kevins and were wiped when they got home. Luckily Josh took some pictures and made me a copy so I didn't miss everything that day.
