The holiday season- 2019

We had a busy holiday season this year even though we were dealing with a lot of illnesses. Poor Paige could not get over her ear infection. 

We went to our gym's breakfast with Santa the week after Thanksgiving. We had been up almost all night long. I'm not even sure how we made it there.  Poor Paige was just not feeling good but wanted to go so bad. After a visit with Santa, we headed straight to the doctor. Come to find out, Paige's ear infection did not go away, and it turned into a double ear infection. The doctor put her on a strong antibiotic and sent her on her way. 

 The following day we went to Nick Jr. Live. We had VIP tickets that included a meet and greet afterward. 

Paige loved it and had the best time.  

Paige was able to meet Rubble and Dora after. 

That night Paige hit rock bottom. She fell asleep on the couch at 5:30 after her temperature spiked. 

 It took Paige almost a week to get back to normal. She had a fever every night for five or six days, and the medicine tore up her stomach. She was a mess! 

Paige was well just in time for her preschool Christmas party. 

We also celebrated Ella's eleventh birthday with some friends. 

They decorated gingerbread houses, exchanged gifts, ate pizza, and ran all over the house. It was wild, and they had a great time. 

On the last day of school, Paige was leader. It was a fun, easy day. I love seeing her at school with her friends. She loves school and loves all the activities. 

Can you tell how much Adam loves Christmas? He is such a scrooge but goes along with all my plans. We got Starbucks and went to the Fantasy of Lights. I love Christmas lights!!

Adam was LOVING IT!

Adam finally put out our "Christmas lights" two days before Christmas. Better late than never!

We drove through the living nativity. The girls enjoyed it, and Paige was waving at everyone. She couldn't understand why they were not waving back. 

We had a good holiday season. We tried to soak up as much Christmas as we could before the actual day came.  I love everything about the Christmas season, and I'm sad when it's over. Until next year...
