Whew, we've been busy!

Ok, I know I promised house pictures and I will get them up soon but things have been CRAZY! We had to make an emergency trip to Michigan the beginning of November because my brother Gene lost his battle with pancreatic cancer and passed away. It was a very sad time for me, Gene was the brother I was closest to growing up, not in age or anything, but I always had a bond with him that I did not have with my other brothers. Being adopted makes it rough some times!
On the way home from Michigan we stopped through Chicago and took some pictures and also St. Louis so I will have those pictures to post as well!
This past weekend we had Caleb's 2nd birthday party! We had a Thomas the train theme and he had a great time! (Pictures to come soon!)
Caleb is enjoying school and growing like a weed! Thankfully though I think that his foot growth has slowed some. Thank goodness! He's in a size 9 right now and I am really hoping he stays there for a while. :-)
We are looking forward to Christmas with the kiddos and plan on just sticking around home. We have done a lot of traveling this year, some not by choice, but now it is nice to just stick to home and try to relax a little bit.
I have included a couple of pictures we took this past weekend. The first is Caleb and I after his birthday party...Aunt Mandy snapped this one while we were dancing. Caleb is such a happy kid and this picture really really shows that! He is also very loving and always giving kisses and hugs and telling us he loves us. The second is Caleb doing is rock star hair impression. LOL. I will try to post more soon! Hopefully I can get them online during winter break from school!
Much Love
