In 2010, the year started off with lots of drama. This year, no drama - things are nice and settled and calm. And for some reason, we've mostly spent the past month huddled together - our little family of five. We've pulled away just a little from the outside world, not as many play dates and visitors and social events.
We've unplugged the phone lots of nights. Sorry if you've called. And if you know me, you know I check messages about once a month; sorry about that too. We haven't spent much time on the computers or watching TV. Sorry if I owe you an email or blog comment. Once we even ignored a knock at the door. Sorry if that was you.
No, we've been very content to spend our days just hanging out at home. On weekends sometimes we've stayed in our pajamas all day and had leftover breakfast for lunch.
We've been practicing our photography as you can see, we've been sitting around on the floor all watching Henry entertain us, playing the new games we got for Christmas, baking, doodling and practicing writing, organizing the attic, reading, cleaning, talking, taking bubble baths together, deciding to leave that mistletoe hanging in the kitchen doorway... smooching. Things are good here at home. Sorry if I've neglected you, my friends and my blog.

Oh I don't blame you for closing out the world for awhile and just enjoying your family time together...that needs to be done now and then. (:>)
I liked the baaaaaadest joke.
Have a great day!

Honestly, we have kind of been doing the same thing! Corey has taken a lot of time off and we have enjoyed it sooo much! Thanks for your sweet comment about Lexie!

You are taking care of what is most important. Enjoy you time with your children. The outside world will be there tomorrow. Blink and your children are grown. Hugs!
Looks like 2011 has started out perfect for you guys. I think separating yourself from the outside world every once and a while is a wonderful thing to do. Enjoy that beautiful family of yours.
