This year's holidays have been a little different for us because of McKenna being sick. She got sick in Oklahoma during our Thanksgiving time and then she started to cough the day before we left for TN :o( We ended up having to take her to the pediatrician while in Cleveland. She tested positive for R.S.V. (a respiratory virus). Although it was sooooooooooo good to be with family and friends, we were a little preoccupied with our little one and her health. Luckily we seem to be back on the road to recovery. Hopefully we can kick this thing soon. The weather in TN made it feel like Christmas. Saturday was warm enough to be in short sleeves, but every day after that we were bundled up and had the heat going! The entire fam got together at Dave's parents' house that Saturday. We had a blast watching the kids open their presents and us adults stuffed ourselves with all of the holiday treats! It was good to see our sweet nephew, baby Eli, who is 2 months old now! The 3 of us got to go into Knoxville on Sunday. We saw my aunt, uncle, cousins, Chad and Jennifer (McDuffie) Eidemiller, and Sam and Emily (Evans) Wright. Thank you Jennifer for the yummy dinner and Em for the dessert! It was such a quick trip, but were so thankful for ANY minutes we could get with them.
Dave had to work Christmas day so we were home the night of the 24th. We openned our presents from each other and had a quiet night at home. Christmas day McK and I started out slowly...playing with some of her new toys. We ended up over at my girlfriend Kim's house. She made the most delicious meal and we were able to relax and enjoy the day. Thanks Kim! We were home in time to get Miss McK to bed and to talk to Dave on the phone before my bed time! It's been different...an OK different...I'm thinking from here on out, every year will be different! :o)
I splashed some other pics in the slide show of McKenna and I just hanging out at the house. She is learning and changing right before our eyes. I will post her 6 month update soon...just wanted to get some Christmas pictures up before it got too late. Hope each of you and your's enjoyed this Christmas season....now....on to New Year's!

YAY! Looks like yall had a great time! Your right I think every year after you have a little one it is a little different, not necessarily bad, just different! I am so glad that little McKenna is getting better. I have been praying for her and you. I know that it must have been hard on you not being at home and having her that sick! Miss you lots! Love you!
