With only two weeks to go until Christmas, we're settling into the holiday season without too much seasonal stress. The tree is decorated, the stockings are hung and the lights are strung on the outside of house. Both the boys have wish lists long enough to wrap around our house twice, and Alex is already trying to help Santa out by stuffing his stocking with his own Star Wars guys.
All kidding aside, we really did enjoy "trimming" the house this year with the kids. More than any year before, this year the boys - especially Jack - seemed to really remember and cherish the holiday traditions we have started since becoming a family - and that is pretty neat.
We hope our Christmas card finds you all well and enjoying the holiday season. Except for an ear infection, our house is healthy and looking forward to the new year. 2007 was a big year for us with the start of kindergarten for Jack. We enjoyed visiting family and friends throughout the year and look forward to adding a new family member with the birth of our third child this spring. The boys are increasingly becoming excited about the baby's arrival - we're not sure if they are excited about the actual baby or the fact that they are getting new bedrooms - but it's excitement nonetheless.
We can't wait to see you all over the holidays and into the new year. Merry Christmas!
Love,
Leslie, David, Jack and Alex
