Craziness abides here

Since there is ample space for toys and such upstairs, we have a rule that toys don't come downstairs. It makes it a lot easier for me to keep the main floor clean, and the girls have a playroom plus their own rooms to keep stuff in. It's worked really well. And then came Christmas. Oh my goodness. Everyone is running amok. I pick toys up and they reappear. It is driving me batty. Hopefully I can restore order soon!

We had a really nice Christmas. The girls were thrilled with the things they received, it was so much fun to watch the three of them. Maddie was super excited about everything and the twins were in awe of the decorations and lights and wrapping paper.

I don't think that I have updated here, I found out in the early part of November that I am starting nursing school (the full-time program) on January 7th! I can't believe it. This is going to be a big change for all of us. I need to do it though. I don't know that the timing will ever be better - there will always some excuse to delay it. Might as well get it done!

Aaron had Christmas off but is working most of the next week to make up for it. We're hoping to go out a week from tomorrow without the girls because it might not happen again until I'm done with my first semester.

Here are some pictures from the last little bit.
