Some sort of "normal"

I have been trying desparately to restore some sort of "normal" to our house! We are still trying to define what that is since Caleb has been born. It still feels like we are in that "recovering" stage that you go through when a baby is born and you don't know what your new routine will be.
We are finally on the mend and I am very glad to be home!

Caleb still has to be away from people for another 2 weeks but he is slowing getting better. Believe me, it was a little scary to see how sick he was. I learned a lot about myself and our family while in the hospital for 5 days and someday I'll blog about that!
Anyway, I very glad we made most of our Christmas cookies before he was born! There are just a few fun ones left to make so we decided to do our cut-outs the other day. The girls had a ball! Adrianna decorated 2 whole trays all by herself and took great care in trying to put as many sprinkles on each cookie as possible! She is getting better slowly but is not quite herself yet.

She was very careful not to get sprinkles on the tray so they wouldn't burn!








Eliza wanted to put every kind of sprinkle on each cookie!
It was so fun to watch her dump huge piles on each one!

















Adrianna also helped me put the red candies on our Christmas wreaths. The actually turned out like green blobs but who cares!:)








Eliza is starting to feel better too and I can't wait to have my happy, fun girl back!

I am praying desparately that we don't get any more sicknesses before Christmas. I have yet to start my Christmas shopping!
