Christmas was really fun. We went to Albuquerque and spent 2 1/2 weeks with Kyle's family. It was nice because we were able to relax a lot and just hang out. His mom planned this fun thing where everyone (over 12) had a turn cooking dinner each night, because let's be honest, cooking for 17 people for 2 1/2 weeks is enough to kill someone! :) Anyway, since everyone only cooked a couple times, they all wanted to make their favorite dishes, so we ate some GOOOOD food! But, luckily Kyle's sisters love to exercise as much as I do, and one of them teaches yoga, so I was able to keep the holiday pounds off by exercising with them.
We were also supplied with 24/7 babysitters! Definitely a perk of being the oldest of 9 kids! We were able to go on dates WITHOUT the baby and I could literally forget about my children from time to time. Not gonna lie...it was great! A much needed break. It was fun to get to spend time with his family since we only see Kyle's siblings once or twice a year. Big thanks to Mia and Gramps for a fun break.
Anyway, school has started again, and I am finally getting the hang of juggling 3 kids, house chores, and cooking meals. Still a work in progress, but at least I don't feel like I am in over my head anymore. I just love my little family and I look forward to the new year and all the adventures it will bring.
And since I can't blog without pics, here are a few we took over christmas. Kyle's not gonna be happy bc some aren't "edited" yet, but oh well!

Love all the pictures. Your kids are so cute and SUCH good mixes of the both of you. I love their little mouths! And don't worry...i go through the same love/hate relationship with blogging, but since i am HORRIBLE at actually writing in my journal i feel even worse when i am behind on my blogging.
You guys, HE IS BEAUTIFUL!
