The Cornelius Clan

Just a quick update ...
We had another successfull Christmas. We woke up around 7:00 to open presents and eat breakfast then we headed off to Grandpa and Grandma's house to spend the day with my family. We had a very yummy dinner and played games and spent the day relaxing and enjoying one another. It was fun to have everyone together! When we arrived home that evening the kids said they had the best Christmas and received everything they wanted. It is so nice sometimes to have a budget! The kids (and mom) didn't feel overwhelmed with too many presents! Ty said I went a little crazy because I took down the Christmas tree Christmas evening. My neighbor told me the next day at church that she had to laugh when she drove by and saw my tree already outside. As I had Ty throw it out the door Crey said, "It's kind-of sad; that was a beautiful tree." Sorry little buddy! We just don't have the room in our little house for a big tree, even if it was beautiful!
New Year's Eve was enjoyable spent with Brandon and Jessie and some friends. We played games and, again, ate food! (Eating is what I do best :0)) Crey didn't quite make it to midnight but Tylie stayed up and later commented that it was a little stupid.**chuckle**
We really enjoyed the Christmas break from school. I was so sad to see my kids start back to school Monday. This week seems to be dragging on without my sweet kids at home with me! I miss them during the day and can't wait to see them walk in the door when they get home!
Ty hasn't been working much the last month and a half. It has been really stressful because of the money. It is hard with a one person income! Paying doctor bills for this pregnancy has taken its toll on us! We continue to pray that he will be able to keep a job this winter!
I am doing well. I have just over 7 weeks until my due date. It seems like this pregnancy has flown by but it also feels like I have been pregnant forever. I am incredibly huge again. The baby is growing and so is mommy! I had another doc. appointment yesterday and all looks well! Crey is so good to me and is constantly making sure I'm not over doing it. He talks to, hugs and kisses my belly everyday. He thinks this little brother is never coming out! 51 more days!!!
My little critters and both doing very well in school! It is fun to see Tylie learn her multiplication facts and division. Crey is reading very well and loves to pick out new books to try to conquer. It is fun when they finally grasp something and it makes sense to them :)
We will keep everyone updated on our little family and I will try to post pictures soon. For some reason blogger has been giving me grief and won't download my pictures for me :/
