Christmas with the Delaneys

I get an F for taking pictures while the Delaneys were here. We didn't even get a group shot. Bummer! We had a great time while they were here - especially Jackson and Cooper. Mawmaw and Pawpaw, Aunt Ali and Aunt Coco took them to parks, out to lunch, bookstores, and to play at the sand park.
Oh, Just before they arrived we received an awesome package of food from Colin's cousin Bill, and his girlfriend, Rita. Check it out!
I had just told Colin how I have always wanted to get one of these! I'm still confused how cheese and sausage ship without being refrigerated. It has everything from fruitcakes to garlic flavored beef logs!

The boys LOVE their new costumes - a police officer and a construction worker.





After all the present opening, Jackson and Charlie played on the floor for a while. Charlie enjoyed some of his new toys, while Jackson picked out his toe fuzz. Awesome!

Colin cooked some yummy steaks with blue cheese and onion sauce, mashed potatoes, and salad. Delicious. All I did was set the table.


It was so nice to eat a nice dinner all together - especially now that we have hardwood floors under our dining room table instead of carpet!

In other news, Charlie's Upper GI came back normal. All the anatomy is correct. So, we will go back to our pediatrician in a month for a weight/length check and are praying that he can start to gain some weight. He's so little! I feel like I can't feed him anymore, because his already insane amount of spit up just gets even worse. He almost seems to spit up more than the extra food I give him. So, we're hoping with three meals a day, nursing 4 x a day, and maybe a little afternoon snack in there, that he can start to gain some weight. Please keep him in your prayers. We just want him to be healthy. I'm hoping he can start to keep more of the milk and/or solids down.

Can't wait to post pictures of Christmas day. It was wonderful! I feel like when I publish a post, I'm recording memories to go back and look at later. I don't want to forget how excited Jackson and Cooper were today .
