Okay, that last part was sarcasm, but still. It's so lovely to just sink into the fact that the Christmas hectic-ness is over. Ya know? I'm sure plenty of people are still celebrating with family today, but we are done. LOVELY, I say. The moment we throw Oliver in his bed for naps we are taking down the Tree. On Tuesday, it shall go to the wood-chipping plant. (I wish our fire place was wood, and then it would get chopped up for next year's fires... but alas, we've a gas fire place...)
YAY!
But still our holidays were filled (and I do mean FILLED) with beauty and family and food (SO MUCH FOOD) and joy.
And now the pictures.
On Thursday (Christmas Eve EVE) we headed to SLC on the train to see Derek's brother and his family. "Cousins" are a magic word with my boys. The adore their cousins and love when we get together. They also, as we had hoped, LOVED riding the train down. It was so nice to sit and ride with them for a half hour rather than try to brave the craziness of driving in the city. We went to the Children's museum and a delicious dinner and this is the only picture I took because I forgot my camera.

Christmas Eve was spent eating at my parents' house and then heading home for new Christmas Jammies. I made them months ago and as I suspected, Oliver's were too small if he's in a cloth diaper and barely fit in a disposable. So he may not ever wear them again, but dang they were SO cute and match-y. SO CUTE!

This picture is purely for proof of Ezra's constant up-chucking. We're trying to regulate his meds but it's REALLY hard when the moment he wakes up he's STARVED and asking him to wait 20 minutes for his meds to kick in is impossible. So, he pukes up his meds WITH his food. NICE. See how wet he is? The dark spots on his shirt are spit-up.

Then we headed down to the 'rents again, where I took no pictures because I sat on the couch and rocked Ezra the entire time because I had a horrendous headache.
And now, here I sit, still (again) rocking Ez, in my jammies, my hair a HOT MESS, and it's nearing 11am. Everything is exactly as it should be.
Merry Christmas and Happy Boxing Day!

I know it's a super hassle to come to the 'rents' house, but it makes our Christmas just as I envisioned it (kind of like how you envisioned yours) with all the kids, chaos and crying (from Lexicon about Caleb). So thank you for braving everything to come to us. We loved sharing that part of the day with you.
Love ya,
MA
Morgan you amaze me, you managed to gestate, give birth, care for your other small children AND make handmade gifts. Seriously need to change the saying to "keeping up with the Hagey's". You deserve all kinds of wonderful, you are an awesome Mommy!
Wow, I'm impressed you made all those! The batcave looks especially awesome. You truly are a super momma.
