Xmas in NY

Let me begin this entry by noting that about 45 minutes away from Katie's with 2 screaming children in the backseat, Jim and I realize that we forgot to pack any food for Hillary. Food for which she was screaming. Luckily, I woke up with an ear infection that morning and was deaf in my right ear. This deafness would be the only peace and quiet I received for the remainder of the car ride. Katie was kind enough to run out and buy us formula so that it was ready and waiting upon our arrival. This incident did not prevent Jackie from busting a move with Grammy, Pops and cousin Griff shortly upon our arrival.
These pics are out of order, as per usual. On Xmas morning, Jax got to bond with Aunt Kate and Finley by playing Barbies. I think it's clear where Jackie gets her hair color from!
This was Christmas morning too, I think. Griffin and Jax playing piano. Below is also Xmas morning- 3 kids playing on Griffin's new horse. This provided hours of entertainment.
Below is Aunt Betty and Hillary on Xmas Eve. Hillary loves Aunt Betty.
Below are all the kiddos except Hillary. Imagine a screaming baby sitting amongst the children- that screaming baby would be Hillary. Sweet Hillary!

Above is a picture I love of Pops, Griff and Jax. Jackie has been talking non stop about her cousins and aunts and uncle on this side. She really got to spend a lot of time playing with her cousins and now loves to point them out in our photo albums at home. It's really cute.
