Gotta lot of catching up to do!

Since getting my new camera, everytime I try to upload some pictures on the computer it tends to take forever because the file is so large. I have to figure out a way to make them smaller so I can upload them to places like my blog, FB and such without waiting half my life for them to download. Hence the issue tonight. I was going to upload the blog with all the pictures from Christmas till now, however for 5 pictures to "try" to upload it took more than 10 minutes then they didn't even upload. An "error" occured. So let me get this thing figured out and I'll get some pictures posted! In the meantime, here is an update on us.
....We had a great Christmas, Santa knew just what to bring, however he is such a bad Santa and not used to coming here that he wrapped everything but one gift!!
.....We had a blast on New Years. We had some friends come over and 1 of them had a kid Christian's age. So while the kids went upstairs to lay in bed to watch toy story, mom and dad was socializing with friends watching the ball drop downstairs.
......We've had 2 snows this winter so far! One was the day after Christmas and the other was 2 days ago. The kids have had a blast in the snow. Daddy built a "snowho" during the first snowy days. The second snow was very fluffy and not packing snow. But the next day you needed ice skates to get outside since the ice was so thick on the snow!!!
.....We have been out of school from the snow for going on 3 days now. Possibly having to go back on Thursday just to be out again on Friday (teacher workday) and Monday (Martin Luther King).
......Monday night Christian developed a fever of 102. I've been giving him ibruprofin which has been helping him feel like his old self again. Just to have the fever return a few hours later. If he is still feverish in the morning, we will be going to the doctor to see what will break it. Also to find out what I can give Grace if she happens to come down with the same thing. Not sure what it is, he has complained of a tummy ache and sometimes of his head hurting. Dry coughing and fever. Needless to say, we stayed inside today. :)
Ok, that was the short version of what has been going on with us. Hopefully soon I can get some pictures up of the kids in the snow and of Christmas!!! :)
