Merry Christmas!


Yes, we have been missing for quite some time, but it has been a crazy couple of weeks.

Here is a recap:


Mia catches a cold
Gabe catches cold

Gabe goes to Denver for a week

My mom comes to visit

Mom catches a cold

I catch a cold

Mom goes home

Mia gets ear infection

I get ear infection

Mia has high fever for 2 days

Mia and I sit in the Lazy Boy for 2 whole days

Mia doesn't sleep

We don't sleep

Two weeks = three trips to the dr = no sleep=no christmas shopping=no trip to see santa=no family pictures=no christmas cards=disappointment. Maybe next Christmas.

Presently, I am happy to report we are on the mend. Mia slept through the night the last two nights. Her cold seems to be gone and ear infection waning. Things look to be getting back to normal.
We head to Denver this week. A storm is coming through promising a white Christmas for all, but that also means our plans to leave Tuesday were postponed until Christmas Day. In any case, I won't be blogging until the new year, so from the Schnelle house to yours...


MERRY CHRISTMAS and HAPPY NEW YEAR!

This year has been a tough one for you and Gabe, but also one of the most wonderful and blessed.

My wish is that you have gotten through the rough bits and now can focus on the wonder that is Mia. Hopefully this next year will be one of positive changes and far less adjustment - a year that will bring comfort and joy, security and self discovery - but most of all love, love, love.

I love you both more than you will ever know - and cannot thank you enough for letting me be a part of this beautiful year with MIa. I love that little girl, oh yes I do!

Give all your 4-leggers a hug and kiss from me.
Be safe driving out here to crazy Colorado.

Know that you are loved and appreciated - and that you bless this goofy gal beyond measure!

I love that dress and the shoes match perfectly. I wish Mia had enough hair for a bow, that would have topped it all off. She looks darling hair or no hair. Give a big Squeeze from Grams and Gramps. :)))

Yep we had a rough start for the Christmas holidays, but we are all well again. I know things didn't go as planned and your Christmas trip to CO was postponed by weather BUT you are there now so Enjoy.

Love you all. XOXOXO

The web cam was a great idea. Now Mia won't forget me between visits, I hope.

Hook up your Dad's so we can talk to Mia while your there.
