Reflections on 2010......


I sit in a very quiet home right now with all my children sleeping and my husband trying not to fall asleep........it is very peaceful....it is nice!!!! As I sit here I am reflecting on the last 365 days.....we have had many, many changes this year.....we bought a new home, moved and didn't sell our 1st home for over 6 months, Jacob graduated from developmental preschool, Jacob started kindergarten, Maxwell started preschool, Carter turned 1, bought Paul got his first riding lawnmower, and many more amazing things. We learned a lot this year....we grew a lot this year! While there we times this year that were super tough to get through, we did it and looking back on it, we are stronger than ever.....And that is a good thing! We are excited about 2011 and what we have to look forward to....more changes and more fun!!!! See you in 2011......

Mixed Reviews on Meeting with Santa Claus




We have had a very busy month!!!! In less than a week Christmas will be here! WOW! The boys are so excited!!!! Last week Carter, Max and I went to the mall to pick up a few last minute things and decided to swing by to see if we could meet Santa....there wasn't a line....we were very excited!!!! We walked right up......Max started chatting right away, it was pretty cute. I put Carter in Santa's lap and took a few steps back to snap a photo....it wasn't good!!! Carter was not happy to be sitting in the lap of Santa!!!! I did catch it on film! LOL.....Max had a great time!

A Crazy Week!!!!



It has been a crazy week in the Creedon home..... Jacob had his Endoscopy/Colonoscopy and Given's Capsule Study at Massachusetts General Hospital in Boston this week. The Given's Capsule Study is a 9 hour test where a camera capsule is placed in his body and takes a photo every 2 seconds inside his body. Since we live so far away from Boston, we had to stay there for the entire day. The hospital was nice enough to give us tickets to the New England Aquarium. We had a great time. Jacob was such a good sport. We walked from the hospital all the way to the Aquarium......just a couple of hours after he had his colonoscopy and endoscopy....he is such a trooper!

The Decorating of the Christmas Tree


Decorating a Christmas tree when you have small children is a big event! It was no different in our home this year!!!!! We live in Maine.....but decided to get an artificial tree this year.....not because we don't want a real one, but because we wanted to put it up early and we have a wood stove.....a real tree wouldn't last long with a wood stove around.....it would be branches with pine needles on the floor.....so I went to Home Depot on Black Friday and bought a pre-lit 7 foot tall tree!!!! And it is beautiful! We had so much fun decorating our tree!

It's the Most Wonderful Time of the Year!


Wow! Where has the time gone.....it has been several weeks since I have blogged! I have been super busy! I got a new camera.....after the caramel topping incident at Disney World, my Nikon D40x just wasn't the same....so time for a new one....the brand new Nikon D7000.....she is awesome....it isn't as simple as my D40x, so it has taken some getting used to!


We have been very busy in the last couple of weeks preparing for Christmas..... I promise to keep up a little better!!!!
