Happy New Year!

I am such a blogger slacker. I could blame on the holidays... or I've just been so busy with work... but in all actuality, I'm lazy. I've been so lucky to be home since the 12th of December. Christmas was wonderful! Ryker loved ripping the paper off his gifts. I was so excited for Christmas because I suprised Scott with a 60" flat-screen TV. I bought it off ShopNBC a few weeks ago and they delivered it the week before Christmas. I hid it in my office in the basement and he didn't suspect a thing!! On Christmas morning 'Santa' left some wildlife watercolors that Scott had been wanting to have framed for so long and a pair of slippers... that was it. We went to my mom and dads for our delicious Christmas breakfast then came home, shortly after that, we went to pick up Cazley and go visit grandma and grandpa Nay in Hooper... we were out there for a while and while we were gone the elves came back by our house because it seems Santa 'forgot' to leave a gift for the family. When we got home from Hooper, oh, I wish I had my camera... Cazley walked up the stairs and when she saw the TV, she just kept yelling down to the garage "Dad, are you kidding me!!" and he just smiled and said "Did Santa leave you something"... and she said "Dad, are you kidding me!!" Scott looked at me and smiled and I told him to hurry up so she could start opening her gifts. I grabbed the diaper bag out of the car and as I headed up the stairs Scott yelled down to me, "Jaym, are you kidding me??"... I laughed so hard. He was sooo suprised and excited. It made it all worth it! Christmas is sooo much fun! Scott suprised me with some diamond earrings... I wasn't expecting anything from him because I had told him that I had bought enough for both of us, so I was excited. Ryker and Cazley got bunches of clothes and toys...

It's nice to be home and be able to spend time with Ryker. He's got three little teeth coming in now, he's rolling around the floor like a tumbleweed and he's in to EVERYTHING he can get in to. It's been so fun to play with him during the day. I've started him back to daycare this week though, I was nervous that he's so used to me being home that once I took him back he'd cry... or that he'd think that I only took him to Miss Shelly's when I was leaving for days so he's spent a few hours a day for the last few days over at her house. He loves it there. He comes home absolutely exhausted! I love knowing that even when he's not at home, with me and Scott, he's happy and he's surrounded by people that love him. It makes going away so much easier.

I can't think of anything new... I hope everyone else had as good of a Christmas as we did.
Happy New Year!!
