I'm so happy that I got a picture of the kids first brotherly kiss. Eban was so sweet as Jackson was a tad fussy and he went over and gave him a kiss on the cheek. I was simply swelling with pride as it was such a tender moment. I can't wait to see more of them...
I received a phone call from Ellen Swe

Well, we have received numerous shipments in the past 24 hours to our house. Seamus has gone crazy with every doorbell ring and therefore Eban runs to the door with the big mastiff who guards us with a vengeance. Last night, we had a guy come to the door around 7pm to sell us water...no business card, no web address, no professional clothes, and just a tad sketchy. He even kindly asked me for our phone number and I dryly said no. Times like that, I'm happy to have Seamus peering through
my legs while growling to let these solicitors know that they are unwelcome. If it's kids selling cookies or pies, I promptly tell Seamus to sit and be quiet which he obliges to.

Last night, we received a huge box of goodies from Chicago and we opened it to remove the wrapped gifts within the box and then Eban went nuts with the bubble wrap. He loved it so much and then we colored all over the box. It was hours of free entertainment. 
I'm sure Grammy Swooz, Uncle Steve, and Anna had no idea that the bubble wrap and the box were great gifts too!!

Grandpa Morgan got for Eban for Christmas. I painstakingly put it together. It took awhile and once it was done, Eban loved sitting there. Nani put Jackson at the table 
with Eban and they giggled together. It was so darn cute. I'm a bit miffed that the photos I took are blurry but maybe it was because I was laughing so hard...oh well. I loved seeing Jackson have a huge grin while looking at his big brother!

appy...he gets agitated quickly in his high chair.Today, I need to research Paraguayan and Polish Christmas recipes as I want to include traditional meals for the guests who are with us from other countries. I hope to get creative and make something to reflect Nani's and Anna's cultures, but we'll see. I'm having difficulty finding 
easy recipes. All of them are so detailed and I'm not that good with the time it will take to create those dishes as I have two kids to tend to as well...we'll see how this works out...
