Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!!! We're in Wisconsin visiting family right now. We've been here for 2 weeks now. I'd say one of our better visits. My mom and I have kept fighting to a minimum, so that's nice! My sister and I are a different story. But that's nothing new, so at least she's making me feel right at home again! But anyways. Christmas went pretty well. Abram got Live Elmo and he LOVES it! It's kind of cute. I can only keep it out for so long before it's driving me insane, so we only see Elmo for about 15 minutes a day! I got some beautiful amazing diamond earrings from Isaac and two ipods from my family and of course my plane ticket home! I think Isaac had a pretty good Christmas too, considering. It sucked for all of us that he wasn't here, but he got the package from Abram and I with some good movies and treats, but an even better surprise was his family sent him a package too! Unfortunately, not too many people from home keep in touch with him. Every time I see people, they ask for his email address, but no one ever seems to follow through. Does that happen to anyone else!? That's annoying to me. Don't ask if you don't really care. But anyways. My mom's dog is very possibly the worst behaved, most annoying dog in the world. So being with her for almost three weeks has really made me miss my dogs and realize that they really aren't that bad! Before I left, they were driving me insane! So I hope they're happy to see me and stay on their best behavior, because supposedly, they are both acting like angels for their new caregivers! I'm ready to come home and get out of this freeeeezing state! The day before I left TX it was in the 70s! I got here the next day and the windchill was negative 20!!! I don't know how I lived here for 2o years! We're really going to have to rethink this moving back to Wisconsin business because I'm not so crazy about that anymore! We won't be moving back anytime soon though! We are officially in the army forever now! Our reenlistment, extension, whatever it is, is done and taken care of. FINALLY! I was starting to wonder if it was ever going to happen!
I think it is finally time to see the ear doctor! While we've been home, Abram has finally gotten his 5th ear infection in 8 months. We're going to a recheck shortly after we get home and I am not leaving Dr Olufs office until we have a referral! I was outside in the cold wind for a bit today and I had ear aches from that, and those went away after a little bit! I forget about how painful that is! No wonder Baby just crawls around crying and wakes up at night crying! That sucks! We also cut our 8th tooth, so he now has his four front teeth on top and bottom. Such a big boy! He's also getting much better at walking. We tricked him into taking a few steps on his own a couple of time and he's now saying more "words"...baba mama nana dada. Dada has been his favorite for months now! It's cute though. I was excited when he finally said mama though. I know he isn't directing it towards me, but it's really sweet.
I will post some pictures from our journey to the Frozen Tundra once we get home. Have a fabulous day and we'll see you soon!!!
Love
Abram, Isaac, Christina, Bill and Kimber!

You freezing your butt off in Wisconsin makes me think of those happy California cows. Looking forward to the photos.
Wow, I thought that Kansas was cold, i think that you have us beat. I have to say that it sure makes it seem much warmer here now after reading this. Thanks for updating, it was good to hear from you, I look forward to seeing the pictures. When are you due back here??
Yes yes! You guys be grateful for above freezing weather!!! I will be back Friday night and I cannot wait to blast my heat above 66 degrees! My mom won't let me turn it higher. My fingers freeze as I type on here! Stupid north!
