Abs & Ian on Christmas. They are growing into fine young people!<br />
<br />

Spend time, be kind & serve one another. Make no
room for regrets. Tomorrow is not promised & today is short.”</span><br />
<span style="font-size: small;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;">A few years ago I started taking group photos of the
grandkids on my husband's side of the family. (Click each year to see
those - <a href="http://melaniescrafts.blogspot.com/2012/01/grandchildren.html" target="_blank">Christmas 2011</a>, <a href="http://melaniescrafts.blogspot.com/2012/04/sunday-citar-family.html" target="_blank">Easter 2012</a> & <a href="http://melaniescrafts.blogspot.com/2012/12/family-photo-time.html" target="_blank">Christmas 2012</a>)
I had meant for it to be an annual thing, but that never happened.
This year I finally got around to it. Man have these kids changed in 4
years!</span><br />
<br />
The one <span style="font-family: inherit;">thing that hasn't </span>changed is that they are all goofballs. This is what I get when I try and do the silly one 1st. Lily was upset because she knows putting your middle finger up is wrong. <br />

Almost 2 years! While I have posted in <a href="https://www.instagram.com/whimsicalcreations/" target="_blank">instagram</a>, <a href="https://twitter.com/MelaniesCrafts" target="_blank">twitter</a> & on <a href="https://www.facebook.com/WhimsicalCreations/" target="_blank">facebook</a> (personal page & <a href="https://www.facebook.com/WhimsicalCreations/" target="_blank">fan page</a>) over the last 2 years, my little blog has taken a backseat. I have wanted to post so many times, but never seemed to find the time. <br />
<br />
Soooo much has happened in 2 years. <br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">The highlights...</span><br /><ul>
<li>We sold our Tiny House & MOVED! (a few miles away, lol)</li>
<li>I now have a full time job outside of the house!</li>
<li>I still make clay pieces and <a href="https://www.etsy.com/shop/melaniescrafts" target="_blank">my etsy shop</a> is still open. </li>
<li>I did 4 craft shows this year and had an open house.</li>
<li>My husband has a new job.</li>
<li>My son is in high school and is almost 6ft tall.</li>
<li>My daughter is in a different elementary school (same district) and is now in 3rd grade.</li>
<li>Jeff & I Rocked our Disney Side and did the 24hour day at Magic Kingdom! (without kids) </li>
</ul>

I went to grab my camera and she had moved. <br />
<br />
This is where I found her. <br />
<br />
Crouched by the heat vent.<br />

When I asked her why she moved, she told me that the heat was blowing and she wanted to sit by it.<br />

I remember doing the same thing when I was kid.<br />
<br />
Proud parent moment. We had Lily's parent teacher conferences last Thursday. She is doing amazing in school. She is already reading at a 2nd grade level. Way to go, Lils!! <br />

I can not believe the kids were this little when I started this blog. Ian is 7 & Lily is almost 2 in these pictures. It's crazy Lily is now the age Ian was in these pictures. That smiley little boy is now taller than me. <br />

For years I have wanted to try and do the 365 photo challenge. As with
any challenge, the beginning is great. I was posting them
to instagram every night and then forgot. I still took photos almost
everyday though. (I missed 5 days.) Helps when I am working on products. ;) <br />

I have never gone a whole month not writing on here since I started the blog in 2008. <br />
<br />
Lots of stuff has happened since Christmas. <br />
<br />
I am finally feeling better. Thankfully. Pneumonia sucks & Pleurisy is AWFUL!! Just sayin. <br />
<br />
Here is to a fabulous February!!<br />

Santa was very generous this year. My living room looks like a toy store blew up. We spent the afternoon with great friends and had an amazing time. <br />

On a personal note, I ended up in the ER on Monday night in a lot of pain. After some tests, I found out I have pleurisy (<span class="st">inflammation of the membrane surrounding the lungs)</span>. I am grateful that I no longer have pneumonia (it's all gone according to the x-ray) and that I do not have a blood clot (was a possibility). After some pain medication along with some anti-inflammatory meds, I am feeling much much better. Here's to a new year and a clean slate.<br />

Where does time go?<br />
<br />
I took so many photos so I am going to write a few posts instead of cramming this one full of them. <br />
<br />
She was so excited to open her presents. I got her to wait until 9am. Which is really hard for an excited 7yr old.<br />

<br />
At least missing from this blog. <br />
<br />
Here is the scoop. <br />
<br />
I ended up with the Flu the weekend after Thanksgiving. The flu sucks! Then I went to the dr on Mon, Dec. 9th and found out I have pneumonia. Pneumonia SUCKS!! I am feeling much better than I did, but no where 100%. For the last 3 weeks I have been sick. I can tell you this is NOT how I wanted to start my 40's and the holiday season.<br />
