Christmas Jams

I told the kids I wanted to take a picture of them in the Christmas pjs. They weren't jumping at the opportunity.



Diva Maeve

Would it kill these kids to sit still for three seconds? Apparently so. The photo was never captured.

He certainly can wear a bow tie


Welcome sweet baby Lucia Veronica

The tenth Cronin grandchild made her grand debut two days before Thanksgiving. I was convinced she was a boy, I thought for sure the girl streak was ending. She is the true definition of a blessing. 

Triming the tree

This was definitely the most challenging year for the tree with the kids. It was constant reminders to leave the precious ornaments alone. We lost a few this year.



Our first trip to Mariano's

I must admit it did not live up to all the hype in my mind. However not the same goes for Ignatius. When we walked into the store you heard "oh wow" from the little man. 

Future running back

I must admit the boy looks good.

Sorry for the absence, but we've been busy

My dear husband had surgery on December 18th. Great timing right? What a winter we've had! 

We were told 8 weeks no weight bearing. He'll be in a boot until at least May. One doctor told Michael it will be 16 months before full recovery is achieved. 

WARNING!!!!! Incision shot….


Poor guy nearly passed out when this was first exposed. I, of course, started taking pictures immediately. 

This is the end result. A metal plate and fourteen screws were removed and replaced with two screws. I'm so proud of Michael and how strong he's been through all this. Also I would like to thank the manufactures of Xanax who saved our marriage on a couple of occasions.
