Merry Christmas

Twas the year 2011 In the Tregaskis Home
We've had a lot of big changes. See how we've grown

This years best news just happens to be
The addition of Sophie Eliza, girlet #3
With 6 lbs 15 oz and 20 inches of skinniness
She sure fills our home with joy and happiness
Her gastro-intestinal music arrays
Keep us busy all night and all day
Her smile is adorable
She's got 2 dimpled cheeks
We love her completely
And we've only had her 3 weeks.

Next from the pileup we have Kate Esther
She keeps us in stitches
She's our royal court jester.
She loves to read books.
She's obsessed with horses and Halloween.
She's one of the most independent toddlers we've seen.
She's a super good cuddler.
Most of her words end in K.
Abi's her best friend.
We can't help but love her more each day.

Abigail Maye is as busy as can be.
She loves dolls, painting, cooking, pbskids.org and especially TV.
She's very considerate, always thinking of others.
She told me she wants 2 more sisters AND 5 brothers. (yikes!)
She's learned her alphabet and numbers
And even how to ride a trike.
She loves to hold her baby sister,
Which her sister DOES like!
She's got the vocabulary of an 80 year old
And she's gaining the wisdom to match it.
She's great at telling stories.
We just love her, every bit.

Dedra's been busy
As busy as can be.
Besides raising kidlets,
You can find her on Etsy.
From bow ties to clip art
and digital paper packs too
Her profits have kept us from feeling blue.
She's been super resourceful
Making do with what we've got.
And after over 50 showings,
She helped our house to get bought.

Richard has been a super hero all year.
He works, serves, and has played Mr. Mom
And he still has only 1 working ear.
He's been Mr. Fix-It
From cars to the house to boo-boos.
He's kept his chin up despite constant bad news.
The girls all scream with glee
When he walks through the door.
He's everyone's favorite
And is never a bore.
He's looking forward to a new house with new projects
And maybe soon we'll move if no one like the bank objects.

We hoped you've enjoyed a look at our year.
Merry Christmas to you and the best for next year!
