Christmas 2008

No tears for Santa this year. She was a little hesitant, but this Santa was slick. He knew how to talk the Santa talk. When it was our turn his elf helper asked the names of the kids and Santa greeted T- with a smooth "T- its great to see you again, it's been a while since we've talked". That did it for T- he was in, G- needed a bit more - however once she was by his side she would't shut up. She had a lot to tell Santa, none of it was about her Christmas wishes but Santa took in all in stride.

Merry Christmas To ME!

Having a gadget junkie husband has it perks. This camera is something I'd NEVER buy for myself. I didn't even think I needed it, I love my trusty Rebel. However my beloved, generous husband bought me a new and even better camera for Christmas. What a great holiday surprise this baby was!

What You Don't See....

You can't possibly see how quickly the crocodile tears were turned on when I discovered this scene. Or how funny hubby and I both thought it was, but NO WAY could we let on that we thought this was funny. Nor is it possible to see the diaster that I found. She was supposed to be in bed sleeping, instead she jumped the gate and made her way downstairs to create chaos while I was cleaning the kitchen. Water was everywhere, soap all over the counter, wet soggy kleenex in the drain and as you will see in the next picture, a little person (actually it was the baby "taking a bath") was floating in the toliet. Thank GOD nothing else was floating in there.
