  • Seriously?

    My last post was in November? Holy cow! We have been incredibly busy, obviously! We've had endless trips to the library, the most recent one was a new one for us. My son felt the need to talk to the librarian at the circulation desk when she commented on how many books we got out (for the record, we only got out 17 that day). He said, "Well, I'm just a regular nerd!"  Hehe. Cute, yes?

    Let's do a little catch up, shall we? Christmas was wonderful.  William got up at 6am, and first thing I did was made sure he had on CLEAN pajamas. Last year he managed to spill food on his pajamas before we opened presents. All of his pictures show that. I was so embarrassed! :(   William SLOWLY opened each present, and then proceeded to open the box, open the toy, assemble the toy with Daddy's help, and then play with it for a while before he moved on to the next present.  I was able to shower and make some cinnamon rolls in between him opening  gifts. We spent the day with my sister and the family. Had loads of fun, as well as loads of gifts for the kiddies. Way too much stuff, to be honest.

    We've been spending all these cold days either in the house baking, or going to the library, an occaisional trip to Chuck E Cheese, a few playdates, and watching children's movies. We do crafts, color, schooling at home, read books and do puzzles. We play with Sami and Sophie, and sometimes Gabby comes.

  • Today, we did crafts. We made some Christmas ornaments out of some foam kits that Nick brought home for us. Needless to say, William decided to tear them apart before night time. Oh well. We still had fun assembling them!

    I've got a lot of fun crafts planned up ahead for us. Our next project is to make some snowmen out of those tin foil pans that pies come in. We've gathered enough now to make two snowmen. We will paint them white, and then assemble them. I am knitting or crocheting scarves for them. Stay tuned!

  • We celebrated Thanksgiving at home. I am extremely thankful for having everything I need in life. 
    I am most thankful for my husband and my son.  I could not live without them. They both make my world go round.
    I am thankful for my family, my friends, and every single person I've come into contact with that made me smile. 
    I am thankful for free library books, DVR, diet pepsi, and cheese.
     I can't say my thighs are thankful for the cheese though.
    I am thankful that we have a safe, warm place to live.
    I am thankful that we have food on the table every night.
    I am thankful that we have hot water.
    I am thankful that we have medical coverage.
    I am thankful that we make each other laugh.

    Here was our thanksgiving.
    William likes to smack the turkey before it goes in the oven

    I had my little helper basting the turkey.

    While

    While the turkey was in the oven, and I was preparing vegetables, I was smelling this candle, and drinking my version of Starbucks frappuccino. Those suckers cost five bucks a piece at Starbucks!

    The results of a long day cooking.

    I made turkey, rolls, mashed potatoes, au gratin potatoes, carrots, brussell sprouts, corn, peas, french green beans and some more stuff. We also made a pumpkin cheesecake. YUMMY!

  • Today, we attended a birthday party for a little girl- at Chuck E. Cheese! We had so much fun, and it was GREAT seeing some women from a mother's group I am in!

    Because I did not get permission, I am not sharing pictures of the party with other people's children. Sorry! :)

  • Let me shock you.

    We put our tree up today.

    As in Christmas Tree!

    I guess it was tiring, because William fell asleep on Daddy shortly after.
    I will post pictures of the tree in December, as we are not done decorating it yet.
