Today’s picture is one of J's Christmas pictures. Thank you Big Bird! You're the best photographer ever!
Hooray! It’s finally Friday! I have made it through another week. December is just flying by this year. Tomorrow we are supposed to have my company Christmas party, then next Saturday is R’s, then the weekend after that is Christmas weekend! I can’t believe it. When am I going to have time to shop? Well, good thing I don’t plan on buying much this year. As always, I will buy for my nieces and parents, and for the gift exchanges we participate in. R and I aren’t buying for each other this year. We aren’t even sure if we’re buying anything for J. After all, he will be more than adequately spoiled by his many aunts, uncles, and grandparents. And he is young enough that he won’t know the difference. But on the other hand, it just doesn’t feel right. We’ll see.
Well, the big news for today is that J now has two teeth! His second one came through yesterday. Now he has his two bottom front teeth. Yay! Now hopefully he’s done being a booger head for a while! Also, I finally got that stupid tree finished last night. It looks very lovely and I am happy with it. I didn’t put nearly as much on it as I usually do, but it’s nice. I’ll have to get a picture this weekend to post for you.
Last night was pretty nice. R didn’t work yesterday due to the ice on the roads. So he was home when I got home. We looked at some catalogs together, then I went to pick up J. He was doing very well yesterday, other than not really wanting to eat. We came home and he was happy to play on the floor and play with Daddy while I straightened up the kitchen. I put some hamburgers on the foreman for supper. Easy pleasy. We ate while watching “Are you smarter than a fifth grader.” Then I gave J his supper and then J and I had a bath. Daddy took care of his bedtime routine so I could get myself cleaned up after J was clean. So J ended up going to bed by 9:00. R went downstairs to play a computer game and I finished my tree. (Whew) Then we cuddled on the couch for a little more TV, and it was off to bed. I slept so soundly. It was great. J slept all the way through for the first time in a long time. (he doesn’t get up in the night, but often cries a little, or scoots himself up to the top of the crib, making his angel monitor alarm go off.)
This morning was great. Everyone woke up in time, things were going smoothly, J was happy. We were just about to walk out the door to take him to his grandma, when…..
BLECH!!! Right down the front of my shirt! Yep, that’s right, baby verp smack in the middle of my chest. I was wearing a V-neck shirt, so it was largely on my skin. I had made the mistake of sitting down to feed J without a burp rag, so there was nothing I could do but sit up and let in run down my cleavage and into my fresh clean bra I had just put on this morning. EEEEWWWWW!!! So we ran a little late this morning. LOL He’s a smart boy, though. He didn’t get a drop of it on himself.
The weather is greatly improved today over yesterday’s icy morning. I sounds like we will have plenty of ice tomorrow, though. So I don’t know what that will do to our company Christmas party. Hopefully it’s fine to go out by the evening.
Well, everyone have a good weekend, and I will see you again on Monday. Merry Chrismas!!!
