CHRISTMAS DAY!



AUBREE: Purse from Justice, Wimpy Kid Series, American Girl mini doll with books, microscope, Moon in my room (very cool toy! Its like a nightlight and it comes with a remote and it shows all the phases of the moon!) scooter, doll house, art kits, ds video game, body science kit, and Calico Criters

ADDISON: Purse from Justice, Calico Critters, art set, tea set, American Girl mini doll with book, scooter (A lot of the girls stuff was for them to share)

AUSTIN: Train set, art sets, spiderman car, turtle night light (another very cool toy. Its a nightlight that lights up his room with moons and stars) Monsters Inc., UP,

The girls went to bed early but didn't fall asleep until 9:30. Addie said she wasn't going to bed until we went to bed. It took us 2 hours just to put the doll house together and then the dang train set....! So around 1;30 as I'm laying things under the tree Austin bursts out of his room with a huge grin on his face! We give him something out of his stocking and sent him back to bed. Finally at 2;10am we crawl into bed to be woken up at 3;30am with screaming girls! They didn't go back to sleep! They played in the livingroom (which is right next to our room!) until they could see some sort of daylight.

Later on in the day here was my conversation with Addie:
ADDIE; I wonder what Santa is going to bring us on Christmas
ME; (still in a fog) Ummm what? Santa already came! Where do you think those came from (pointing to the pile of brand new toys!)
ADDIE; Those are just Christmas Eve presents! I wonder what Santa is going to bring me on Christmas Day!

She was confused since she got up so early and it was still dark that it was still Christmas Eve to her.

DAVE'S TRIP TO NEW YORK (without me!!!!!)

So here's pictures of Dave's trip. Pictures that I did not take. Pictures I have always wanted to take. These pictures were taken from a cell phone..GASP! So with a little photo editing I think some of them turned out decent.
Too bad it wasn't my camera...I'm not bitter...

POLAR EXPRESS BELL



One of our Christmas Eve traditions is to watch The Polar Express. I have wanted to do this in the past, but Ive been too lazy. This year I'm worried that its Aubree's last year believing in Santa so I made the 25 minute drive to our "local' craft store. I sprinkled some glitter over the bell and then I will sprinkle some more on top of the box when I lay them underneath the tree.

CHRISTMAS DECOR AT OUR HOUSE



I didn't take my annual trip to Tai Pan this year which saddens me very much. The bottom half of the tree is broken and missing several ornaments due to my 3 year old and David still refuses to put up outdoor Christmas lights (one of his good friend's dad was putting up lights and fell and killed himself so that's David's reason for not getting on the roof...OH P-A-LEEEE-S-EEEEE!!!)

MY 4 DAY PROJECT


The original plan was to paint the room the same color as the rest of the house, but at the last minute I decided to just go ahead and paint it pink. All one color so no taping involved. So i get to Home Depot and at the last minute change my mind to do the ceiling a different color. I chose a very light pink and then a darker pink for the walls. Of course David is worried that theirs going to be weird lines all over the place which of course stresses me out so after I pull the tape I take a fine small paintbrush and very carefully do touch ups all around the room. In the end, David didn't notice my imperfections and likes the color. And no I didn't get lazy by not finishing the rest of the walls, I'm still trying to convince David to do bead board. This is my way of convincing him: Painting the walls as if he's already said yes to the bead board cuz we're pretty much doing it.

SANTA AT KRAVERS





I took the kids to our local restaurant (hey its a small town, we only have one!), but their was hardly anyone there and so each of the kids got to spend a lot of time with him. So word on the street is they want their own computer and a puppy. I hope they're not too disappointed come Christmas morning...

Scared For Life...





All throughout Austin's life he has been tortured by his sisters, although he doesn't know it yet! His sisters have always loved dressing him up and making him attend their tea parties (notice he's in a doll stroller!) Now he just thinks its normal so when the girls are dancing in their ballet attire he runs and grabs a tu-tu. Oh well, something to show his girlfriends when he's older (Oh please be a girlfriend!!!!)

Ahhhh..I can almost hear the silence....


We're in the process of getting a bedroom done for the girls downstairs. No more late night giggling, fighting , me yelling "GO TO BED!!! You're going to wake up your brother and give me an aneurysm!!
