HA!

So that "update" on The Girl never happened. OY! We are having computer issues in our home right now and it is best that I do not sit at the desktop computer b/c if takes one more blessed second to upload something I will throw it out a window; the same goes for the laptop just disconnecting itself from the wireless internet and then not reconnecting unless you restart the thing!
Shortly after the last blog post, the kids had colds, we went to NY for Thanksgiving and now the holidays are upon us, so yeah, I'm a little overwhelmed and busy. Right now, The Boy is having 'issues', we've been changing a whole lot of smelly diapers since Friday, but he is still eating normally and he isn't running a fever so I don't know what his deal is. Friday night we found out the hard way that our high chair is broken, The Boy fell out of it FLAT ON HIS FACE while I was a mere 2 feet away. This resulted in massive amounts of crying, a split lip, a fat lip, and a scratch down his cheek. Saturday morning he woke up w/ a messy diaper AND a new cough! WHOO HOOO!! :( Poor guy is really being put through the wringer!
The Girl is still awesome although sometimes she has quite the sassy mouth and we are not huge fans of this development. We were the happy recipients of a hand me down trampoline a few weeks ago and boy does The Girl LOVE it! She would jump for hours if you let her. I really should have taken a picture of her a few weeks ago after we had play date here. She was COVERED in black from the trampoline, black feet, black leggings and black all over her dress that I had taken the tags off of just that morning. Thank God for Shout, rinse cycles, and multiple runs through the washing machine, (oh and bath tubs) b/c now everything is back to its original color. :)

We've been doing a bit of extra driving at night, taking side roads and such to spend a few extra minutes looking at "PRISMAS" LIGHTS! If people could hear The Girls excitement about "PRISMAS" LIGHTS! they would leave them up all year long. She loves ANYTHING, even if it is just one strand of lights across someones eaves, to her it is SO! COOL!!! Makes me wish I did more than I did.

We have C home with us until January, evidently even corporate travel is more expensive during the holidays, so yay for us! :) It is wonderful having him home all this time, but we are getting mighty spoiled and I'm trying not to think about what it will be like when he is back to traveling. :(

Ok, it is my turn to hold The Boy now so C can head off to church.

~til next time!

When Neill and Lisa were little we also rode around looking at "Crippin Slides". We still call it that. Friday night we went to see "The Nutcracker" and we rode around after looking at Crippin Slides. Love you all. Hang in there Garrett. Love, Aunt P
