Babyhood

Just got through putting the boys to bed.  As I was sitting in the dark rocking Brody, I just snuggled my nose into the curve between his soft, freshly bathed neck and shoulders and inhaled.  I can 't believe how fast his babyhood is slipping away especially since he is my last one.  For now I'll just have to be content to breathe him in...

Today's post is about my kids' favorite Christmas book.  It has been Boone's favorite since 2005, so this is our third Christmas reading it almost every day during December.  Brody likes it just as much as his big brother. 

 

But today...Tivo recorded the Movie!  Can you believe it!  The boys have watched it twice already since we've been home.  The quality of the recording isn't that great and the animation isn't nearly as pretty (in my opinion) as the illustrations in the story.  I originally bought the story for my nephew, Tyler but loved the story so much that I bought a copy for Boone too.  We know have THREE copies: a regular book, a board book and a mini book that came with an ornament.  So cute...

Oh yeah!  I elfed us last night.

Quick today... Spent the evening with some of Josh's family.  It was Nanny Pam's birthday! She is still in town from South Carolina so we got to celebrate with her and have some yummy mayonnaise cake.  I know, sounds disgusting, but is ever so good.  

Happy Birthday Pam!

A little at a time...

That is how we decorate the Christmas tree at our house.  So, its partially done.  The lights are up and Boone and I finished hanging one box of ornaments.  Between having two little kids and a husband who a) does not love ornaments like I do and/or b) is working out of town, this type of project takes time.  It should be completed sometime in the next week or so :)

PS.  Finally got a Winter Blog Banner Up!  Nope, not new PSE, just put the PC back up so that we can be really geeky and have four computers in one house.  Actually I am taking a PSE class on brushes that I paid for before we bought the Mac and setting the PC back up was the cheapest way to get around that little problem.

Today we went to Klicker's to get our Christmas Tree. As soon as we pulled into the tree lot, it started snowing.  I don't even think that it was forecast for today. Here is Boone picking out his favorite.

At Klicker's they had baby reindeer this year. They were so cute but we got there just at nap time so they were a little sleepy. The boys were pretty excited! Doesn't Boone look like Pocahontas with his hat braids?

By the time we left, snow was everywhere!  There was even a truck that did a 180 on the highway. As we cruised up the street to our house, "Let it Snow" came on the radio.  How cheesy is that?  We had a fun hour though, we had to hurry to get home to watch our Seahawks cream the Cardinals!  Now if Brody sees a Seahawk emblem anywhere he yells, "Hawks, Hawks!" All in all, a good Sunday in December :)
