December Randoms

*Recently Anthony has taken to answering me, "Yes, officer!!" haha, I'm not exactly sure where he got that from, but I think it's hilarious.

*I wanted to show off our Christmas lights! I love sitting here looking at all the lights feeling all cozy and festive. It's so fun to watch Anthony and Molly get all excited! We also have a sting of big lights hanging up outside in front of the porch. I love how the lights cast a pretty glow on all of the snow. Last year we'd bundle the kids up and go outside and play in the front yard under the lights. Mols was too little to enjoy it, but Anth had a blast. I can't wait to do it again this year and watch the kids have a grand 'ol time!

*I'm so proud of my little Mols! She can say thank you, please, blesh you, hi, and she can nod her head yes or no when you ask her a question......like, "Molly! Do you want to sit in time out? No? Ok then, you need to calm down." :) She is just sooooo dang cute!!!

*I just finished Molly's last Christmas gift. It is a matching Mama/baby bracelet set. I wanted to make it all pearls, but didn't have the finances to buy super nice class A pearls, so I settled for class C pearls and a mix of blue beads. I've wanted her and I to have matching bracelets since the day she was born and I'm stoked I've finally made her and I one. As she gets older, I'd like to eventually make us ones with real pearls. After all, she is my little pearl. I've hung them on her stocking for Christmas! ;)

*I'm super excited for my mom to come for an extended visit on the 15th. She and my sister will be driving up from CA to spend Christmas with us. They haven't been able to visit recently because my mom got a new job, but circumstances have made it so she'll have a few weeks off before having to return the first week of January. Works for me!!! We haven't seen them since August when I had my wisdom teeth removed and my Mama came to take care of me, so a visit is long overdue. 

*Jill was asking to see new photos of my kitties Jack (black kitty) and Charlie (calico kitty), so here they are! Jack's pretty blue eyes have turned green. He is a little rascal and trouble maker. Charlie is my sweet kitty and I love cuddling with him. I mean her. They're getting bigger!!

*I was feeling better yesterday, but today I'm back to feeling pretty rotten. I really want to crawl back into bed and stay all snuggled with my 20 blankets. I think I may lose my voice. Good for the kids, yeah? hehehe! Well, better to get all this sickness out of the way now before my Mom and sister come next Wednesday.

Hauck's Christmas Tree

Mols is napping, Anthony is out with his Papa putting up pretty Christmas lights on the porch, it's dumping snow outside (much to Anthony's joy!!), and I'm all comfy cozy on the couch. Sounds like a good time to show off photos of our Christmas tree!! Yesterday, while I was dying of sickness laying in bed trying to nap with the kiddos jumping all over me, Sammy was out and about doing things. One of which was getting our tree! Yay!

Today the kids and I are feeling much better (still some funky runny noses, but nothing we can't handle), so it was time to break out the boxes and decorate the tree!

Sick Day

Not only am I sick, but my two beautiful babies are sick too. Molly is the worst off. She is just snotty and feverish and MISERABLE. I sat her on the chair with her blankie and instructed Anthony to be nice and leave her alone because she doesn't feel well. I go and hop in the shower. Mid way through I peek through the curtain and see Anthony had moved into her chair to snuggle with her. What a good big brother. Not good at following directions all of the time, lol, but he has a heart of gold. I finish my shower and as soon as I whip open the curtain Anthony goes, "Mama, Baby no talk anymore."

Gah!! I hate moments like that when my heart thuds with fear!!!!

Baby wasn't talking anymore because she fell asleep.....not because she slipped into a feverish coma. But I am so proud of Anthony for being concerned. She must have been fake napping though because as soon as I got to the couch and touched her, her eyes popped open.
