Morning. I am off for the next two weeks and I am loving life today!
Let of the list - NOTHING!! But I still have to wrap presents (this morning), make Jake's birthday cupcakes for school, make Christmas cupcakes, buy the bread for Christmas day, do all the Christmas pre-cooking, and figure out Jake's birthday cake. All-in-all, not so bad.
I hope to get as much wrapping done this morning while Natalie is at school. And then we are going to see the Frog Princess after she is done with school.
Alicia, I took M2 to see Princess and the Frog on Saturday! He LOVED it!! It is cute! He asked if we could buy the DVD.
That is soooo sweet!
Natalie has been asking to see this movie since the trailers first came out. We are going with a group of her friends and I am sure they are going to love it.
Sonya, It's funny, because I told DH last night that I was pretty much done and didn't really have to go on Christmas eve, plus we are going of his sisters on Christmas eve. He was kind of sad.
It's been kind of a tradition of ours to go out on Christmas eve. So we decided that we will still go out even if it's just to window shop!
I don't understand why disney always has to have something sad in their kid movies though! Have you ever noticed in most of the movies one of the parents dies?
i have to get bennett the shopping cart i want to buy (and can't seem to find ) and stocking stuffers. That's it!!!
i even got (and shipped in time) a present for dan's grandma. I'm NEVER this organized. our out of town relatives have had their gifts for at least 10 days now. last year they never got gifts from us because i didn't get my act together.
But, Amazon has something coming up in lightening deals that I've been wanting to snag cheaply, so I may buy one more thing. But after that I'm done-done-DONE because today is the last day for 2 day shipping, lol.
We went to see Princess & The Frog last week - it was GREAT. The message in it is fantastic, and although some parts were pretty intense, and Hannah usually doesn't really like movies where the villian is obvious, spooky, and gets more than 30 seconds of screen time, she adored it and wants to go back and see it again, lol.
i should be getting ready. my parents will be here in like 20 minutes so i can take mikey to get chemo. i am still in my pj's. i'm sure they'll love that.
in my defense i was doing laundry, sweeping the laundry room floor and vacuuming the living room and little kids' room. also changing a diaper, dressing mikey, feeding 3 kids and playing referee to numerous fights.
so see - i am productive even when i don't look like i am
Good to know on the princess and the frog. Travis and I will divide up the boys next week at some point and one of us will bring Koda. He adores movie threatre movies, but we never get to go. I think the last was UP.
clara has pneumonia, poor thing. it came on fast - started saturday with glassy eyes and a cough. yesterday really runny nose and slight fever. this morning 102 fever and the she crackels when she breathes - so we went to the docs and she is on antiboitics.
despite being sick, she still wants to play and stuff - hopefully we caught it real early.
I need to get a cowgirl hat for Elizabeth since she NEEDS it to go with the cowgirl boots I caved and bought yesterday. I don't really have anything for dh yet and need to get a gc for my ds. I need to take E shopping to get her brother something too. Oh, and need to pick up a little something for my mom. I don't even want to talk about grocery shopping.
I need two Red Lobster gift cards, one for K's parents, and one for my mom and her hubby and I was looking for just one more thing for Kent's stocking. Gonna be pretty empty if I don't find something soon! LOL!
I said I was done for the kids but I just had a friend find the zhu zhu stroller and the black and white hamster Winkie so I will need to pick those up in the next couple days. I really desperately need to be done.
I'm thinking I have to bring Josie in to the doctor. She's had a nasty cough for a week now and she's been running a 99.5 temp for the whole week. other than that, she's be a ball of energy so I'm not too concerned.
omg, on pneumonia megan! i hope she's doing ok tomorrow.
i hope josie is feeling better tomorrow too, sonya.
i am going to have to go to the dr tomorrow. i'm a mess. it's almost 2 weeks and i'm still hacking and coughing and have no voice. i guess it's time for abx. ugh.
we were closed yesterday and we're closed tomorrow. i just popped on the district website and we're closed wednesday too! no school til after the new year!
I am almost done. I still need a couple things for Addy and SD. I need to get something for DH and something for my in-laws. They got into town tonight around 7. They are coming over in the morning. Yay.
Then something small for my grandparents. They will be here on Christmas Eve.
And Addy's got a tooth coming in! Her upper right vampire tooth! Explains her extraordinary fussy attitude! DH spotted it this morning and showed it to me. I had him make sure it wasn't just a bit of spit-up. Nope.
