I loved this moment of the boys having their first "Peanuts" experience - the Christmas decorations box included a comic book from Jeff's day. They are really into it and laugh at them - very cute!
And little crazy girl and her latest new toy - a diaper. Here she is falling asleep on my legs clutching her nappy until she couldn't hold it any longer!Yesterday when she woke up from her dreams of diapers...poor sweet girl...her mom had given her too much milk right before she fell asleep and she had a little spit up in her crib. Well, alot I guess you could say by the looks of her matted hair in the back :(.
But the concept of a morning bath was enough to make us all smile and a load of laundry later - all was well.
Cute face!!!
(shout out to Uncle Ken who's gag gift of a Justin Bieber cup has made its way to the bath)
The abandoned school table after I discovered her nighttime mess.
And a morning snack of some yogurt made her need a bath once again! But she did not get one :).
And if the day wasn't exciting enough already, we all went for flu shots! The doc happens to be across the street from Chick-Fil-A and I happened to have four free milk shake coupons in my purse! So some tears on the way to the shot turned into silence and slurping on the way home. Ellie even got a taste when we got home - if anything will turn that girl to food it's the Peppermint Chocolate Chip seasonal shake from that wonderful establishment. The boys really understood getting the shot was more about keeping Ellie healthy than themselves. And then their reward was a delicious treat like this! Life can, at times, be full of rewards if we look for them :).
Xavier took this picture of Ellie watching me wrap some presents! She rolled and sort of crawled (getting closer to really crawling!) right over to the action!
