A photo-less post, but picture this...

I was too tired to get my camera, but Tyler fell asleep last night in the floor of the living room on his tummy in the perfect shape of an X. All of us, with the exception of Thomas, had fallen asleep while watching School of Rock-- too funny how tired we all must be. Emeril, our dog, had crept over and had fell asleep with his head on Tyler's arm. That was the first thing I saw when I woke up-- too cute.

We were worn out I suppose. Took Tyler to the dr. yesterday, and we have finally determined that Tyler has asthma. Good thing is that it has not been the "can't breathe, scary" type, but it has been the "can't stop coughing and wake up in the middle of the night, and always have a cough" type. We have already seen a HUGE difference in just one day with the inhaler-- good sign I think. AND, his behavior has even been better-- I think he is relieved to feel better. Poor thing also has had an ear infection, which was missed completely by the new Ped. we saw a couple of weeks ago-- he is now on my list of all of TWO Peds. we will not see again.

Anyway, did most of my Christmas shopping for extended family all in one day on Wed. (the first day off from school) and just have a little left now. Andrew will be off with us for the duration of break starting at 3:00 today-- yay!!! He has some exciting things going on at work, so he's a happy camper right now! :) We're supposed to take the kiddos to my MIL's tonight, too, so we can have a date for the first time in a least a year. Looking forward to it and finishing shopping at last.

Going to try and make some mini gingerbread houses and cookies today-- if I can get to the store to get a cookie cutter-- car starting issues... if it works out, maybe I'll get some pics. of something finally-- LOL.

Wow-- twice in one month!

I'm going to post again-- weird!

I've been doing some online searching for Christmas, so I'm actually "here" and thought I'd swing by.

Life is nuts. I mean nuts. Too much work, still finding my footing and lots of things to take care of there. Field trip tomorrow to the Nutcracker. Today, I pulled out some more of my scrapping tools with the kids-- took me long enough, but there you go. Nervous about getting everything done before Christmas and there's all the other things still going on, too, like work evaluations and school politics. Just swirling around up there and no time to process before reacting to things these days. Anyway, just 5 days to go before break-- yee-haw!

So, Andrew found out who this was for me (thanks, dear)... yes, it's from another JC Penney Commercial-- I guess their marketing people have good taste. :) It's "The Weepies"... what a name for a band-- LOL.



Merry Christmas,

Playing "catch-up" well, in photos anyway...

Tried to get these on here last night, but my computer had a hiccup... don't have much time before out the door to shop for Christmas... I really just want to go to sleep... shhhh... LOL... anyway, just thought I'd share a few pics and will catch up in words soon I hope. I know it's been a while...















Hopefully sooner than later...
