A Very Merry Christmas...

I must say that out of all the Holiday's Christmas is my favorite one. There is just something magical and special about Christmas that makes love it...

On Christmas Eve after we all had dinner, we went out to look at some Christmas lights. The thing was that both the kids actually fell asleep in the back of the car while we were out driving around (they both didn't take any naps)...

Once we were home, we got both kids in their Christmas Jammies, which I decided to make for them this year...

Once the kids were in bed and fast asleep...

J Dude woke up around 6:30am thinking it was time to play, but thankfully I was able to get him back to sleep for a little while. The Bug woke up around 7:30am and we let the kids play upstairs for a little while. Around 8:00am we headed downstairs...

The kids were so excited and I loved to see their faces...

Bug has been all about the Wonder Pets lately, so she was ecstatic when she saw this book...



J Dude and Bug had a great time opening their presents and seeing what the other one got. Bug really likes her iXL and as you can see J Dude had to check it out too...

Here is the aftermath of what happened...

Later on that afternoon, J Dude decided to bust out his tools from his tool bench and decided to give daddy a hand on putting together his gift from Santa...

We had a wonderful time together as a family and the kids had a great time playing! Bug really loves her iXL, Tree Puzzle from Discovery Kids and Leap Frog Scribble and Write. J Dude absolutely loves his Tool Bench, his Tonka Truck and Fire Engine. Both the kids are just working on sharing their new toys with each other now, LoL!

Oh! Before I forget I actually got my Christmas present early, but my awesome husband got me a camera bag and 2 camera lenses for my Canon Rebel Xsi. The other present I was not suppose to know about that my son handed me the receipt to one day was a feather-bed for our bed (not to self, don't leave receipts lying around)...

Anyways, hope everyone had a very Merry Christmas.

Pictures with Mr. & Mrs. Claus

Apparently before the Christmas Break at Bug's school, Mr. and Mrs. Claus stopped by (who knows if they actually arrived on a sled and reindeer, seeing how Horse and Buggys are quite often seen on the roads here...)

Bug seemed happy that Mr. and Mrs. Claus were able to find her here in PA as last year she lived in VA. As you can see she also figured out what Santa's favorite snack was...

So, these must be the people that my sister was telling me about that bring us neat toys on Christmas Day once a year...

As you can see Bug became a cookie monster and didn't seem to want to share her cookie with anyone, not even Santa. Better be careful, you could end up on the Naughty list...

J Dude flirted with Mrs. C, but as you can see that is nothing new. He thinks she's even better than Mr. C!

Pie or Pizza?

So, needless to say if you haven't noticed I am totally behind on Blogging. Not because I forgot, BUT we all got sick. Apparently we had been hit by the Adenovirus (at least that is what the doctor "thinks" that Bella was sick with). Well Bella & Daddy were sick, then Jerrick and Mommy got sick too...

Well so knowing how Mommy was sick and wasn't feeling too well Daddy took care of dinner that night!

Bella went to bed herself that night, she was sound asleep before the "pie" man got here to deliver our "pie". Apprently out here pizza is called "pie". So needless to say when the guy showed up at my door asking if we had ordered some "pie", I was like ?

Doesn't look like Jerrick had any objections...

Pizza always goes down better when you wash it down with a little milk?
