Over the last week DH has been off it has been nice to have him home while the boys are home. It was great having him home we had a lot of laughs and tons of wrapping for Christmas I am So glad he was home for that. As much as I love doing it there are times that I just get over whelmed with it all. So that was one of my greatest moments of the week.

We had a great Christmas and everything was a hit.  Or so I thought tonight Rebecca told me that she was mad at me for not getting her a pony.  I told her there is always next year.

This post is filled with pictures from the last week So I am making it a ‘more’ post so it  is not taking forever for it to load. I hope you take a peek at some fun moments in our lives and  what Santa dropped off for us all.

He also helped me make Rebecca a Tutu for one of her Christmas presents and possibly a new product on Giggles and Smiles. Not sure yet. She loved it so much Which brings me to my next greatest moment. She was taking snap shots of the guys in the kitchen and I caught her trying to take a picture of me. It was too funny I don’t think she ever laughed so hard. Ill have to get the pictures off that camera to see how they came out. She wants to be a ballerina heart doctor when she goes up. She got a Dr set and has been playing Dr to everyone since Christmas morning its so fun to sit and watch her explore so much. Down side of it is she enjoys playing with the boys toys but not letting them touch hers. Yes I know girls are bound to have the Mine syndrome, for some reason these boys let her do it so I say its their own fault.

Another great moment was Christmas morning Brendan was so excited on what Santa brought him a V-Tech and a Thomas game which he loves he sits and plays it when ever no one is watching TV and Becky isn’t using it for her ballet DVD (the reason for the Tutu). He is getting so smart he was sitting there playing just shouting out the answers to the problems. It amazes me sometimes how smart these guys are. He also got some blocks and legos which he seems to just love building.  So he does have something positive that he loves to do when he is in the middle of  those moments when someone else is using the TV.  He has also been totally enjoying going sledding with Alin.  But not when its snowing outside he hates having it hit his face today he came in side and blamed Alin for it falling on his face.  He is so silly sometimes.

The moment that I loved is when Alin decided to rub Ned’s Head. They were both being super silly and laughing. Making cracks about everything it was the same time Becky was taking pictures so we may have some funny pictures from that evening too. They were all having a blast.  Santa got him a Sled which he has been using every day since, and a new cell phone, a game, and some clothes odd but that is what he wanted some jeans and under armor as he calls it but its the long sleeved biking shirts.  He enjoys it so I figure why not.  I can not see how it helps keep you warm but I say choose your battles.

Here is Jeffery and Ned having a great time too. It was nice to see everyone laughing and getting along. If you have teens or remember your teen years getting along with your parents is not always a good thing. It is easier to argue then have a good time playing and having fun. But as a parent I am sure you know like I do they love these moments as much as we do.  Santa brought our Jeffery or NJ as he is wanting to be called these days, A Bike, scrabble, a World of Warcraft game, and yet again clothes these guys acted like they dont have any when they opened them.  I thought it was funny its usually girls who are clothes horses.

With the WOW game its something that Ned, my dad, Aunt Judy and I all do and he wanted to play with us.  I figure this way we can keep an eye on him and keep him safe there since there is always one of us playing with him.

Here is another Moment that made my heart sing. Ned and Becky Laughing and having a good time at Dinner Sunday night after daddy got off work. I think this is one that I am going to frame. She looks so grown up. and ready to conquer the world.

Santa left for her a life size Sleeping Beauty doll that sings while you dance with her, a Strawberry the short cake dance mat, a swan lake ballet set that has a bar, mat and DVD since she wants to be a ballerina, and some Gymboree.

I Lucked out and was behind the camera most of the time and have no pictures on my computer  at this point of me :Evil laugh:  Santa was good to me I got a Fly world computer pen, a Cricut machine, Iphone, some TV series on DVD, and from mom a beautiful heart necklace with a diamond in the middle.  DH got Everything he asked for and that was DVDs  odd but true its all he asked for I also got him one of those pocket picture things they have on TV and put some fun pictures on there so he can take it with him when he is working 10 days straight, starting Friday :EEK:  And he got a Star Trek box thingy with nick nacks in there he loves.

So that was our week so far.  Its been a fun one even though I did have a headache most of the time from the new medication.  I am sure that over time it will go away.

Thanks for Stopping by
