Sorry......

for the lack of updates. I'm going to blame the Wii, Hohnsteins, my lovely family, and Squirt. It's been a super fun December despite all the not-so-nice news that we seem to be bombarded with. I hope you and your family had a blessed holiday.
I'll hopefully have a big post for just the month of December but the Wii is calling and I must oblige. Have a great weekend!

Can't Sleep Ramblings

B's not home yet and the roads are kind of crappy.....so here I am trying to pass the time by not sleeping. I went through my e-mail and found one I hadn't opened from a mom going through the exact same situation(parts debacle) we went through. I told her I would send her "before" and "after" pictures of Squirt awhile ago. I got around to it tonight. I had no idea when I decided to take those particular photos, so I had to go through all my folders between Oct 06- Mar 07. I forgot how little he was. I found the photos and to my surprise they didn't scare me. I found myself turning my nose up at the umbilical hernia pictures and hospital pictures more than the parts. Really looking at the pictures made me feel old. :)
Anyhoo, I hope my pictures help her to understand that not only is she and her sweet boy not alone, but things do get better.
Blast from the past!

This was his umbilical hernia. They said it didn't hurt but it sure looked like it hurt.

Pretty babies

Just a few of the hundreds (no joke) I've been messing around with.
Maybe one of these days I will actually have a scrap book printed :)

Not a baby......just MY baby.

Little Carter.....I want to kiss his face off!

In case you are interested.......

The City of Westminster is having a lighting ceremony of their Christmas display at City Hall (4800 W. 92nd Avenue) Saturday night from 5:30-7:30. It will be another excuse for me to get a peppermint hot chocolate. If you can't make it that night, I really would recommend seeing at some point during the season. It's cute and the kiddos like walking through the little village!
If you go Saturday and are able to give, the Westy Fire Dept is doing their annual charity drive. They are asking for new or gently used toys and clothing, and nonperishable food items. :)
It's going to be a holly jolly Christmas!
