Christmas Eve Cookies

Whoo wants an owl?!

Each of my kiddos is getting something made by me - especially for them for Christmas. I had this idea to make Brock a stuffed owl from an owl Juliet made in preschool out of construction paper. I'm not sure Jules is going to be willing to give him up!

Christmas Cookies

 We baked all day!  We made all of our yummy favorites...

While I was mixing sugar cookie dough, Brock decided to help out with the cookie cutters.  He utterly destroyed the whole batch.  Then he went into the bathroom and cut his hair.  And dropped my computer external speaker down the disposal.  Big day Brock.

4 Days Off School

Brock is obsessed with baseball right now. He has worn Cougar's batting helmet for 6 days straight!

We had fun at the County Fair.

We did some chillin'

We enjoyed the Veteran's Day Parade. We saw our new governor Rick Scott!

Oh, I also finally covered Juliet's lamp.

My Baby took my Lovey

Teddy entered my life the day I was born. I've seen pictures of me as a baby sleeping with teddy. Teddy went to the college dorms with me. Moved into the sorority house with me. Teddy is whom I snuggle with on Chad's call nights. Only something very unexpected seems to have occurred.

Yes, that's teddy.

You can never guess what item will become that special lovey. For Cougar it is Meow, his stuffed cat. Juliet loves her princess blanket though she has many special stuffed animals she cares for.

Brock has never attached to anything up to this point. And he chooses my lovey for which to attach.

My feelings are mixed.




Somehow I managed to sneak him back tonight. Do you still have your lovey?

And it is done!

Juliet's POV of the Family

Daddy: My Daddy is Chad. He's my Daddy. He goes to work at the doctor. He fixes people because they have emergencies when blood comes out of them.

Mommy: My mom always be's nice to me but sometimes she puts me in timeout. She doesn't work she just goes to the workout place. She likes me to sleep with her because I'm a little girl.

Cougar: He only likes to play hide and seek with me and that's all he likes.

Brock: He fights my bunny because he's so crazy. He just tackles it. He's two and had a chocolate cake.

Juliet: Now let's talk about me ... see how beautiful I am? I like to play with my toys. I like to play with my pet bunny that's real.

Camping IN

Like Unicorns, they don't exist.

We couldn't find an affordable Unicorn Costume so I am, like the Fairy Godmother, trying to make one out of a pumpkin.

Juliet's Plan

A work in progress.

The head is done.

On to the rest now...
