tomorrow is their last day of MDO until janurary. i'll have to make the most of my time since i was in s'port all last week. i don't have much shopping to do, but only having a couple of days left to do everything is freaking me out!

thanks to nick jr., emily is obsessed with the dora talking doll house. she saw a commercial for it about a month ago, and told us then that's what santa was bringing her. thanks nick jr., that silly doll house is fifty bucks, and of course, does not come with any accessories. we found one for her, so all her christmas dreams will come true, and santa, not us, will be the hero. commercials have already gotten to my 3 year-old. i think she needs to watch less nick jr. and more PBS. at least ethan will be easy to buy for - at his age he loves to play with anything.

because we pretty much lost last week, we are very late getting our christmas cards out. we were planning to take last week to take some outdoor pics, but oh well. our big plans are to take some tonight in front of the tree - that'll be fun since neither of them can stand next to the tree without taking off the ornaments and re-hanging them! we'll probably get no usable pics and may just have to send some "happy new year" cards instead...

happy birthday Chris

we miss you

31 would have sucked anyway!
