I'm here! I'm here!

It's been awhile since I've had any sort of internet connection...but now I have a little...dialup. So downloading pictures is out of the question. Too bad.

Oh, and if you've seen the movie "4 Christmases" then you'll know what I'm going through right now. Less extreme, but no-less busy.

Edited: Here is ONE picture I was able to download. It was on my mom's computer, and I think it's darling!



I hope everyone had a marvelous Christmas!

Vintage Friday.

I'm totally unprepared, but here's a few from the file.

People I really miss (this is not inclusive, so please people, don't get mad):




And no, I don't miss myself...but I am totally growing my hair out again.

Booty Shake

She dances just like her mommy...


And that is chocolate on her mouth. Christmas chocolate.

Bandaids and Big Girl Unnerwears

Hallie went on the potty last night, and she told Dave (rather earnestly) that she REALLY wanted to wear big girl unnerwears and that she will NOT go potty in them.



Hard to see...but we're both wearing bandaids. My kid likes bandaids.

Hallie Mason, Amature Photographer

And since it's been awhile since I've posted a video...here goes!

Bonus Pictures

I love these pictures. I discovered them on my camera. They were taken while I was at work. What a lovely surprise.

Christmas Bluejays

Okay, so for some reason Hallie calls her PJs, Bluejays. Whatever. I'm sure Dave has something to do withat. So I bought her a pair of Christmas jammies, and they are a little...snug. But she looks adorable. And she loves them and keeps telling me, "no mommy, they aren't too tight!"

Teach 'em Young

That's why we have kids, right? So they can help clean the shower? (photos courtesy of Dave)

Weekend Recap

Oh, what a busy weekend. Saturday we went to visit Santa aka Satan (according to Hallie, at least). I have been preparing her for WEEKS to sit on Santa's lap and tell him what she wanted for Christmas (a baby and a guitar, by the way).

Well, as soon as she saw him, she freaked. And then when he BELLOWED his "Ho Ho Ho," she freaked. And when she thought he was reaching for her, she freaked. It was hysterical. Maybe next year?

Pre-Santa


He sees you when you're sleeping...

We then went to my office Christmas party where Jan presented her with a darling, hand-knitted penguin stocking. Which she now carries around like a stuffed animal.

Pockets.

Sleeping Dave. So cute.

Ice on the pond.

Hot Chocolate with Mommy & Daddy.
