Pepermint Pinwheels





These little lollipop cookies are so much fun to make. It is a great project to do with the kids. I would have had them help me, but they were asleep at midnight. Next time I will have to plan better. I made 46 of them to share at their classroom Christmas parties.

Happy Days Are Here Again



Asher is feeling so much better and we are all much happier. I now have a sore throat and feel a little sick so I guess this has to be what he felt like. It has not helped much that I have been staying up until midnight getting stuff done for the holidays. Today we took Asher to the mall to get his picture with Santa. He was so scared. He screamed and arched his back. Luckily Santa held on to him. They said I could take my own picture with my camera, but when I was about to snap one the girls working behind their camera yelled "stop, you can't take a picture" and she jumped in front of Santa blocking my shot. It was so crazy. I can't believe that she did that. In all that chaos she managed to get a shot of Asher screaming. I didn't buy the $20 3x5. I just wanted something to email and post. We will just have to find Santa somewhere else that is not so money hungry. But then I will have to freak out our little guy again and Daddy hates it when I do that to him. So we will just have to see if we get our picture this year. Baylee and Riley don't want to do it either. I am not even going to press the issue with them.

Holiday Pictures







It was just about impossible to get a great picture of all three kids together. Asher is very non compliant recently. I have no idea what is going on with him but he is just stuck in this horrible mood. We get glimpses of our old Asher which is nice. I just wish he could tell us what is wrong and how he feels. I think it was a little case of the flu. It all started 5 days after his immunizations and flu shot. He got a fever for two days and now he is just so irritable. So getting him to sit for a picture was just not going to happen. I ended up doing a separate shot of all three. Luckily costco makes a card with room for three pictures. Hopefully this will all pass. I just wish he felt better.

BAYLEE FLYING HIGH


Yesterday we took the day off and went to Knott's Berry Farm. I won tickets on the radio last week so it was free for all of us. Pretty cool. Baylee conquered some of her fears and went on rides she never would before. This was their first time to Knott's. They said that it was the best day ever and they like it more than Disneyland. I don't agree with that too much, but it was a really great day, probubly our funnest day at an amusement park. The best part was, no lines. There was hardly anyone else there. As you can see in the picture Baylee had the whole ride to almost herself. I even got to ride all the roller coasters while the kids waited with Jeff ( they were too short to ride ). Anything you wanted to ride you just got right on. You never, never see that at Disneyland. And we should know considering we have got about 100 times.

That's What A Milkshakes All About




Asher had his first In And Out milkshake. Well let me make that more clear, he had a few sips of my milkshake before I had to pry it out of his hands. Can a baby transition from all natural organic, no sugar added, straight to milkshake? He sure seemed to think so.
