Christmas


Above is when we went to see Santa, Which Jasmine just loved him. She even called him "Da". She also wanted her picture takin with her finger up her nose. Which Santa kept moving her hand, so she couldn't put her finger back up her nose. As you can see she already has that finger ready. After the picture was takin and I was trying to pay for it Jasmine kept trying to walk beck to Santa. Which I told Matt about her calling Santa "Da" and he says I know I am fat but I didn't think I was huge. Which in noway is Matt fat.

So this was a wonderful morning of being hit in the head by Jasmine and then hearing Connor say Santa came. It was just too cute. The kids were so excited and happy that Santa came. Santa brought a kitchen for Jasmine and a Basketball and Basketball hoop for Connor. Both kids loved all the presents they got.Okay so I have reread Kim Harrison's book series again and I am salivating at the mouth to read Black Magic Sanction, and I just read the first chapter on Pale Demon and can't wait to read them both. For those of you who haven't read her series, it is about a powerful with named Rachel Morgan who basically is stumbling from one thing to another, always getting into trouble. I can't wait to find out how Rachel is doing in the two last books. Don't really want to give any spoilers away so I won't go farther into details.

Christmas cookies


We did Christmas cookies tonight and they turned out pretty good. I forgot how fustrated I can get when baking cookies when you have a toddler behind you all the time and hitting you in the butt and scratching you trying to get you to pick them up. I gave up about halfway through and since the first cookies were cool enough I let them decorate the cookie. That is like the best part I think. mixing the dough, cutting cookies out and baking them just sucks when you can't keep everyone happy. Especially when you have a toddler that just wants to be held so she feels like she is helping. Although decorating cookies was fun someone really needed a second bath. I do mean second bath, because every time she eats I have to give her a bath.

New bed

Well yesterday Jasmine got her knee stuck in the crib rails for at least the fourth time in the last two months. I looked online to find out what to do which I couldn't believe how many other kids have done the same thing. Her knee was stuck so bad I almost had to call 911 for them to send someone to cut up her crib. Thankfully with a little more effort I was able to get her knee unstuck. So I asked a couple of people what to do. The fire department and emts showed up at my neighbors house so I asked then what I should do since my son never did this. Surprisingly they were no help. I was told to out the bumper back in which she just ends up standing on it. To put Plexiglas in her crib which yet again I just think she would end up standing up on it.

I was able to talk to my hubby this morning and told him what had happened and that I didn't want her sleeping in her crib. That I just planned to take her mattress out and just put it on the floor till we got her a big girl bed. So he told me just to go get her a twin bed which then we would need more mattresses. Connor still needs one for his top bunk. I went ghetto and put a full size air mattress on there for no and it looks like a futon. I picked out a daybed for her and he said "No" to that one cause he doesn't like daybeds, so I had to tell fine you help pick on out when you come home for now I will just get a toddler bed for her.

So I went out right after lunch and got her a new bed. She tried to help put it together, and was so excited when I got done. I really thought I would have a harder time trying to get her to sleep in it, but she went right to bed.
Didn't try to play or anything, then again she did already pull the Christmas tree down earlier before I put her to bed when I was talking to my neighbor outside. That was fun to hear I thought something seriously broke with the way it sounded. Which two of my favorite snowflakes did. She was in her exersaucer and had ended up at the tree. She had a death grip on the tree when I went to pick her up while my neighbor stood the tree back up. Gotta love kids.
