Christmas

Some funny highlights:

Lil'Bug wanted ice cream for dinner...why? Uncle J. ate some and she wanted it too. He ate the last of it. So......Lil'Bug insisted that her dinner food was full of boogers. So she wouldn't eat it. She asked for a bowl of cheerios and then wouldn't eat that either. Turns out she was mad that she had to sit in the high chair (we had extra guests and it was the only way to fit everyone....) so she was happy with the cheerios once she was out of the "baby" chair. If the only drama in a family gathering is a three year old's dissatisfaction with dinner (no nap factored)...count yourself blessed! I did!


Uncle J. was not late! In fact, he brought a friend. It was cool. The family recounted all the family milestones based on the boys' injuries and ER visits over the years. Gah. Aunt Bee and her J. joined us too. Certainly a full house! We ate good food, sang carols, and shared a lovely time.


Nana got me a Christmas sweater with bells on it. The baby kicked and the bells would ring. That was hilarious.


During the reading of the Christmas story I started scowling at Dearest Husband. Why? I thought he was laughing as he was reading the part about Mary being with child. Um. Sort of. Turns out he was tearing up and he choked up and had to stop to explain to everyone how happy he is that we are "with child" again and gave me a kiss. Wow, did I feel terrible (for scowling) and overwhelmed with emotion. I teared up for the rest of the reading. And right now, while writing this.

What? No drama? Nope. None. It was great.


Dr. Lil'Bug wrote people prescriptions NOT to take any more medicine. She checked everyone's ears for potatoes and quarters. Then she waved her magic wand and cured people of their worms. LOL! *no one in our family has ever had worms, that I know of.....
