Christmas Lint from my brain.....

Today is one of those catch-up days and cross things off the to-do list.

Mr. Wonderful and I leave tomorrow to spend Christmas with my mom. She is getting excited about our coming and has already informed me of the Christmas dinner she is planning. We keep telling her not to cook so much and she keeps ignoring it, so the Christmas tradition continues.

We plan on being in New York to spend time with Tim, Suzy, Oscar, and Andy. Since Oscar doesn't know one day from another.... any time we get there will be Christmas. I'm wrapping the gifts now and putting them in a separate bag. I'm sure if he is like most boys, he will enjoy the box more than the gift!

Check out this picture of Oscar! Doesn't he look like he will be in fine form to rip into Christmas gifts? I love the little devilish grin! Suzy says he runs everywhere and is quite the climber. Looks like this Diva and Poppa will get a workout trying to keep up with him. I'm sure we can convince Mom and Dad to take a much-needed break and spend some time together and let us enjoy some Oz time.

Check out this adorable picture of the divine Miss Em and her braids. It's probably a good thing we don't live closer cause all it would take is this look and a "Pl-ease Dita" and you know I'd be buying her a pony or a convertible. We talked with her last night on Skype, and she is enjoying her Advent calendar and according to Becky likes to wear the bow all day. I'd love to have her as my present this Christmas.

We will definitely be missing our Canadians this Christmas. Jerry is working most of the holidays and the cost of traveling makes it hard on all of us. We will be doing some video conferencing so that will help us see Emma's reactions to her gifts. Can you believe our girl will be 3 in January?




Uncle Andy will miss bringing his favorite niece a beautiful flower for a beautiful girl. Speaking of Boy Wonder.....congrats on the two B's and one C he got as final grades in Accounting and Statics (both very hard courses that he will never have to take again! Yippee!)

Look how much Emma has changed!


We will be on the road tomorrow so would appreciate your prayers. We are taking the laptop so might have to sneak out to post.

Merry Christmas!
