Judecorp.

I have been an online shopping fool for the past two days. I am seriously knocking down the Christmas list, which is nice, without having to go to the mall, which is nicer. Now I just have to hope that everything arrives on time, and arrives correctly, and all of that junk. Whee!

I still have to find gifts for my mother and her husband, and for my grandmother. And Punk, but she's not getting much and she's easy, because I control her wants and needs. HA HA.

We ordered our holiday cards but we have to wait for them to arrive (poo). I also ordered holiday return address labels because I'm too lazy to write our address 100 times this year. And hey, we don't have any money so let's just SPEND MORE!!

We went to get a Christmas tree yesterday. We haven't decorated it or anything because it had ice and snow on it and we didn't want to get electrocuted. But it smells so good! I can't smell it when I'm sitting here but when I leave the room and come back in, mmm, smells good. It also goes right up to the ceiling. Oops. I should have listened to Jen when she said it might be too big. But it's not TOO big, so technically I'm not wrong. So there.

We're headed to smemily's house tonight for some Hanukkah candle lighting and pizza eating. Punk is taking a nice long nap right now (I keep going back in and settling her back down, heh) so hopefully she will be ready to go. We will be home past her bedtime I'm sure (bad mommies) but not too late so it should be cool. The weather is pretty yuck right now (light snow) and I am less than thrilled about dragging the baby out.

lelumama came over to play with me this morning! Yay! Good times, good times. And her husband came in to say hello and he didn't try to kill me with his scary chest hair. Double yay! They ended up not being able to stay here because said husband came down with strep and they didn't want to give it to us or Punk... so we didn't have houseguests (BOO!!) but we still got to play (YAY!!).

It's cocoa weather for sure, man. I wonder if we have some.

Once again, mollysummer72 has outdone herself. I thought you were just sending me more dom, but I was totally overwhelmed and surprised by the /adorable/ clothes and the swaddling blanket. How could you have known that we had started outgrowing the swaddle-me? And thank you for the coupons as well - we will put them to good use for sure.

You are so amazing, S. I am tickled to think that August will be wearing some of Jackson's groovy hand-me-downs. You are so nice! I especially love the shirt about baby activists in a resistance. ("Just go limp.") HA!

Man, I love my MUFF mamas xcore.
