Today we went to Bell's Children's Christmas Party. Little Ray's Reptiles, face painting, clowns, and .... SANTA! Oh bliss.
Peyton's been known for her attempts to convince others (her grandfather) to go tell Santa what she wants on her behalf - she's been a little too afraid to do it herself.
But today - she did it! Climbed up on his lap, stated she wanted the Little People Schoolhouse, she got a gift (Dora doll) and a picture taken, and it's all good.
The twins did very well - rather, all three did very well, considering we were missing the PM nap all around. Leah got a bit screechy towards the end, but if she didn't, I would wonder if something was wrong. Ha.
Paul & I have been out twice in the last couple of weeks for work parties - it's been a treat. Erin & Peter watched the kids last Friday night, and Rich & De watched them last night. No one missed us either night, apparently! (although I don't know how much Erin & Peter enjoyed the "poop up to her neck" gift Paige gave them.)
Rich & De have offered to overnight one of these days...we'll maybe take them up on it in January when the Christmas hecticness is out of the way. Having said that, I phoned De AFTER 10:00 AM this morning and WOKE HER! I can't remember how to sleep in, I think.
So that's the news for now - not too much to report.
And here are the kids....
