Christmas joy

Well we are ready for Christmas!! All presents wrapped, stockings stuffed. and milk and cookies left for Santa! YAY!!! It was interesting getting to this point. Yesterday, my mom's birthday, started with a call to poison control. EXCELLENT!! Adriana somehow got ahold of and opened a brand new bottle of Concentrated Motrin drops. Awesome! Might I add that it was in the 5 minutes I was in using the bathroom. That was a great start. But she was fine, wound tighter than an eight day clock, but fine. Got through that day fine after that. Then got up this morning, made a gingerbread house with Maria. That was fun! Two babies, Kynndra, Maria, and Me. It's like the special bus rejected us and dumped us all in the same spot!! But it turned out nice. Then went to Mom's, "What? You don't remember me telling you about dinner at Aunt Annie's" Well it was in an hour! Nice job Shannon!! Okay through that. Got back to Gramma's and she gives the girls what? Fart putty!! Thank you so much!! The rest of the evening was filled with, not christmas songs, no, fart noises and giggles!! "It wasn't me, it was the putty!!" Then home, set up for Santa, Mom called and told me about NORAD. We can track Sabta! Kynndra thought this was So cool. She kept an eye on it while I got Adi in bed. When I got back she asked me how Santa could move if he didn't have a sleigh? I told her that was just a picture not the real Santa. She was ok with that. Got the girls in bed, blah, blah, blah. Yay, I get to chow down! I got to the bottom of the milk, OH MY GOD!! What is in the bottom of the glass!?! A brown, blob! I gagged!! Almost lost it, then relized Adriana had added her special touch before going to bed, A piece of chocolate!! Guess it was choclate milk for santa!! GROSS!! Ok so now put stuff together. I did mention I fell off the special bus right??? Why does using tools make me seem so retarded? I know how to do this stuff, why does it take so long, and fight me so bad? WTF?? Anyway, so now it's done and we're just waiting on Santa to drop off presents!! WOW Christmas is hard!!

Quality time

I spent last weekend in Boise and then came home and my girls had to go to Arizona for a wedding, so I didn't get to see my girls for a while. I have to say that I missed them like crazy. Now that they are finally home and I am not on night shifts I have appreciated our time more than ever before. I have cherished every moment. It's almost like it means more now. Missing them that much makes it worth so much more to be with them. We have done so much the last two days together. We went out to dinner, we have colored, read stories, watched movies, cooked meals together, everything is so perfect. I absolutely LOVE my life, my girls, and just everything right now. I couldn't be any happier than I am right now.
