So he got his cake:
in the shape of a Big Green Truck - as requested for the big green truck birthday party.
And lots of presents. Among the favorites were the garbage truck that I snuck by him that day at the Sprawlmart, and the 5 little monkies set that Pop and Fannie sent.
In other news, Rowan lost another tooth, thus necessitating an extreme close up shot of his toothiness. Yes, the orthodontist does have his work cut out for him doesn't he?
Now that the birthday is over, we can decorate for Christmas. Of course, this has to happen on a weekend when both John and I are walking around feeling like someone has been beating us over the head with the snot stick, but get it done we shall.
Ladies and Gents, may I present our 2007 version of the tree.
And even though we are feeling a bit slack this year, what with waiting until today to get the tree up, and doing the bare minimum thus far, I carried on and got the stockings hung on the mantle. Because even if nothing else is done and you have random boxes of crap that you don't know what to do with hiding back in your bedroom... Even then, if you have a snappy looking mantle it looks like you have it all together
Especially if you can get the dog to lay down in front of the fire.
Merry tidings y'all. Pass me the wassail.

Everything looks great, kids, house, the Christmas cheer! We are slackers too... not only has everyone been sick, dh also left town. SO... still no tree here. But everything else is up that's going up. With a climber around... it makes decorating rather simple as most of it stays in the boxes!
Happy Birthday !!
*Who are all those stockings for? ;D
Hope you are feeling better.
xo,
