It’s Christmas Eve at 1:11 PM. Ed took the kids out shopping this morning and we met at the mall after I got some of my last minute stuff done. I took the kids to get the rest of the gift cards I needed, got them lunch then came home. We are done! Dinner and Church tonight and Big day tomorrow.
The kids were eating and I just looked at my e mail and noticed I have pictures ready at Wall-greens that I need for tomorrow. I said
M: Oh I forgot my pictures at Wall-greens; I need to go get them.
W: I’M NOT GOING
N: Quick hide, I’M NOT GOING either!
I just laughed, I understand their reason.
Everyone enjoy your holiday, Merry Christmas to all and to all a good night!

William’s Song
William is changing the song to
“All I want for Christmas is my 3 top teeth”.
He lost another one today in school.
Word spread fast too. He was at the nurse and saw Natalie pass, he wanted to tell her what happened, but she didn’t see him. A little ways down the hall Natalie ran into William’s teacher and was told about the tooth. He was happy to know that she found out quickly.
At pick up all his friends had to see his tooth. I had to open the little treasure chest the nurse put it in and show all the kids.
William still doesn’t sleep with his head on a pillow; he does however have a pillow in his bed. The pillow is down by his feet leaning up against the wall and a bear sleeps on it each night.
Oh and at the holiday shop at school, William purchased one pair of light up vampire teeth. I asked if that was because he didn’t have any teeth up top. He told me no, I can’t eat with the vampire teeth in my mouth.
I sure hope the tooth fairy is alert this time and remembers to bring a bone so Bailey will let her into the kid’s room. She has forgotten in the past and the good guard dog would not let her pass so she had to leave a note and tooth $ on the counter, or try again the next night!

William giving gifts
The kids were eating a meal, I forget which one, and I had the TV on and a commercial came on for Zale’s (jewelry). They were advertizing their holiday necklace. William was paying attention to the TV.
W: WOW, I’m getting that for you for Christmas!
N: For ME! YES! Thanks William
W: No for Mommy. (N: sad face) I’m getting you the earrings
N: (Happy face) THANKS WILLIAM!! Yes, I get new earrings!
My mother has taught them well, both of them, to LOVE diamonds! That gene skipped me; I’d much prefer electronics to jewelry. William will make some woman VERY happy with his gift giving some day.

Voting is closed the winner is….
Poor William was sick all day. Vomiting every 15 minutes or so for most of the morning and into the early afternoon. He finally fell asleep in the 2:00 hour and slept till I woke him around 4:30. He woke up and was STARVING! “Rest your belly” I said “NO I’m HUNGRY, MOM, PLEASE CAN’T I HAVE SOMETHING TO EAT???”
Problem was I was planning on going to the store today while the kids were at school. I’m out of EVERYTHING eggs, bread, cereal, soda, and I have nothing for dinner (not a problem for me I don’t feel much like eating after watching William throw up all day). About the only thing I do have in the fridge is milk and I found a box of jell-o to make for him. I was just so happy I ran to wall-mart last night to pick up toilet paper and I didn’t put that off till the trip I was planning on doing today!
So it’s my mom to the rescue; she was at the grocery store and called to see if she could pick something up from my house. I said yes and she asked if I needed anything. EGGS please. I put her stuff outside and she made the drop without ever having to enter the germy house.
I made pancakes for the kids (that’s what I needed the eggs for). William is still happily scarfing down pancakes and the jell-o I made for him earlier. While eating he announced,
“Mom, you are the GREATEST MOM IN THE WORLD!” AHHHHHH such a sweet boy. This is so nice to hear since I’m usually being told “You’re SO mean!” So I won the greatest mom in the world contest and all I had to do was have my mom bring me some eggs and make the kid some pancakes!!
Boy I wonder what award I would win if I made him candy

Remember to wear your safety goggles
When cutting your children’s toe nails!
Those little buggers are hard to find in your eye.

YOU’RE GROUNDED
4:30 this morning I woke up with Natalie in my arms, didn’t know how she got there or why but there she was. After not being able to fall back to sleep I finally asked her why she was out here and she said her belly hurt. I told her to go lay on the love seat and I got up to get her the bowl and a few more blankets. About 5 William joined the party and laid down with me. I think we all fell asleep for a little while then my alarm went off at 6:30. Natalie complained that she had to wait until 6:55 for me to wake up and I told her if she didn’t wake me up in the middle of the night then I could have gotten up with the alarm!
As I was waking up I told them they were both grounded and I would tell them their punishment later. Simply we need to come straight home from school and not stay to play at our friend’s house. William has practice tonight so we were doing this any way, now I can turn it into a punishment!
(Natalie and I went to the grocery store the other day and she asked if we could get chocolate soy milk. She doesn’t know its soy; she just knows it’s the only kind of premade chocolate milk I will buy for them. So we got it and it sat unopened and forgotten about all weekend.)
After finally waking up this morning I made the kids pancakes and remembered the soy chocolate milk. I got out cups and gave it to them. This is what my darling daughter had to say.
N: Yea Chocolate milk!
W: YEA
N: WOW this is what happens when we get grounded; we get chocolate milk for breakfast!
W: (giggle giggle) COOL
N: Wow lets do that again tonight so we can get grounded and have chocolate milk for breakfast again tomorrow!
M: YOU BETTER NOT!
N: Chocolate milk and chocolate chip pancakes, I LOVE BEING GROUNDED!
Who wants them to come live at your house??? I’m giving them away for FREE!
