Christmas Happenings

Well, here I sit on another day-after-Christmas.

It's been a crazy busy week. Wyatt got to ride the fire truck with Santa and pass out candy canes to people. He LOVED it, but shockingly, he asked if we could stop at McDonalds while we were out. (Bad Mom, I let him have fast food. Oh, for shame!) I choose to think I'm not a bad mom, I'm a realistic mom :)

Then 2 days later he went to see the lights at the National Zoo. It was SO cold, but he had so much fun. Riding the "Mentro" was an adventure for him.

Walking around the zoo there weren't many animals out, but there were a lot inside the buildings. We got hot chocolate and cider to stay warm. There was also an "iceless skating rink" and a train ride, but we didn't participate in that. We just looked at the lights and whatever animals there were.

Of course, yesterday was Christmas. On Christmas Eve we went to Jen's. She gave me a photo charm to add to my Mom necklace. I swear, that girl tries to find ways to make me cry!

I will post more about Christmas itself later :)

I did spot an ex at the zoo....

Randomness

OK, so I really waffled with whether or not to continue blogging. I really don't like being the topic of conversations when I'm not present. But, whatever. People will talk if they want to talk. I can't really stop them

So I have today off, but I have to spend it running around like crazy. I have a test this morning, then Wyatt has to get an immunization (Which I'm really NOT crazy about, especially since we are hard core into his airway issues right now), then he has to get a cavity filled. I know a little boy who will be getting lots of TLC tonight!

So Elvin the Elf left Wyatt a mini Krakle bar (Although with this visit to the dentist, he may have to find something else to leave). Wyatt then decided to hide it from Elvin. Pretty cute. I love my kid.

Sometimes, I look at him, and I can literally feel myself fill with love. There is just no comparison.

The elf is back!

Every year one of Santa's elves causes mischief in our house. Last year, he spilled sugar, set up the dining room table and chairs on the front lawn...I never know what we will wake up to find. He starts once we put up the tree, and doesn't stop until we take it down. Well, Santa must have lectured him, because last night he brought gifts instead of trouble. But I think he brought Rudolph to do his dirty work...when Wyatt woke up, his nose had been painted red!
