sittin' on go...

THE cards that is.... the christmas cards are printed, addressed, stamped and awaiting a good picture.... waiting shouldn't take so long....AT EASE GeNtleMEN!    

i know whitmore.... we can't explain... don't ask.... this is just the way "he" rolls.... (notice the zebra still in hand, but lucky for us all charlie had de-robed his fireman get up "what mom? santa claus doesn't like firemen"  yes, sweetie i am sure he does but i just wanted you to match the other boys thats all.  "alright, mom sounds good but do you see how many tools i have in this ONE pocket" 

does it get any better than that child?  if so, send me the how to!

"mommy, i think you forgot to brush charlie's hair???? just sayin' for my first christmas card and all"

you are right, maybe we should wait until the lil' hornet is in a better mood without a busted lip (that could be a long wait.....)

almost..... too close.....

nothing in the whole world like seeing your babies laugh, hearing that noise is music to my life!

and THERE, i have lost my audience and will try again later....much later!

another time another place....

my lil' hornet is wondering why he has TWO brothers that do what they are told when asked, it only makes him look bad  worse.....

 

another too close shot! with another child and another scratch across his face....

i threw my hands up at the effort and called it a day.... an unsuccessful day for christmas card pictures but successful at making them laugh....life is good!

and another ONE...

and another....

Houston we have a problem!!! cards but no picture.

and so it is what it is..... TA DA!!! the one below will be glued to your card... oh. and you had better enjoy it all the way to the trash can, i question why i do these every year......as if you can't see my kids daily by blog or facebook by season......you are right, i am a product of my own generation and may drop THE cards from my "to-do" list....which i lost by the way... "mom, is it at your house?"  i didn't have a thing to do today...due to the losing of THE list; therefore i enjoyed the entire day with the boys....  playing, out to lunch (just the four of us...and it was NICE- daddyc was dining fancy....and we aren't THAT good yet), spent some hours in smiths (always an adventure in the local toy store), and YES, BELIEVE it or NOT my monkey and i unveiled the christmas decor (not outdoor and NOT our tree, they aren't selling those yet..)
