Noah hanging Christmas lights???

I'm sure in a few years this will be helpful, but at two I don't think it's anything but nerve wracking!!!

Mommy Moment #7

I was standing in the closet putting a dress on when Noah came in and in the most enthusiastic voice said "Mom, are you Cinderella???" (He's already learning how to butter me up!!!)

Santa Claus is coming to town....

Last night we took the kids to see Santa!!!

Noah was actually pretty excited to see him. He kept looking through the glass door saying "Santa! Santa!"

We were a little worried about how Audrey would react. She was a little nervous at first. I think the courage of Noah helped her for a few seconds....and then.......

Yup, within seconds she looked like this!
Noah told Santa he wanted a sucker for Christmas, that should be easy. The whole way over to visit Santa we told him that he needed to tell Santa what he wanted for Christmas and he kept telling us he wanted tools.

I think Audrey looks much happier with the fish than with Santa.

Christmas Fun!

The other day we did a bunch of Christmas stuff around town. The Bellagio always has a beautiful display around the holidays. We also went to see Santa but he was out feeding his reindeer....we were so hungry that we couldn't wait, then we went to Ethel M's to see the amazing cactus garden. I think there were more lights this year than last. And we topped it all off with a nice, warm cup of hot chocolate (actually it was scalding hot!)

One more thing I am grateful for....

This is Bryan's breathing machine!

How would you like to roll over at night and see that on your husband's face???

But, it sure is the sweetest when it's totally silent while you're sleeping.

Bryan has severe sleep apnea which has been a difficulty for all of us. Poor guy doesn't get any sleep at night and I can't sleep because of the loud snoring. If I so happen to wake up in the middle of the night and he's snoring, good luck getting back to sleep.

But....

since that mask has come into our lives we are soooo much happier. If anyone out there has a spouse or you yourself might suffer from this problem, it's actually pretty common, PLEASE go take care of it. Go see your doctor, it's very very very unhealthy to sleep like that!!!

You'll be amazed at the difference!
