The Greatest Gift

The greatest Christmas gift of all
Was never placed beneath a tree,
But lay within a manger
Beneath a star, for all to see.
Merry Christmas!

My Tummy

Ann Charlotte was spending the night with my parents and it went like this:
In bed, WAY past bedtime, sleeping with Acey and Cat
Ann Charlotte:  Acey, my tummy says it needs some milk.
Acey:  Ann Charlotte, we just had ice cream and it is really late.
Ann Charlotte:  Please Acey.
Acey goes to get Ann Charlotte her milk.  She comes back with the milk and a minute later...
Ann Charlotte:  Acey, my tummy says it needs the TV turned on.

We were driving back from Nashville, and we were almost home.  Being almost 32 weeks pregnant I was exhausted and telling her that I didn't feel very well.  Here was her response:
Ann Charlotte:  Mommy, I don't feel very good either.  My tummy doesn't feel very good.  I think my tummy has a fever.

We were out Christmas shopping this week, and we were in a very crowded store.   All of a sudden I hear:
Ann Charlotte:  Everybody watch out, big tummy coming through!

Oh from the mouths of babes!

Daddy's Eyes

We were out to dinner, and we were talking about what we thought baby brother was going to look like.
Mommy:   Do you think he will have dark hair like yours?

Ann Charlotte:  Yes, probably so.

Daddy:  I bet he will look like you when you were a baby.

Mommy:  I hope he gets Daddy's eyes.

Ann Charlotte:  Mommy, are you joking?  Daddy needs to keep his eyes!

Priceless

Ann Charlotte has been mesmerized with the Pink Palace since she spotted it driving down Central Ave. in October.  We have been every year at Christmas but she didn't remember it.  So, being that it is a "palace" and it is "pink" she has been begging to go!  I have been telling her that we have to wait until Santa arrives.  So, yesterday we went to the "Palace" with friends.  We had a great time.
Loving the train

Giving Santa one last hug


But our visit ended in a PRICELESS photo:

She's Back...

Rosie is back at our house.  This year she is Rosie Posie!  She is tricking us every morning with her sneaky appearance!
