Fallen off the Edge of the World…
Dec 21st
or at least the edge of the world wide web!
I am at my parents for the first leg of the Holiday Triathlon of Travel. We have 2 houses to hit this year but one that we will go to twice (ridiculous- believe me. I know!) It totals to just under 30 snowy, black ice, cartoon watching, scanning for deer, cracker munching, Gatorade drinking hours of driving this year. Did I mention it is all in the span of a week? Why we do this to ourselves and our little boys (not to mention the baby in my belly!) is beyond me. Making my family happy shouldn’t require this much effort.
I always feel like I need a vacation after the holidays are over. I know I am not alone in this, but this year since I did the first leg of the trip sans my husband (he will be catching up with us on the second leg of the journey) I feel like I am alone. I want to vent to my husband. I want him to hold me and tell me “I told you so!” That is how much I miss him right now… I am admitting he is right!
Anyways… Usually we would have internet for the whole duration of the Holidays but the internet was out at my parents. Obviously, it is up and working again. The one good thing about not having internet- all the time to take great photos. I will be posting a serious DPC catch up post tomorrow.
Check back (probably mid afternoon-early evening) for 4 belated pics and 1 pic that is actually on time!

P and the tree. P could sit and stare at this tree all day… he loves the lights, the ornaments, the tinsel, the tree skirt – he loves it all.

This past Saturday NBC premiered this 30 minute festive flick. Merry Madagascar quickly became a favorite in our house. The boys already loved Madagascar and its sequel. They love them so much that M, my 3 year old, does not leave the house with out his Schleich giraffe, lion, hippo and zebra. I am not proud to say that M can recite entire chunks of both the full length movies and is starting to memorize quotes from the latest adventures of Melvin, Gloria, Alex and Marty!

Our stockings all neatly hung in a row. By next Christmas we will have one more stocking hanging from the mantel. The thought of that fifth stocking almost makes the all day long morning sickness bearable.
