A Super(hero) Christmas

Take a wild guess as to what L's obsession is this year.






I was pretty excited as well.

BFFs

J to L: "Eum... tonight when we go to sleep, we will still be best friends.. right?" Eum to J: "Yes."



AK to M.: "I love you. You are the prettiest baby ever. I don't just like you, I love you."

Shop-a-holic

This is the look Mary gave me when I told her daddy doesn't like to shop at Kohl's. Sort of a perplexed, yet amused look.

"Santa has elves, You have Target"

After 4 years of never meeting Santa, L has finally met the man. I have to admit, this Santa was so good and so real I wanted to tell him what I wanted under the tree on Christmas morning. He was downright magical. For me, it was as if Dumbledore had dressed up like Santa. For L, it was as if someone had reached into his dreams of riding the Polar Express to the North Pole then pulled him onto the sled to be presented the first gift of Christmas.

For Mary El, it was just another warm body to hold her close.

L's conversation with Santa went something like this "you know.. the one at Target. The superhero, Green Lantern - he is a super hero... I want his castle. I also want the other superheros. They are at Target. Dr. Doom. Silver Surfer. The yellow guy.. he is a good guy, he has a mask, kinda like Batman but not on his head, on his eyes. You know his name? My daddy knows his name. I want him too."

The healthy and not-so-healthy news

Mary El had her 2 month appt today. She is a perfectly healthy baby.
Weight: 10.5lbs (50%)
Height: 23" (75%)


In other news.. this little dude has a bad cold (which he has graciously shared with me and Pol). Let's all pray Mary doesn't get it!

Could he possibly have a cold since he is in shorts when it's 32 degrees outside?

Bro and Sis

I had the kids all ready for church.
L asked if he could hold his sister.
I said yes.

Then I subjected them to a few pics.


Yes.. Mary always looks really comfortable in L's arms.
