They did one big party instead of the individual classroom parties. They had the 4yr old class do a mini play about the birth of Christ. Afterwards the 3yr old class did a segment of some Christmas songs.

Our two new puppies like to wake me up around 5:30am EVERY morning! So not fun. Then my alarm goes off at 7:30am to get up. Gotta get ready, Jeremy ready and fed before leaving at 8:30am to take little man to school. I get him off to school, then momma and I head out to do some <strong><span style="font-size:130%;">THREE</span></strong> hour Christmas shopping. Which by the way, I got the kids the <span style="font-size:180%;"><u>cutest</u> </span><span style="font-size:100%;">pair of sneakers! I can't wait to give them to the kids!!!!<br /></span><br /><br />Once momma and I are done shopping, it's time to get little man from school..grab some lunch and then head home. I've seen Ray today for a total of about an hour. Not cool. Once I get home it's non-stop kids, and dogs! I don't know who wants/requires more attention..my kids or my fur babies. The kids go down for nap..mommy does some cleaning (<em><span style="font-size:85%;">a never ending process it seems</span>).</em><br /><br /><br />I get done with my little bit of housework about 30 minutes before what should've been the end of nap, and look forward to some <strong>"me"</strong> time...BUT...what happens?? I hear a faint little voice calling<em> "mommy, can me get up???".</em> What the heck, why not?!<br /><br /><br />Once Jeremy's up, it's not long after that Tay's up. So we get dressed, make a trip to the grocery store and back..get Taylor dressed for dance, and off we go. She did super a dance, by the way!<br /><br /><br />When we got home, the kids were excited because I let them stay up past bedtime to do their gingerbread house. It's a delightful mess! :)<br /><br /><br />I put the kids to bed, finished my housework, and put away some laundry. Now I'm gonna relax and hope and pray that tomorrow is a little more "calm"!Brittanyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05897980872302791689noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3711762514170416071.post-39536415346245786862009-12-14T19:47:00.000-08:002009-12-14T19:48:52.204-08:00Nicole Keith's Sweet TreatsIt's a work in progress, but here's a sneak peak at my new bakery website!<br /><br />Check out <a href="http://nicolekeithssweettreats.blogspot.com/"><span style="font-size:180%;">Nicole Keith's Sweet Treats</span></a>!Brittanyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05897980872302791689noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3711762514170416071.post-67341074087284167252009-12-13T16:39:00.000-08:002009-12-13T16:46:21.864-08:00Puppies!These are part of our kids' Christmas gift!

Boy, it seemed like it took forever. We got there around 3pm and didn't leave until 9pm. We also had dinner there, which was part of our 6 hour visit.

Totally appropriate for the <span style="font-size:180%;">COLD, COLD, COLD </span><span style="font-size:100%;">weather we had today!

Well since I haven't felt good, I've been avoiding the dreaded "H" word...housework!!! I still feel pretty bad, but enough is enough. I had to get something done today. So, with the help of my little helper boy, Jeremy, I got some cleaning done. His choice to help, not mine! But hey, mommy never turns down help! </div><div></div><div><br /></div><div>First Jeremy and I started off by cleaning up his sisters room (with a little bit of assistance from Taylor!), then we cleaned: his room, their bathroom, we did 2 loads of laundry and dusted! He's an awesome little helper. And with that in mind I made a trip to the store for a helping surprise for Jeremy and Taylor. They both like banana pudding, so they're going to get to help make it with me tonight!!! I'll post pictures and the recipe of that tomorrow!! </div><br /><div></div><div>Now onto some more goodies today....I'll update with what I have!!</div><div></div><div></div><br /><br /><a href="http://www.mylivesignature.com/" target="_blank"><img style="BORDER-RIGHT: 0px; BORDER-TOP: 0px; BACKGROUND: none transparent scroll repeat 0% 0%; BORDER-LEFT: 0px; BORDER-BOTTOM: 0px" src="http://signatures.mylivesignature.com/54487/356/B4281BA63CEB9551447F0BBA98644515.png" /></a>Brittanyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05897980872302791689noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3711762514170416071.post-89003796011586705912009-11-19T06:36:00.000-08:002009-11-19T09:18:09.977-08:00$1.50 Wet One's Printable<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgbGdhRyTRm6OCH3T9IiVPz_Lv4Xxfu_ohGrLt1lP39AwpMFzfWKBnc-yi1F48jUX5MmRSQCSgPsMXI5JLm03kopQBeEt_5H_TTzcYoNqez-Jg5PmPpv6ieU8YqOkb86A1p4rRcYaFih6k/s1600/wet+ones.png"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5405823956830803618" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 185px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 200px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgbGdhRyTRm6OCH3T9IiVPz_Lv4Xxfu_ohGrLt1lP39AwpMFzfWKBnc-yi1F48jUX5MmRSQCSgPsMXI5JLm03kopQBeEt_5H_TTzcYoNqez-Jg5PmPpv6ieU8YqOkb86A1p4rRcYaFih6k/s320/wet+ones.png" border="0" /></a> Take the Wet Ones pledge <a href="http://www.wetones.com/wo_couponregistration.asp">here</a> and print a $1.50/1 coupon!
