Week in Rewind: Dec 12

Can you hear what I hear?  That's right, it's that time of year. The most magical time of year--

Last weekend, we headed to Longwood Gardens to see their spectacular light show. Yes, it poured. Yes, someone was not on his best behavior. But we still had a great time with the grandparents. And somehow, I managed two half way decent pictures, considering the little guy's refusal.  This season of merriment will not be derailed!

And now on to Chickie the Elf.  Someone finally "gets it" about being good, especially in front of Chickie. But as Mommy pointed out, Santa has cameras everywhere and sees everything. The boy for the most part has "buy in" but at times we have to go to "don't make me call Santa", phone in hand.  (I really need one of these Elf things for each holiday season)

Then there are the questions when we forget to move Chickie (ok, two times thus far).  And the questions come fast and furious. So far, he seems to be buying the sleeping excuse...because Chickie had a long night.  And don't get me started on the need to be cute with Chickie's placement. Some mom's are totally over the top. We've had him playing with Legos, driving a fire truck and riding the trains. Or when daddy takes charge...he's placed on the curtain rods, swinging upside down....which, of course, the little guy totally loved. Go figure!

So as we make this march toward Christmas...our merriment will not be derailed.
