While you were sleeping...

This seems to be the story of my life right now...LOL!  I can't seem to accomplish anything until the world (most especially my little kiddos) are all tucked in at night and sleeping.  So much going on all the time around here.  Cash...oh, where should I begin...he's been very cantankerous (sp??) the last few days just wants me to hold him all day.  He crawls after me and stands up at my legs and puts his sweet little arms up to me...oh, how can I resist?  I think he got used to all the action and the girls being home last week--lots of entertainment.

Normally, I have my Christmas tree up by now, but as you might imagine, I'm dreading that a bit.  I can just see it crashing to the ground at the hands of one tiny little boy :)  I'm still trying to figure out a strategy...where to put it?  What to do?  Maybe I need one of those baby corral things?  Hmm?

Just had to share this cute picture of Abby--losing all her teeth and looking so different and grown up!  Oh my!

So we started our house remodeling over the weekend...our first project: the dining room floor.  Now, the "lovely" plum/burgundy colored carpet was like brand new--but we love hardwood and want to put the same flooring throughout the house. 

We started Saturday afternoon and finished Sunday evening.  I'll have to post some pictures of the finished floor...it looks so nice.  I'm so thankful to have a handy hubby.  Although...I have to brag--I did run the saw for him!  Yep--a regular toolbelt diva!  Now if only Santa would bring me that dining room table I want :) to put in my lovely dining room.  I've been good...really I have! LOL!

Had a wonderful Thanksgiving with my family.  Leftovers all weekend...luckily I'm still maintaining my weight despite the pie-fest I had all weekend :)

Its all gone now--thank goodness!  Can't resist those homemade treats...that is my weakness!  We had deep dish apple, pecan and pumpkin...all Thanksgiving staples with us.

Till tomorrow! --or should I say, later today :) hee hee

Blessings to you. jw

I am right there with you on the tree situation. My baby is 10 mths old and I dread it too. It is in the stand and she has not bothered it yet, but once those pretty lights and breakable ornaments come out I know it will be too tempting! I have heard to put a circular gate set-up around the tree, but I think it will take away from the tree's beauty.

Can I just say, my son is 7 and he just wants to touch and play with all the ornaments all the time! He is so facinated. My parents recently ripped up all their carpet and put in all hardwood floors. Have to say, I really love it. Those pies look so GOOD! Tis the season for so much food. It is so crazy! By the way, very CUTE pic of Abby!!! :-)
