Life Or Something Like It

So, Jessica saw her doctor on Friday. She has not gained any weight, but she hasn't lost any, either. That is reason enough to celebrate.

I decided to post some photos of my favourite Christmas ornaments, hoping that I will feel more of the Christmas spirit if I do.

These are my animated ones. I only have three, and the Laverne and Shirley one is a gift from TMOC and Lovely, my brother and sister in law. Of course, I opened my gifts early. I always do when he sends me stuff. I just can't help myself.

Christmas Day promises to be wonderful. We are having the girls grandma over for dinner, my dear friend and former MIL, Lynn. We all get along great, and she and Shawn have a better relationship that most 'real' mom's and son's.

Boxing Day Heidi and her family are coming over, so that we can celebrate our family Christmas. I love spending time with Heidi and Jethro. They have been more like family to me than those that share my name or a blood line. It has been like that forever. You know that Ruby is dying to see The Pug, too. I plan on taking tons of photos of the chaos - 5 kids, 3 dogs, and 4 parents. I can't wait!

I hope that all of my blog buddies out there get to spend time with their loved ones, and have a joyous and wonderful holiday. That is what Christmas is all about.
