What should we leave out for Santa on Christmas Eve?

On our way home from work and daycare, Toddy was talking about Christmas and Santa Clause. Everytime we drive by a house decorated with Christmas lights, he says "Look mamma, Christmas!"

I asked him what happens at Christmas and he told me that Santa comes. Keeping the conversation going, I asked him if Santa was going to visit him for Christmas, he replied "Yes, I good boy, mamma." I smiled because he always tells me that he has been a good boy.

I asked Toddy if we should leave something for Santa when he comes to the house. He thought about it for a few moments and said "Yes, cookies". I inquired to what type of cookies would like to have and the response was "Two Blue Cookies". I thought that was an unusual color choice because we as adults always think of red and green for Christmas.

I asked, "Would like something to drink with his cookies?" He didn't respond. I asked again if we should leave something, like milk, for Santa to drink with his cookies. He replied, "Yes a beer." At first I wasn't sure if I heard his response correctly and I asked him to repeat what we should leave Santa on Christmas eve and his response was....

"Two blue cookies and a beer, mamma."

Heidi's Senior Pictues

Heidi has recently gotten her senior pictures taken and we are currently looking at the proofs to decide which ones we want to get. (and that is a very tough decision because they are all really good) I have gotten one of the pages I want to put together for her to look at. I can't wait until I get more time to experiment with the other images.

Credits:

Heidi had her senior pictures taken locally by Wentzel Photography Studio. Image retouching, layout creation, and other other effects have been done by me.

(If anyone would like me to create a layout like this for them, please feel free to contact me. This page would be for a 6 x 6 scrapbook but the layout could be modified to fit your needs. Cost approximately $20.00 for the file setup and you would own the file to take where you wanted to be printed.)

Singing Songs.

Toddy is really starting to enjoy singing songs. At daycare they have been trying to teach him how to sing Jingle Bells. I think that they are going to be doing something with the parents in regards learning this.

We have fun listening to any song that he tries to sing right now because he gets stuck, kinda like a broken record or a cd that skips. Last night for example he was singing the Wiggles song "Hot potato" For at least 5 minutes I heard the phrase of the song that goes "Wooo wiggy wiggy wiggy, Woo wiggy wiggy wiggy, Give me that, Give me that, Give me that FOOD!"

Some of the Songs he likes to sing are:
Hot Potato
Fruit Salad
Jingle Bells
Thomas Theme Song
Thomas - He's the One
Monkeys Jumping On the Bed
