{One more}.....cute fun family.

{Yikes}.......babies, seniors, families, kids, christmas cards. Am I ever going to get caught up?

{My little man}.....informed me today that he likes and wants coal for Christmas. How the heck do you use Santa Claus to discipline a kid if that's the case?

{Random}......i know my blog is kind of random and crazy right now, just kind of like I am feeling. With Christmas right around the corner I am working like a crazy woman to get caught up with everything, so if you are one of those fine people waiting on me I promise I haven't forgotten about you and I hope to have everything done by the 5th of December. That also means no more pics for the rest of the year. It's been real fun but I want to enjoy the holidays a little bit more this year.

{Twinkle, twinkle little star}.......how I wonder what you is, up above the world so high, like a diamond in the moon (or forest). Twinkle, twinkle little star, how I wonder what you is. I love the way you sing this song, just wanted to write it down so I don't forget.

{I yike Aba}......she's my bend. This is what Jaxen says everytime he sees her picture. It really is supposed to be I like Ava....she's my friend. I like the way my little man talks, however now he rarely shuts his mouth.

{Cute Nakken kids}.....they really liked me this time (wohoo) for me.

{Terrible two's}......almost three. What more could a three year old bring? My little man Jax is about all we can handle right now, a handful is an understatement. His latest fascination is climbing on things and now he is tall enough to turn the lights on and off. A couple of nights ago he kept climbing up on the kitchen counter where I was working and kept turning the light off. First off I spanked his butt a couple of times because hello my diet coke was setting right there where he was climbing and I just new he was going to spill it everywhere, I wasn't even thinking about the big red candle melting on my candle burner right next to him. The last time that he climbed up there I grabbed him but not before his cute little hand hit the candle and my nice red candle was no longer in the container but all over my cupboards, my walls and my wood floor. Needless to say, in all the years that I have been a parent I have never been so mad. I put his cute little butt in time-out and seeing that he wouldn't stay in there Derek spanked his butt everytime he poked his head around the corner. It only took about 4 times before he realized he might be better off just staying in his room. I spent the next hour and 40 minutes cleaning hot wax off of everything and those of you who have had to do this knows that is a real pain and doesn't clean up very good. I think he learned his lesson because the next morning after the whole dilemna had passed he said,"I not gonna climb up there anymore", and sure enough he hasn't. Why in life do we have to learn things the hard way?

{Emotion}.....there is something about this picture I really love. The kids are not looking at me at all, but I think it's the emotion and look on the little man's face that I really love.

{I forgot}.......the most important thing at this age you are the BOSS of everything.

{My little man}......at this age you
*love your mom (the most)
*love your milk
*love to make a mess (drives me and your brother crazy)

{R. Hunter Ellett}......great little kid, easy to be around. half the time you don't even know he's there. My brother's little guy don't see them alot but Jaxen sure talks about him alot. He was so funny taking pictures, my other little nephew Gage had him cracking up the whole time.
