On the 2nd Day of Christmas...

We cuddled under blankets while watching Santa Claus is coming to Town. (is it inappropriate for me to mention the blatant nazi-ism going on in that weird little film? Kris Kringle just got thrown into prison. Nice.)




Also, is it braggy to mention that I wrapped all the presents while the girls were at school? I let Max test drive all of his presents. When I finally wrapped them up he kept pointing at them and yelling DAH! DAH! I always think I can do these kinds of things thinking that my kids aren't really that bright and they won't figure it out, but it is always ME who is not that bright.

Seriously...that movie is a bit disturbing when watched with adult eyes!

It is possible for Santa Claus to get thrown into prison - even in these modern days so I'm not surprised about the movie.

Max will increase his vocabulary when he finds out all he has to say is "where's my present?" instead of the universal "DAH".

For the second day of Christmas I just wished I had a few of those cookies from the night before!

Melanie and I watched that creepy little Christmas special when she was in Californina last weekend and it is definitely a weird one! I mean, really, your penguin named Topper? Huh?

Why I totally rule: How I rediscovered my chi

(In order to fully appreciate this post, you MUST put on the background music. Just click the play from youtube. This has potential to be a longagong post so you might as well enjoy some tunes. I did most of my training with these gentleman blasting in my ear. Vampire Weekend, I love you.) Here's the story with the gory details. Why do you tri? On October 18, 2004 I delivered a 16 week old boy in the same room of the American Fork hospital that I lost one six months earlier. (I get pregnant really easily.) The previous week I had seen the doctor and everything was looking good and right on track so yay for me. While the first one was devastating (a whole other post for a whole other day), it was number 2 that changed me. I was so angry at my body for betraying me and not letting me do what I wanted it to do. I figured I was doing all the "right things" with the taking care of myself so therefore, I would be able to carry the babies to term and everyone would live happily ...

I'll go where you want me to go dear Lord, but Primary?!

Brad took the picture of me teaching GD a year ago. I was not pleased. No pictures. Brad took this picture of Max while I was teaching GD a month ago. I was pleased. Pictures of Max are fine by me. Some important thoughts on my new calling: In the 21 years since I have been in Primary as a merrie miss (apparently they are not called that anymore), I have subbed a handfull of times. It was not a success. One time, while subbing for Brad I went into the class and the boys had escaped out the window. All I saw were a set of feet as the kid was leaping out. Another time, while subbing for Brad I used the tie some kid was using and irritating everyone around him with and TIED HIM TO THE CHAIR. Another time, while subbing, the kid sliced his finger on the chair (not the same kid and he was not trying to escape my tying him up.) and ended up in the ER. (and it so happens that his mom is my 2nd counselor. I think that's funny.) I really really really loved teaching Gospel Doctrine. I hope ...
