(Insert Rocky theme music here)
I got a good picture of ALL 3 KIDS!!! And cute individual shots as well. I am happy.
SUCCESS!
It is done
The pictures are done. I am uploading them now. There had better be something good of all 3 or I am going to scream. I know I got some cute ones of them alone, and a few of Andrew & Elaina...but 18 month olds are a tough crowd.
Today is The Day.
The Day that we are going to do Christmas pictures. I got some adorable outfits for the kids, not Christmasy though. I wanted to do non-holiday holiday pictures this year to give as gifts to the grandparents. I also need to do our Christmas card picture which is separate from that but haven't really come up with a plan for that yet. I am running late this year.
Anyway keep your fingers crossed for me! I know I can get a good shot of each individual kid but all 3 together is a CHALLENGE!!!
I must be getting old

I seem to remember painting all day long when we bought our first home 8 years ago. Today we painted our living room - which really involves one big wall and two half walls - and I am wiped! Oh yeah, I spray painted something too. Now I am exhausted and need to go to bed immediately. The fumes probably aren't helping either.
Tomorrow is Christmas picture day for sure. I can't put it off any longer.
Thanksgiving
We had a great Thanksgiving. We went to a friend's house (Hi Cathy!) and we all had a fabulous time and the food was wonderful! Our kids are all friends and they all play so nicely together. We love having a family of friends like them.
In other news, today we got the Christmas decorations down. All 10 bins. Oy vey. I need to organize and condense this year. I dont even use them all. We are getting a REAL tree this year and I think we will get that next weekend. I thought I would be bummed that we weren't doing it this weekend but actually it's nice to focus on Thanksgiving and doing all the rest of the decorating. Then next weekend I can just concentrate on the tree.
Other tasks to do this weekend - paint the living room, bake Christmas cookies and take the kids' Christmas pictures. Busy!
Sharing some pics

Or not ... I just logged in to put up some pictures, as I haven't in a while, but Liam is awake now and yelling for me. His new thing when he wants me is to yell as loud as possible "MA!" Maybe I can get it on video later.
Anyway I will put some pictures up later on today. I am off to buy a fake tree today!
