Very Grinchy Indeed

Christmas Eve dinner was a very....ummm..."traditional" Mexican feast of chicken, bean and cheese enchiladas, mango salsa, guacamole, cheesy corn bread and tortilla chips. Followed by a dessert of christmas cookies and The Grinch Who Stole Christmas cake!!

Capped off with a viewing of The Grinch Who Stole Christmas. Here is Tate reciting the story word for word.

Almost there...

Oh we are so close to the big day! Tate has been telling everyone who will listen what he wants Santa to bring him for Christmas... Shake 'n Go Dragsters and Shake 'n Go Crash Up Speedway. Thank goodness "santa" has purchased these gifts that are now wrapped and await arrival under the tree! 

Tate had a Christmas party and performance at school last Thursday. It was complete with class made cookies, song and dance! Here is Tate, Max and Matthew doing Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star. We have it all on video for your laughing pleasure.

More Christmas goodness to come....

'Tis the Season

Tate dictated a letter to himself last night. He began...

"Dear Santa Claus and Toys R Us...."

After that, it really doesn't matter how he finished it - he has taken quite a liking to consumerism.

Hi!

I've been feeling very stressed in my everyday life and therefore the blog has been suffering. I apologize. Writing cute things about Tate actually lessens the stress... so therefore I pledge with new dedication a more regular posting schedule. Please stay tuned... 

Boys are...

...sweet!

This afternoon while driving home from a client's photo shoot and then lunch out, Tate said he had something to tell me.

"Thank you for having such a nice lunch out with me today!"

Boys are sooooo sweet!!
