December 26, 2012

Eating, nibbling, grazing, grabbing, handfuls here and there does not even begin to define what I have been doing since December 23, 2012. OMG it's been a Marathon of hand to mouth action over the past couple of days and I'm still going strong....ooh man.

So a quick run through of what happened during the last couple of days, well besides the eating I managed to complete a few projects along the way. I finally went through Emma's baby clothes sorting them out to see if there was  I could salvage for the new baby and ooh boy did I ever find stuff in those boxes.

I think when I was shopping for Emma I must have thought I was having triplets or something as that child had tons and tons of clothes. I honestly know that she must have worn some things for like half a day or something as I don't even remember having had those things.

I sorted out the clothes in three piles, Keepers, Charity, Giving to Friends and Garbage. As emotional as it was to let go of some of the clothes it had to be done as Emma would never wear them again and the child that I'm pregnant with is a BOY unless the Ultrasound technician made a huge mistake and the boy turns out to be a girl..........ooh man that would be funny in a weird way and I guess I won't be giving away those clothes.

I have also been doing laundry, endless loads of laundry of the crib bedding, bassinet bedding etc. OMG it's so much stuff to wash for the baby, I had forgotten how much stuff these babies have.....LOL.

In other news we had a lovely Christmas, Santa did stop by our house this year and he came bearing loads and loads of gifts. Emma and Jeremie were quiet thrilled with what they got and now the house is filled with toys everywhere as they have to play with them.

Below are a few snap shots of our Christmas Dinner.....yes there was lots and lots of food and now we have lots and lots of left overs....

And yes I even went on to make my very own Coconut Cake, Barefoot Contessa at Home Recipe....OMG is the cake ever rich and decadent.....that woman honestly has zero concept of low fat....

Ooh Yummy, well I guess Christmas only comes once a year and when it's around we have to EAT UP.

I'm making Butternut Squash Soup for dinner tonight with some home-made panini's. We need to eat light tonight after yesterday's dinner which was way too much. 

Thanks for reading!
