Thursday December 13

On the first day of Christmas:

We made and decorated cookies for our neighbors.

I will be honest with you.

We fought a lot of the time.

I am tired I guess.

And when Mom isn't in a good mood, it sure is hard for everyone else to be happy.

So I blame myself.

But I think we turned it around by the end of the night.

And I hope tomorrow will be a better day.

Anyway....they did a great job with the cookies.

I actually only gave away the cookies that I made.....don't want any sick bugs getting out.

Little Elsie bug had it kinda rough today.

She didn't sleep good, at all.

So she was tired and wouldn't even think of taking a nap.

And she doesn't cough very often, but it is a bad cough and ended up making her throw up this evening.

Poor girl.

I hope she kicks it quick.....and no one else gets it.

 

Looking back at the pictures....I guess you can sense that maybe they aren't very happy with me.

I will do better tomorrow.

 

I love this picture of Porter.....it makes me smile.

Frosting on tongue and all.

 

We made sure Elsie kept that bag just for herself :)

 



Port's masterpiece....yummy.

 

 

Cassi's favorite.

When dad got home this morning he told us about a cool call he got to go on.
He got to deliver a baby.
The lady was having twins...at home with a midwife.
He said the midwife couldn't get the second baby out....he wasn't sure they knew about the second baby initially.
Anyway, he got there in time and was able to deliver the baby.
Everything went good.
It is nice for him to go on a good call every now and then.
One that brings life instead of taking it.
