It’s the Mom Song

Got this from Lisa - cracked me up! Can you believe it? John and I were just talking about how much the past few years has changed us both. And not to get too smushy while I'm typing this, that cheesy Pepto Bismal commercial just came on - wow I can't believe some of the people who are singing/dancing on it. Well without further ado, here's the video.

Happy Birthday Jesus!

We had a few inches of snow on Christmas, not a total Norman Rockwell scene but enough to get a few snowballs together. John got the bestest Charlie Brown Xmas tree - I've got such a great family. Baby Girl, Hubby and I hung out all day and giggled up a storm. Jeez we are a bunch of festive jackasses! Ms. Vivian got a ton of cute little outfits, my dad even went out to go shopping -the end of days is definitely close at hand (**kidding**) all and all we are blessed once again to be with each other. Best wishes to you and your families - from our twisted one to yours. XOXOXOXOXO John, Viv, Michele, Lumpy, Tasha, Lil' Pork Chop, MoJo JoJo and the occasional visitor Ralph

and the peanut keeps growing

brought the lil' bean in for her 4 month check up today. she is now 12 lbs/13 ounces and 23 inches - wow i guess my bonsai methods are definitely not working. got a few more pics to upload later tonight. ms viv is now completely enamored of her toes and frequently is holding on to them, trying to stick them in her mouth. not that there's ever room as she's usually got everything else that isn't nailed down already crammed in her fist trying to eat it. one of her favorites right now is the soccer ball rattle Rock and Stacey got her as well as a Tiny Love Froggy with stripes and rings on his feet. been talking to some people about watching her for a few hours a day so john can tinker in the garage more. got in her calling cards this week (yes, i am completely jackass - and they are the cutest things in the world!!) everyone is cracking up about them. i'll have to scan one and upload it. in the non-baby world (can you imagine? there actually is one, i swear!) I'm meeting with jen next week to discuss the strategist position. i think I'll be able to do some really cool work and get my brain rocking n rolling. john is getting ready for an event next weekend in scappose or mulino - i can never remember. i guess our use of the google calendar needs to improve or it's back to the whiteboard. one way or the next we'll get jelling on our schedules. thinking about a haircut but not sure what I'm in the mood for. if i had a stylist i've worked with for a while I'd let them go to town but i haven't found one i like yet. c'est la vie.
