Oh my goodness Deann! You should see Lydia's face!!! She is BEYOND excited! How did you know Ariel was her favorite? She is feeling pretty icky today, so she needed the extra boost! She is simply glowing!!!!
What can I say, I pay attention 
Oh boy, you will certainly be in my thoughts and prayers - there is a light at the end of the tunnel, the tunnel just seems so long. I work with kids who are recovering and in remission to get their strength etc back......they are amazing little people for sure! God Bless!
I should probably be off to bed before everyone else starts waking up, so good night all! 
OOOOH!!! Butterscotch!! That horse is great! I really want one for myself!! Have a great day, we can't wait to see pictures!!!
when she saw Butterscotch sitting under the tree!
She loves this horse! My wife and I were doing the. We knew she really wanted it!.
Off to get ready to go to Grandma's house!
Hope you all have an enjoyable Holiday!
I will post some pictures later!

have fun!!!!!
Merry Christmas DISboutiquers!!!!!
She will definitely be in our thoughts. 
(I don't celebrate Christmas, but my husband does with the kids, and I thought this was pretty funny.)
I was just getting ready to go off to bed, when I spotted two brown paper lunch bags that Arminda hung over the fireplace because she couldn't find her stocking. On it she wrote, "I Arminda have been very good girl, so I expect to have bothe of these stockings filled up." Then, all around the room she has placed little signs that read, "Please put presents here please." Good thing we taught her to be grateful and humble, huh? Oh, yah gotta love her though!
On another note, I finished up a Monsters Inc. nightgown for Lydia. She was sleeping, thankfully, by the time I finished it, so I just put it on her. She doesn't even know she's wearing it yet! I still need to put a ruffle on the bottom, but I figured that could wait! I sure hope I got all the pins out!Or, good morning, if you are getting up early!

oops. We're still thinking of a name
This is probably a stupid question, but would they want my blood? I'm on Coumadin for a hypercoaguable (sp?) state, so I'm pretty sure they wouldn't. But, if you could find out, I'd appreciate it!!
Thanks for the pics and mini TR!! I love that your DH wore one of the Mickey shirts. What a great guy! I have a picture of my brother and I resting on a bench just like the one Megan is laying on (near Spaceship earth) when I was about 12 years old.
I can't see your pictures! Am I the only one?Merry Christmas everyone!! I have been lurking trying to keep up but am way, way behind but love seeing all the new creations! Thought I'd share a picture of my dd in her Christmas custom that I made a while back. She wore that to a Christmas party, and got a lot of compliments on it! Of course, that made me happy and really keeps me sewing! One of my friends wanted me to make her daughter one for Valentine's Day, and couple said they wanted one exactly like that for their daughter next Christmas....but I am not sure if I am comfortable making them for others at this point! My stitching just isn't the neatest if you look on the inside!
Anyway, I am currently working on a pink with white polka dot dress for her to wear to Playhouse Disney live next Sunday.
Hope everyone have a great holiday and a great New year!!
Poor little Lyddy!! Poor Mommy, how disgusting!!As I mentioned, Lydia hasn't been feeling well. She's got a nasty cold and cough. She was eating a cookie we made the other day, and offered me the rest. We had made a glaze frosting for it, and had just put it on, so it was still shiny and wet. I took it and was careful to turn it around and eat the side she hadn't taken a bite out of. After I took a big bite, she says to me, "I didn't want it, so I just licked all the frosting."
I thought Brian was going to bust a gut he was laughing so hard!
Very cute!!I bought this fabric awhile ago and last night figured out what I wanted to do with it LOL.
Cindee
Oh, I'm so sorry to hear that. I will be praying for little Lindsey.

About 1/4 of an hour, I'd say. I love your use of "Way-too-early-o'clock".I stayed up way too late last night, and Arminda and Corey were pounding on our door at Way-too-early-o'clock! I'm pooped! Lydia is sick, so she didn't go with Brian to church this morning. Of course, she wanted someone to play with her new toys with, so I was chosen as the lucky one. How many hours of Polly Pockets can you play and still stay sane???
Merry Merry Christmas!!! We had a wonderful morning. Lily was so thrilled with the Disney Princess kitchen that we had to beg her to open any other presents. She has been serving us tea from it all day long ( we had to take the tea cups and mrs. potts with us or she would not leave!!!
Last night she got a princess phone from my uncle, it is pink and fuzzy and has buttons w/ Aurora, snow white, ariel, belle, jasmine and cinderella. Everyone was impressed that she knew all their names (though she only knows Aurora as sleeping beauty.) You wouldn't believe that the only princess videos she has are Aladdin and Beauty and the Beast.
She got a nintendog stuffed Yorkie and she is dressed up like a princess (the baby doll santa brought has a tiara and a princess dress too, is there a theme here??) I thought the yorkie needed a good princess name so I asked Lily if she wanted to name her Fergie or Di and she said "I don't want her to die, it's my puppy!!!"
Gavin said his favorite present was a 6 way tie so we must have done pretty good.
I hope you all are having a wonderful day!

I got a new (to me) sewing machine for Christmas. My MIL thought if I was going to continue sewing I should have a decent machine. I got a refurbished Kenmore (made by Janome) with a handful of stitches and a top loading bobbin-YAY for that. anyway, just wanted to share...
I am always cold and don't have any throws in the living room, I always have to get one of Lily's afghans or drag my comforter off of my bed!! SO that was a GREAT present!
Heather, I'm not sure but I work tomorrow and I will look it up in the list of deferrable medical conditions. I'll get back with you.
I hope Tessa picked out an extra special necklace for you. I just opened another gift from my MIL, an afghan-YAY!!
...t.
I called DH to make sure that hadn't been meant to be $55, and they hadn't charged him wrong. It wasn't....he meant for to be good for $500 in merchandise with the $50 to cover tax!! 
He told me to go crazy and stock up because he knew I was stressing about where I was goign to get supplies when they closed, and I could get enough to last me for a long long time with the gift card he gave me! 
). Everything in the store was 50-75% off!! I went NUTS!! Then, when my surburban's trunk was FULL, I went home, ran up to my husband (who was home by then) and gave him a huge smooch!!
WOOHOO!!!
