So Here's The Thing...

I am, apparently, in charge of Christmas next week.
For my clan, let me clarify.

Not for the whole world.

You understand.

And I'm now at the full-sprint-panic status of trying to find where I've hidden everything and figure out exactly who was meant to have what and why I only seem to have candy canes for one kid.

It's a beautiful, well-organized Martha Stewart kind of Christmas.

Not.

I did complete my final teaching/speaking engagement for the year yesterday.

I think.

So I should be focusing on holiday prep.

But that means I don't have a real picture post for Wordful Wednesday today.

So I checked to see what 1 of 8 might have captured with her camera while The Boy was here.

And I thought this was pretty adorable...

And I thought this was incredible...

So, by my count, over the last few days, there have been several blog posts featuring 1 of 8's and Octadad's photography skills.

Do you think it's a conspiracy, a covert effort to take over my blog?

Nah.

I think I've just been a blogger slacker.....


All in the hopes of being a holiday over achiever...

I need a husband and daughter to take over my blog right now!
I've been a major blog slacker the past 3 or 4 weeks, and while there are HOPES of being a holiday over-achiever, I'm not sure that they are materializing this year! :-)
I like the line about "only candy canes for one kid." LOL!
Why is it that certain kids are so much easier to find gifts for? My 3-year-old daughter (whose birthday also falls on Dec. 25) has WAY more gifts this year than any child should ever have! Amazingly, we've hardly spent very little(maybe $15?), but (between blog giveaways, Toys R Us coupons, and a few "EUC" hand-me-down toys that we are giving her as gifts) she is getting well over $100 worth of gifts. Her brand-new Strider balance bike alone is worth something like $90!
Anyway, I should get back to holiday planning. . . or writing a blog post. . . or something!
Merry Christmas!

I am just impressed that you can get anything posted with as much as you have had to do this fall. Way to go momma.
