Saying Good Bye

 Than today i hosted a play date at our house with a couple of friends

Here are some pictures of the morning!

This picture was taken when everyone left, they were pretty tired of playing!

What a great two days with friends and their kids!

This is one for all you Moms out there!!!!

So I have a mini problem ... Its nothing really big but I am not sure really when i should do this.
Walker will be turning18 months on the 27 and i had said that I was going to take him completely off the bottle when I was on holidays this way, If its a battle than, really I don't have anywhere to go the next day, so I can handle the late nights with him. But than I stated to talk to other people and started thinking really, his only 18 months he is still a baby. And its not like he is walking around the house with a bottle hanging out of his mouth 24/7, he only really uses it when he goes to bed, or needs extra comforting. You always see kids with a soother in their mouth until 2 or even 3. And his bottle soothes him just like a child with a soother.

I don't know, it breaks my heart to think I need to take his BABA away from him. I never go through with anything Matt is always the first one who does the first transition. I cant handle it. Matt did the from Mommy's room to his own room, Matt also did the not rocking him to sleep, let him cry it out.
So many heart breaking moment for me. I know I am a BIG sob.
What do you guys think!?

PS His not a fan of milk in a sippy cup!

Sleigh Ride :)

Walker's Daycare went on sleigh ride this morning. I took the day off to spend with him and was able to go on the sleigh ride with him. He had a blast playing in the snow and looking at the horses but when it came to sitting on the sleigh, he wasn't too impress that he had to sit still. Oh well it was a fun outing and will do it again next year for sure when he will enjoy it more.  I wish I had a camera to took pictures. Maybe next year for that too.

Christmas Gift for ME!!!

So I know I have already gave you guys my Christmas list. But this I need. I am 99.9 % sure my wee man, threw my Camera in the garbage, its his new thing everything goes there. So if Matt doesn't buy me this, than I will buy it for myself! I played with one on the weekend at Matt's firemans Christmas party and LOVE it!

AWESOME!!! And I saw it on sale!

Christmas Challenge 10 & 11

Day 10: Favorite Christmas songs/Carols


So You know I really thought I wouldn't have to think about this because I love Christmas and I love Christmas songs, and I think this would be my problem at work I listen to Magic 100. Its Christmas music all day long and I love it, and so do the kids.

So I think I will choose my top 3 songs of this year
1. Last Christmas
2. My Grownup Christmas List
3. All I want for Christmas

I could go on for sure......


Day 11: New Years Resolutions

Really. I hate New Years Resolutions, who ever follows them.
So This year I am not doing any. Because I more than likely wont follow it. So MAYBE I will like to make my resolution is that I would like to say by the end of 2011 I would like to be Pregnant!
Can that be a resolution!?
