YAY for grats! I'm grateful for....

1. A DH who is beginning to communicate better thus making it easier for all of us, yay for both of us sticking with it!
2. A really fun "hostess party" I had for disc*very T0ys yesterday. I'm not overly exited about their stuff but Some of the games are cool and it was interesting to watch the hostess try to deal with a bunch of crunchy moms that don't take themselves seriously. She had no idea what to think of us!.
3. Hanging with my mama friends at the party yesterday. All the GF stuff I baked was GONE and got tons of compliments. I got to hang out with 7 kids (two of them under 4 months!! - Didn't help my baby fever but, yeah), two couples,a mama that got to leave her kiddos home and even Lunarpapa had someone to talk to! We had so much fun!
4. Lunarpapa, for letting me rest after the party and for taking the bulk of the kid duty today since I was up with munchkins most of the night. He still doesn't fully comprehend how sick I am but he's starting to respect the illness and my limits, and that is awesome.
5. My kids napping...RIGHT NOW!
6. My pretty little Christmas tree!
7. New plates from T*rget!. Thanks mom!
8. Love. Mine, yours, my kids, my husbands, just, LOVE.
9. I'm grateful the squirrels who have taken up living in our house haven't eaten through the wires yet.
10. Coffee.

Totally!!

1) Entirely alone 'cept for the dog.
2) Eating delivery Chinese food.
3) Back at hipmama. Holla.
4) Living in California, but about to visit the snowy hometown. Best of both worlds.
5) All holiday presents costing less than $100.
6) Use of a car that ain't broke.
7) Persimmons and lemons and kumquats in December.
Cool Love to and from my man, my family, my friends.
9) Hot water from the tap. Nothing compares!
10) Time!!!!

I'll go!

1. Good coffee, and I didn't have to make it or pour it or anything. Just savor and drink.
2. "Cat" book, which will entertain T. for quite some time, all alone. Giving me time to play on computer.
3. Elbow dimples.
4. Having to stifle giggles while having sex cos we might wake the baby (she sleeps in our room) - gives it that kind of teenage butterflies we might get caught doing something naughty kind of vibe.
5. Cozy slippers.
6. Wonderful sister-friend who is going to babysit for us while the Wee Papa and I go to a concert this afternoon.
7. Concert is The Messiah. Good holiday tradition, we go every year. I love losing myself in the music and it never fails to make me teary-eyed.
8. Indoor playgrounds.
9. Mexican wedding cookies - so yummy, so addictive.
10. Raised eyebrows on my baby's little face. Cute and funny and goofy.
