I am officially done Christmas shopping!! Yay, woo-hoo!! and before the stores get insane too :)
This year I'm not giving near as many hand made items as I wanted to, I just didn't see anything at shows that I thought family would like, and anything good on etsy was big and too heavy to ship otr for me to afford to ship, which is even sadder. And the relates that I have given my jewelry to don't really wear it, so I dunno if it just isn't to their taste or if i missed what their style is somehow. Either way not this year, maybe next year I'll crochet up something for them, or birthday gifts.
So now i can concentrate on making a baby blanket for my new neice or nephew to come. I really hope my brother decided to give me a niece, I have 4 nephews, (1 from him and 3 on hubbies side.) but no nieces as yet.
Maybe I should catch up on laundry too..... sigh, it never ends with 5 kids.
So, I have noticed lately that my kids all have different, but very silly humour. In the top we see my son who asked me if we could play kangaroo and baby, so being an intriging idea I found my stretchiest pants (I used to use them as maternity) and tucked my joey in my pouch.
Here we see my 3 biological kids stacked up with the middle child (age 7) on the bottom, eldest in the middle (11) and the youngest on top (5) Now this is especially amusing as the 7 yr olds teacher last year tols us she had very little upper body strength... she really looks weak here doesn't she?
Now this is what happens when you put a cap of bubblebath in the jet tub, so my 11 yr old discovered. Looks like a lotta fun actually. Yeah my kids keep me busy and highly amused. You just never know what will come out of their mouths or what you'll see them doing next. I love my job. Well except for the laundry.
