its crunch time

Three days until Christmas! I have been busy. Shopping, cleaning, baking, crafting some gifts, chasing a gremlin around, oh and Pat came home yesterday (woop woop). I have actually been thrilled to have something to do with my time. Usually I'm bored...vedy vedy bored. I am really good at complaining about it, however, now I get to complain about all the stuff I have to do :).

We have Christmas parties/get-togethers starting on Thursday. I need to get my baking done. I plan on making one type of cookie. I'm over-achieving, I know. I have also been requested to make queso for the Christmas Eve party and since its easy and requires 4 ingredients, I happily agreed.

As I type this, Pat is sitting next to me. He is having a whiskey and I am having a bud light. We were looking at some real estate together and I made sure to tell him a few times how happy I was that he was home. Pat has one more hole to drill after Christmas, which should take around three days, and then he'll be working in town for awhile! We're looking forward to it.

I have to share some pictures of Liv's favorite new activity. There is something you should know before I post these....Liv loves Lily. The only problem with their relationship is that Lily doesn't love Liv back. It breaks my heart that Lily won't let Liv lug her around however and wherever she pleases...so I thought of an idea. I swaddled my little 5lb Lily in a blanket and let Liv hold her like a baby.
lily is thrilled...
