SCORE!!!!

WOO HOO!   YEAH!!!

My husband, stepdaughter and I were doing a jig -- we NAILED our first real Christmas with our toddler Alexandra!

She was a little scared to venture into the living room to see what this whole Santa-left-presents-under-the-tree event was all about ...
But once she stood near all the presents -- she FREAKED... lol... in a good way.  :)

Alex's big ticket item -- an electric Barbie jeep she can actually drive! 
Yeah, she almost drove it into a ditch near our street... lol. 

She found it sooo funny to stop-go-stop-go-stop-go-stop-go .. while we were trying to run along side her to help her steer.

Also got Alex a Leap Pad 2, which we call "her own iPad" ... so i can have mine back. lol!

Funny -- the best part about the day -- Alex was soo excited she got to keep her pajamas on!

Actually, we all did ... all ... day ... long.  HAHAH!

Eww.

Baby sis hangin' out on big sis' Christmas present !!

Don't We Need A Double Stroller?

The nesting process has begun  (not a fan of that word, but that's what we're doing...again.  lol!)

We got Alexandra's big girl bed -- YAY!   Just need to get a mattress for it -- which, at the rate we're going, could take another week.... ugh!

And NOW hubby wants to paint Alex's new big girl room ..... yes, now -- the month before baby's due.  Oy.   He doesn't like the pale yellow that's already in there.  I think it's fine, but ... whatevs.

Here's something else my husband and I disagree on.

He thinks we don't need to get a double stroller to cart around baby and Alexandra.  But I think we do!  

I mean, we're not always going to leave the house together -- what the heck are we supposed to do, with a child that can't walk yet and one that doesn't always feel like it?!?

I've started searching for one -- they're awfully expensive!

The only other thing I'd like to have but can't -- yet -- is clothes.

Problemo -- are we having a boy or girl ?!?!? 

The suspense is now killing me!   Don't know how hubby can stand it!!
