OK....so I don't have the greatest computer out there...

...but, I'm giving this whirl, anyway. I'm gonna try, emphasis on try, to post Monica's Christmas portrait with Santa and her cousins. It actually turned out quite good...especially if you bare in mind that not even a second after this shot was taken, both Monica and Isaac lost it! I doubt either of them will be sitting on this jolly fellow's lap again, anytime soon.

Well, I think we're pretty much ready for Christmas. We only have a couple more little gifts to pick up, which is good. I greatly dislike Christmas shopping this close to Christmas. Thankfully, we got a head start this year. Now, with a blizzard in full swing outside, it's beginning to feel and look a lot like Christmas. Yup, I'm humming that tune right now.

Other than that, we, or I guess I am, looking forward to singing at midnight mass on Christmas eve/morning. Monica will stay at home with "Bumpa". I'm hoping to get her to sleep, soundly, before mass so she will get a good night's sleep, but since she has never successfully slept without me by her side, I'm guessing she will be awake. Bumpa will have to have a lot of tricks up his sleeves to keep her rolling until I get back home.

So, with that, we wish you all a Merry Christmas and all the best for the New Year! Here's hoping I can get this picture up tonight. If not, it will have to be done on Grammy and Bumpa's computer...which we all know, I will never get around to doing!

    Ooh. I guess I should probably start my shopping at some point. Thanks for the reminder.

    I'm almost done my school work for the term. Working on my last paper, then 2 exams and a short reflection. By next Tuesday at noon, I should be a free man. Just in time to start really working at my new job.

    Anyway, see you in a week or two or something like that!

    Mum and I can't wait to see you, Andy, but I think I'm gonna keep my distance...just to be on the safe side.

    P.S. I won't sit in my stroller if you're the one steering.

    Monica! Wow, you're a quick learner.

    I can't believe you're still holding the stroller incident against me! That was almost half your lifetime ago. C'mon, forgive and forget!

    Geez. You act as though I actually crushed you or something.

    I am late sending a comment.
    The Santa picture is so cute even though it was just seconds before little Monica jumped off Santa`s knee, then she and Isaac started screaming.
    Next year should be more fun for them with Santa.
    Love
    Mum (Grammy)
