Livie was the first to wake up- of course! After she was changed and brushed the sleepies from her eyes, this was the look on her face when she saw the goodies under the tree!

I was finished with the final touches at about 1:30 in the morning. All the wrapping was complete the stockings were done and I went to bed. Fell fast asleep. When I woke up Santa had come around 1:45 am to fill my stocking!~ I had NO IDEA Tod did this for me till the next morning~ I LOVED everything on that chair! lol! He did it alllllll himself! Not bad baby~!

I'm almost caught up on my downloading picture quest!
This was our Christmas for 2008. It was the best Christmas so far, bot Tod and I agreed! We had a blast with the kids, Livie was in complete awe of it all! Then as she watched her sisters open their gifts, that was just too sweet to watch~

Hello Kitty

So when I was a kid, my life goal was to collect and cherish as much Hello Kitty stuff as I could. My first stamp was HK, my first stationary set was HK, and my first cool pen and pencil set was HK! Believe me, I wasn't showered with the goods, I had to beg and plead for my treasures. I still have an obsession for the Kitty, she makes me giggle inside and makes me tickled when I step foor into a Sanrio store, the smell of the plastic ( I KNOW, I KNOW, BUT IT'S HELLO KITTY PEOPLE!!)
So when I was finally able to get the HK cart for my Cricut, I HAD to jump on it. Made the long drive to Joann's in Fremont that is new and a treat to shop in. All their carts were on sale for $38.88, instead of $89.00 to $99.00. (Grabbed a few more MUST HAVE'S!) Kira busted these cuties out while Livie was down for a nap.. Lucky me she only sleeps for an hour now instead of the 2 or 3 hour timeframe. lol!! Kira's just busted out the new Sesame Street Friends cart. Livie's up so I'll have to keep her in line while Kira tried to create!!

pics to share

I've been PIMPED!!!

I wan't feelin my blog any more, eh, it just wasn't thrilling me to open it up and post songs, comments, videos, etc.

So Ms.Val said she could PIMP my blog!
EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!
I love it, I love my banner, I love how the body of the blog is white with pink trim, it's clean to me and me likie!!!

Thank you Val for PIMPIN my blog!!
* I think I wanna little flourish of some kind off to the side, but I'm 100% down with how it turned out!!!

Late LATE pictures

I only have limited time at home to hid in my room and play on the computer. It's usually less then a half hour, and even that is a stretch. If Tod gives Livie a bath then I can download pics online, surf by my favorite blogs or try to even post a new blog of my own! ha! The problem I have is that there are 498 photos on my computer that I just downloaded and trying to get them into photobucket ends up being the long and painful process that I dread! augh! Now why would it take me 10 minutes to upload the 498 pictures to my computer but then it takes me close to 45 minutes to move 12 photos to photobucket? wtf is wrong with that? well, I'll tell ya! Tod usually gets nervous when Livie starts the whinny "beback!" meaning I am in the other room where she can't see me, so she knows I'll be back, so she calls it "beback". Then she stands at the door and tries to fit a toy- usually Elmo under it to get my attention. sigh. Heartbreaking I tell ya!
So photobucket is on mysh*tlist and if there is a better place MEANING QUICKER- to download my pictures, then someone let me know!
In the mean time, here is my attempt at catching up on late LATE pictures.....

Livie started with her pajamas on when we started but then ended up with just her diaper. She screamed like a banchiee when I took her to the room to get her cleaned up!

Halloween 2008......man, I gotta ways to go!

Hellooooo 2009

It's January 2009 and I have yet to write 2008 on paper work! ha! Yeay for me!

I don't have any new pics to share since I havent had a second to download them. Great!

I can tell ya our Christmas was probably the best Christmas we have all spent together. We all enjoyed each others company and laughed about gifts, listened to great music- Elvis Christmas cd-ha! And the highlight was watching Livie in the middle of her big sisters unwrapping all their gifts! Livie was with Tod and I in the morning, while the other girls were off at their other parentals until later that day. So Livie was not in the greatest of moods on Christmas morning, but when we all got home and the big sisters settled in the living room to open their gifts and dig their way through their stocking, Livie had a blast! She was tickled to have those three sisters all around her!
