Merry Christmas Y'all!

Just Munchie here...to wish you and yours a Merry Christmas, Happy Hanukkah, Krazy Kwanzaa...you catch my drift!

My 'rents have been pretty busy recently. Looks like we may have some new walls to look at within a few weeks. I'm looking forward to having a new room as well (blue). Hopefully we'll get the yard set so that I can play outside soon. There are lots of trees at the new house. I'll bet I'll be climbing them sometime soon :) Luckily my dad knows all about how to take care of boo-boos.

The house is a bit old ('59), so my mom and dad will be doing some work on it. It's close to the city, though, and close to Town Lake - where my dad LOVES to go running.

We actually did go to San Antonio on Sunday with hopes of spending Christmas Eve & Day there... But unfortunately my dad got some G.I. troubles...so we...uh...rushed back home to take care of things. We spent a relaxing Christmas Eve opening a few presents (Thanks Grandma Jane, Aunt Jennifer, Cousin Ashley, Grandma Olga, and Grandpa Amadeus!), eating Christmas dinner, and watching a silly movie. We opened the rest of the gifts this morning after a breakfast....

Tonight we're going to Aunt Carol's house for Christmas dinner. She and her mom are super nice....I can't wait to see them again. I've gotten pretty chunky since I saw Aunt Grace last!

Tomorrow the 'rents are going to a basketball game (Spurs/Bulls) - I get to hang out with my favorite babysitter Brenda. She makes me giggle...a whole lot!

As a matter of fact, Grandma Olga did visit recently. I showed off my new trick of sitting and then standing up....

All in all, I'm looking forward to the New Year! Lot's of things to look forward to! (walking!!).

Have a rockin New Year's Day! xoxoxo Munchie

A Drinking Problem?

Jason just couldn't resist the following bib...(it's so true though...who knew breastmilk was so coma-inducing!)


Aunt Dirty (a.k.a. Diana) came to visit last weekend en route to her ophthalmology (spelling??) interview in Sacramento. Apparently things went well (go Dirty!)...so we'll keep posted for the results.

In any case, Diana helped us out tremendously - helped me clean out my closet postpartum, took me shopping, made chicken pot pie dinner on Saturday...and then made a Target run, created Christmas ornaments, and then went house shopping with us before hitting dinner and the airport on Sunday.

Though Diana was consistently in her pajamas whenever I had the camera ready, she still managed to take some great shots with Munchie...(wish I had that ability!!)

Just me and Munchie...

Otherwise things are well... We are currently perusing the idea (very quickly) of putting an offer on a house. It's a bit older (1959) that we were initially thinking - but it has great bones, an awesome location, a city view, and the price has fallen over $150,000 since the house has been on the market (5 months). There might be some significant renovations upcoming... We'll keep you posted!
