Ebelskivers

Dinner last night was sooo fun! We feasted Danish style on ham, and potato & green onion ebelskivers, thanks to the gift of an ebelskiver pan gift from my beautiful sister-in -law.

Merry Christmas

St. Nicholas Day (a few weeks ago)

A good explanation of the traditions surrounding the Saint's feast day can be found here

Little S enjoys her first taste of candy :)

My Girl

Disney Fun

I'm sure there where other people in the park, but we didn't wait in any lines other than the "Small World" line.





Thats right folks, while other mothers are sheltering their children from the outside world, safe from all harm or flu bugs... I am taking mine out the one of the busiest places in the world and letting her lick poles.
Actually, Little S. was only sniffing the pole.




The castle was all dressed up for Christmas. So pretty!

A Party!

Our Little S. was a fairy, Jer and I where "ready for bed".

A Sad End

We are Angel fans. The season did not end well. We did get some cute pictures though.

Roar!

Hear the tick- tick, Bunny?

Simone Loves Her Family

Facebook

I am able to load pictures and video from my phone directly to facebook. I just send them to my facebook account as if I was sending them to another phone. So easy, and I don't have to have a computer to do it!

Big Girl

My Little S. just rolled over (front to back) for the first time! She was playing on the busy mat that her Great Uncle L. and Aunt B. (thank you) gave her. She was so excited and she began to wiggle so much that she tumbled over. We put her on her tummy and she did it again! I have video, but until we have our own computer I won't be able to upload it.

Happy 4th!

Stolen Photos

Little S., and Grandpa Marc (Jer's Dad).

These photos were taken by Grandpa. I have not yet gotten permission to post them so... I hope Grandpa says it's okay :)

Little Baby Big Chair

Little S. joins us at breakfast.

Her hair is getting long enough for her to have bed head!

By the way...

...Jer and I have started having a regular Friday night date. We look for inexpensive things to do close to home, and after Simone is asleep we go. So far we have walked on the beach, gone to Disneyland, and gone to the movies. which brings me to the point...

Last year we were very pleasantly surprised by how fun/good "transformers" was. When we first heard that the toys we had enjoyed so much as children were getting their own full length (live action?) film we laughed out loud. But it turned out to be pretty okay. It was full of action, but it also had enough down time that you wouldn't get motion sick. It also had a fair amount of charm somehow.

On Saturday we went to see the sequel. Oh, disappointment! It was nonstop action, crass humor, and lots of slow motion girl-taking-her-top-off close ups (nd John Tuturro in a jock strap and nothing else!!!). Needless to say Idon't recommend the movie.

On the other hand it is some of Michael Bay's best work.

Little S. helps Cousin Christina & Cousin Mike tie the knot

Simone was invited to be in Christina's wedding a couple of weeks ago. Here are some pictures...



Isn't Christina beautiful, and she is as sweet as she is beautiful!
