sleigh bells ring, are ya listenin?
Kids are stoked. It is amazing what snowflakes do to a three year olds face. Bubs walked out of daycare and lit up like a Christmas tree. SNOW! It is so darn cute how much kids love the sight of snow. His talk ever since has been about sledding, snowman making, where are his gloves, get out his boots, HE IS READY.
Buggy? Yeah, she loves it too, but boots are her issue. I bought her a really cute new pair while out shopping...and she can't get her darn foot in them. Her unfashionable, practical boots from last year...TOO SMALL. The cute fashionable ones from last year, well...she squeaked them on this morning. Her face didn't grimace too much. She is growing so FAST. I can't keep up. She desperately wants me to get her a new pair today (ya know in my spare time) but I just can't go without her. She is going to HAVE to try them on because I guess I am just in total denial that she needs another size up.
Speaking of boots, I have a really cute pair of high heeled boots. How do I not sound like a one horse sleigh when I walk in them? Seriously, I don't know if I walk heel heavy or what, but I sound like a truck walking down the hall.
oh and this just in...get your grinch name...thanks to Hallie @ Wonderful World of Wieners for passing that along....My grinchy name is Crabbycrab Crankybottom--so ya better watch yo back. ;)
Actually after getting my name, I realized I really am crabby lately. I don't know why, pms is over...maybe all that jiggin has made me moody. I don't know. Buggy has an attitude, Bubs is being defiant, Hubs is working 3-11s so haven't really seen him which is annoying (almost as much as when he IS around). I don't know. This time of year at work is stressful with so much to do (yet here I sit blogging).
This weekend is my Christmas party for a local moms group I am in...I am really excited about that...so I am going to put my chin up, smile, and hope the better mood comes.
Your grinch name is awesome!!!
ReplyDeleteI highly recommend you get some of those chocolate covered pretzels - they are famous for making Crabby people LESS crabby!!

Okay, I'm a little concerned. My Grinch name is Woefulmiser Crustypants! eeuuuww! Is that anything like the "Crusty Crab" on Sponge Bob? :) Maybe I have crusty crabs in my crustypants?? (I'm cracking myself up) I love the monkey picture. Highly recommend it, just stick your fingers in your ears and go "la,la,la,...can't hear you...la,la,la"! Have a good one!
ReplyDeleteeveryone sounds like a horse when they walk in heels OR boots, so of course high heeled boots are double trouble. i'm concerned, tho, that you seem to sound like both a horse AND a truck...maybe a little dainty horse walking is in your future?? ;)
ReplyDeleteWe don't get snow here, of course, but I love the snow! I'm the one in my family that lights up when I see snow falling from the sky - I just love it. Take care and enjoy the snow and those kiddos - Kellan
ReplyDeleteCrabby Crankbottom? I LOVE IT!
ReplyDeleteAnd I'm so with you on the snow. We now have 18 inches (YES 18 inches) and we're still loving it. I love a white Christmas!
My daughter is dying to play in some snow, but when we get it here, it's ice (and ten below)!
ReplyDeleteIt's a rare thing for me to see another Stacie who spells her name correctly so when I saw your comment on Hallies' world of weiners, I just had to come over and check you out!
ReplyDeleteMy grinch name is CrabbyCrab Poutyshorts. I too have been a bit on the Crabbyside lately, but I do NOT pout and it's much too cold to wear shorts so I'm not sure where that comes from. LOL
Nice blog..I'll be back..love the Christmassy graphics and music too.

Seriously, I can't keep up with how fast my kids feet grow, it drives me INSANE!
ReplyDeleteIt must be contagious, I have been grumpy all week too. It's Friday though and the weekend is here, Hooray! I'm much happier today...it has nothing to do with the yummy chocolate carmels I have inhaled- Yeah right! Have a great weekend.
ReplyDeleteWow, you do have a lot going on. Good luck with the snow...you know the issue I am dealing with :-)
ReplyDeleteGrrr, my reader is not picking up your new posts. I am gonna have to fire it - :-)
ReplyDeleteI have the same problem with my boots.... I don't like the attention click click clicking draws.... it's like I am the only one to ever wear them!
