Tis the Season

glitter graphics Well.....David and I are off this morning to shop for all of our kiddos. That would be six at this time! lol We have done this for the past 17 years. It is the only time I can get the man into the mall. He is usually a pretty good sport about it. Makes several trips to the car and takes me where ever I need to go. Hope all of you that are doing the same crazy thing we are survive! ;) Things Update: Sophia is still quite under the weather...poor little thing. Coughing and wheezing. She'll be going to the Dr. on Monday. I think we can make it until then. I hardly want to go to a med center! YUCK! AND.....of coarse the little man woke up this morning with the snotty nose as well. Oh well......at least they are home where it is safe and warm. Thing Mama Update......oh dear, I have it too....throat is KILLING me, sinus drainage, feeling yucky! Which explains why I am up at nearly 1:00AM......hurts too bad to lay down! ;( Looks like a trip for 3 on Monday to the Dr. office.

Great new look.

I was out this morning, but not as early(9:00) as usual94:30) since I had to take 3 boys with me this year since the daddy had to work. UUGGHHH!!!
I am already done shopping for them, have them wrapped, and have brought them down to daddy's apt. so they don't get lost by the movers.

Hope the Things feel better soon.

Sorry the little ones are sick. We have the same thing going around our house to. Hope Sophia gets better son.

I love your blog makeover. Everyone has such cute Christmas themed blogs. I have no idea how to do that. Oh well, mine will have to remain the same. HA.
I love all of the pics of Thanksgiving Day at your house. I hope Sophia will be better soon. All three of us have had a bad cough lately and it is keeping us up at night.
Okay, I hope you got some bargains when you were out shopping. Ron and I went out tonight and didn't have too much luck. We did have a nice dinner though. Take care!

Your image never needs an overhaul and here you again getting blog enhanced.
Missed you. Nice to visit here. Which way to the spiked nog?
I'll lace yours with with antivirals. Snot has happened since Sept around here. I gave up.
We had a doc visit in Cuba too. Another catch up story.
Feel better spend little.

Look at your gorgeous blog! I love it. I was going to get mine up for Christmas tonight, but we are stranded in Des Moines until Monday. Something is wrong with the truck and no one can look at it until then. We're trying to make the best of things though. The kids are enjoying the pool in the hotel and we're going to the Science Museum tomorrow.

Elise said...

You all get well so you can enjoy the crazy season! Glad you got to enjoy your Thanksgiving though!

Holly said...

Uh oh. Being sick's no fun. Hope you all feel better soon.

Verna said...

I hope the Docs give you all something. They are pretty tight with the antibiotics these days. Glad you could get David out to shop. I'm not much for shopping so I prefer to work that day--usually slow at the hospital.

Jeff and Valerie said...

Oh I do hope you feel better soon. We have that same sick bug in our house.

I am trying to locate a Hello Kitty chair for you through our agency's gift shop. I'll let you know if I find one, and I truly hope I do, and will send to you as a bloggy Christmas gift!!!! Fingers crossed!

Andie said...

Steffie...thanks for the cute bracelet! I'm sorry you all are sick, that's NO FUN!! I love the new Christmas theme on your blog!
My hubby and I always make a big deal out of "Black Friday" or the "Opening day of shopping season" as my dh likes to call it! Usually my parents come for Thanksgiving and stay with the kiddos while we run out to hit the early bird specials, we are usually back in time for breakfast! But this year my dad is in the hospital so we actually had some friends/babysitters spend the night so we could still get out EARLY and do our shopping!

Christmas blessings-
Andie

Tiffany said...
