My Little "Angel"

Okay, so Lily's preschool is doing a Nativity Play on Thursday (obviously her preschool has no ties to the public school system...thank goodness). Anyways, Lily is playing one of the three Christmas Angels who appear to the shepherds. Her line in the play is "Fear not." Well, little Miss Sassy has decided that's just way too tame a line and is trying to spice things up for her play. So, anytime I've asked her today what her line is, she's responded with something new and silly and she just thinks she's so funny (which I have to agree with her on). So, I thought I'd share some of the best responses...and let me tell you up front, I am not embellishing at all, these are exact quotes from Lily when asked what her line is in the play:

#5: "Ho Ho Ho" (this is the only line that has anything at all to do with Christmas)

#4: "Your wish is my command, oh Princess." (taken from a Backyardigans episode)

#3: "Abra Cadabra" (not sure about the spelling, but you get the point)

#2: "Let's do this thing."

#1: "Underpants."


Needless to say, I am anxiously awaiting the actual play. I'm half worried, half excited to see what she'll say when she's on "stage". Leave it to one of my kids to rewrite the nativity scene...I'll keep ya posted. Keep your fingers crossed for me that I'm not totally and completely humiliated by what my little darling comes up with. Love ya-DeEtte

Some Lily

The last couple of posts have been Connor-centric, so I thought I'd grace you all with some recent pictures of the little lady in our lives. The first couple of pics are from Thursday before preschool. They were going on a field trip that day to see Santa and she was especially excited and feelin' a little sassy. She's always the cutest when she's feelin a little sassy. The second set of pics are from church on Sunday. She just looked so darn cute in her new pink dress with her little bows and sweater, I pretty much couldn't resists snapping a few shots of the cuteness. It's getting harder and harder to get good pictures of Lily because she wants to "smile" when she sees the camera and she does this thing where she sticks her teeth out and kind of looks like a rat. But she's still the cutest girl in the universe and even funnier than she is cute. I have nothing of report to share, just super duper busy getting our ducks in a row for Christmas. So enjoy the cuteness. Later.

Connor's Piano "Recital"

So, for some unknown reason, Connor's piano teacher decided that December 23rd would be a good day for the Christmas piano recital...right??!! Seriously, who isn't going to be either out of town or otherwise occupied on December 23rd? Since we will be in Las Vegas on that date, we thought we'd share the song Connor would've been playing if he had been able to attend his piano recital. Keep in mind, the kid's only been taking lessons for like 3 months...I think he's a musical prodigy! If you don't agree with me (and if you don't it's probably just because you're jealous), kindly keep your opinion to yourself. hehehe
