Merry Christmas Grandma

The girls are showing the Christmas spirit and are giving each other hugs:

Hugs on Christmas

And sliding down the stairs...

Sliding down the stairs

And the girls have something to say to grandma...

Merry Christmas Grandma



A new housing development went up this Christmas morning....

Mommy, Daddy, Brielle, Rianne, Teagan, and Elise...

Teagan's moving in furniture...

And trying to find a place for all the babies.

Rianne's got one baby in the bathtub and two at the changing station. Wow, Rianne, you're a really good nanny...

Rianne: Daddy, my babies are swimming. Teagan: My babies sit up and behave...

Teagan: This one's not behaving. C'mon baby, sit up...

I give up, the babies just do what they want...

Are the babies a metaphor for us I wonder...

Wow, Rianne, you got the girls to sit in the tub and play nicely...

Papa, drink your orange juice, it's good for your anti-oxygen, no anti-oxiclean, no anti-oxident, wait, no hyphen and "dens" means tooth, so it's spelled antioxidant...whatever, drink it...

There's the puppy's dog food...

Eat your food doggy.

The puppies are dirty, they need a bath...
 
Baby goes potty in the potty...

What about Brielle? Brielle go potty in the potty?

No, daddy, baby go potty in the potty, I Brielle goes potty in the Dora. The baby isn't a metaphor for me, that's silly...

Oh, what smells. Ooops, daddy, Brielle needs changed.

Merry Pre-Christmas


My finger's got an "ouchy"
It's Christmas Eve, there's no injury time out! Okay...
 

We're going to see Santa in our sleigh!

Teagan, get off your iPad and push!

I think we're doing it wrong...
 
Apparently, in the MidWest, Santa's Sleigh is a Chevy.

Time for bed, time for bed...

Santa's coming tomorrow. Run!

Over the wall!

See you tomorrow. Merry Pre-Christmas,

It's "Christmas Eve," you've been hanging around Daddy too much.

You have to play Major Tom by Peter Schilling on YouTube while you read this blog

Daddy, I'm tanning!

Didn't you say she was the quotation fingers, "Smart One?"

Daddy, Let's play hiding...

When I close the door, you count...

Don't count yet...

O.K., count!

4,3,2,1 earth below us, drifting...

...falling...

...floating, weightless...

calling home...

Says Major Tom...

Chorus! 4,3,2,1 earth below us, drifting...

falling...

calling home...
  
Dad, I'm just not feeling the whole 80's Peter Schilling "Major Tom" thing...



I am...the count goes on!
 
We look tough!

So Teagan and Rianne got suckers and thought they would touch noses...

Brielle's expression says it all. Seeya next week for Santa!

1st Snow / Opening Doors / Jumps

Good Job Teagan, keep shoveling...

You too, Rianne...

What about Brielle taking a turn?

I'm upper management. What about you mom? I'm definitely upper management.

Guess I know where I stand...


You guys ready for bed?

It's time for bed.

Just wanted to mention it's 8 PM...



...definitely necessary to break out those emacs and adjust that perl script...

Brielle, you can open doors?



Don't tell dad we're in here...

Get in the shower, go hide...




I'm closing it...

I'm 'posed to tell you Teagan and Rianne are not hiding in the bathroom, look somewhere else...

Those aren't chairs, those are launching pads...

Rianne, you okay?



Oh, no, you look hurt, I can help you!

Brielle, I'll be right back...


Dr. Teagan to the rescue...

That's all for this week...
 
Seeya...

Oops...this button...oh, wait, look at our videos below!



Going down the stairs!
