My daughter is a cookie thief

Isabella decided to steal a cookie off her Daddy's lap and then tease him. She thought it was hysterical. And for once, we actually had the video camera ready.

Christmas Time is here!

So we have started some of our decorating for Christmas. We have our tree up. We even bought some plastic ornaments that it wouldn't be a big deal if Isabella got ahold of them. I put the tree up while she was taking a nap, so it was fun to see her when she got her first look at the tree. And even though it may look like she's helping to decorate the tree in the pictures below, she's really un-decorating the tree. She's been pretty good today and hasn't bothered it too much. I have a feeling that we will be re-decorating every couple days or so.

Black Friday

Yes, my sisters and I were a little crazy and went shopping on Black Friday. Potomac Mills opened at 12am. We got there a little before 2am and the parking lot was packed.



We went to all the stores we wanted to in the mall and were done about 4:30. We then trekked down to the Rt 1 Walmart. We got there about 20 minutes before it opened and the line was wrapped around the building. We were smart and waited in the nice warm car and waited until the line was mostly in the building before we went in. After that we left and got to Home Depot at 6am. We got the last two of the Prelit Xmas trees that were on sale. Then we headed over to Kmart. We were done shopping and I was home in bed asleep by 7:30am. Not too shabby and we got some awesome deals. And now I only have a few more xmas presents to buy.


A week or so ago, Mike got a huge box of server equipment (yes, he's a big nerd). Isabella had fun playing in the box.


And here's my little DIVA. She had her beads and Aunt Pam's fuzzy scarf on. She was quite the show.


And just a fun close up of my munchkin.

Headstart on the Xmas pics

So, we decided to go walk the mall tonight and of course, we happened upon Santa's village. So we thought we'd beat the rush and crowds and get Isabella's picture with Santa. She wasn't quite as excited about it as us. But we got a couple good pictures. Check it out:
