This month surely flew by. Way, way too fast for my liking. And in just eight short days my lil' man will be eight months!! No way!!!
So to start off, Christmas was so sweet and nice. We woke up early. Wrapped our spoiled doggies toys and let them be the first to open their presents. It's always so cute to see them get so excited. I can't wait till' Eli is joining in along the run down the stairs with them, rushing to get his presents under the tree. So after they opened their presents we let Lil' E opens his. He wasn't to sure about the whole thing, till' he noticed he was getting a new toy every time and then we noticed he started to grin. Lil' booger. We opened each others which I love to give Moi his. I love to get personal ones. I think those are so much better. Of course lil' man had to get one for papa too :) I'm so bummed though cuz I didn't get any pictures of us opening up our presents. :( Sad, sad face. My memory card was full and believe it or not Walmart was closed. So the whole freakin' day I have only one picture of evidence of how cute E looked or how dumb I looked with my brown shoes and red and black outfit. Long story I left my shoes I had planned to wear at Moi's parents house, so I had to go for the next best thing I had in our car. Brown, ugly flats. :( Was def. a bummer. Well Christmas is always amazing. I seriously have the best family ever. I love my family. I love how close we all are together. We aren't just cuzins and aunts, but we all are like friends too. We are so candid with each other. Such an easy going family. I can just chill with them all day long and have no problem with it. Well lil' man did pretty good with everyone. He was a lil' doll that day and being passed around to anyone with free hands. After doing our white elephant gift and the xmas exchange we ate like pigs and then headed to Moi's parents house, where E was not so happy. I have come to realize after 6ish Eli gets really fussy and just wants either me or Moi to hold him, my moms another one he'll go to, but don't tell Moi that :) But he's so used to seeing my mom cuz we are always together. Any who, we ended up leaving cuz Eli was just not having it. The nite before we tried putting him to sleep in one of Moi's moms extra rooms, but I think his lil' top tooth was bothering him, so we knew that was a no go that day.
New years Eve was another nite Eli was ready to call it quits. I ended up heading to my sisters house to play Just Dance 3 with my Cedes. Who by the way was only down for a week. :( Poopy butt!! Man that thing is a work out. I was sweating up storm. But gosh is it fun. I headed home around 830ish and attempted to make dinner, but it was just another no go nite. Nothing was going rite and all I wanted to do was eat. The chicken I had hoped to eat was burnt and the sauce was a lil' sweet, but overall it wasn't too bad. I gobbled it up and me and Moi just watched a lil' telly. Nothing, spectacular. We rang in the New Year and passed out. A few nites before I kept making fun of Moi for sleeping so early, so he made sure to stay up till' midnite, which I am shocked he did. I did have to help him a lil' by watching close eye he didn't doze off, which he does ALL the time. Kinda drives me a lil' crazy. Well actually a lot, cuz that boy does it ALL the time.
So I'm officially sad. Devastated that Christmas flew by. So quickly too. I can't believe by this time next year, me and Moi will have already had our wedding and Eli will be a year in a half. Crazy to think of. So I have decided my new yrs. resolution(s). What I can have more than one. So first, is to be a better wife. Yes, I kinda can be a lil' stingy in that department. I need to cook more. I love cooking too, it really is a task though with a baby. But I'm gonna do it. I don't care. And I need to get in shape and get my butt in gear with my photography. I have come up with the name E.M.G photography. I like the sound of it. It's lil' man's initials. I also want to be more committed to my volunteer work with a rescue for animals. I have known the lady who is the driving force behind it for a few years and this year I'm gonna make it a part of my part time work. I'm gonna start a facebook page for her rescue in hopes that more dogs get adopted. And I will be the lens behind all the dogs pictures, which I'm pretty excited about. Oh and last one, more involved with Eli. We started Gymboree class which I absolutely LOVE.
