We're still here..this is for Nicole and Becky

First off, I did not realize how long it has been since I last had a post. I have been waiting for more comments on Darwin's tag. (See below and please read, unless you already have.) So what has happened since November 25? We celebrated our 4th wedding anniversary. (Well, we did not really "celebrate". It was on Thanksgiving so we spent the day with family. Later that night we did go see Quantum of Solace, it was very entertaining and I think that Daniel Craig is very cute.) We have started with the Christmas Festivities-that I LOVE. We went to see the lights on 25th street and we saw Santa-who Jensyn does not like-just ask her. We had cookies and milk with Santa at the Treehouse-very fun and yummy cookies. Hurley got a Christmas present early from Angie. It is a Bounce Bounce Baby and he likes it as long as he is not left alone in the room. Hurley now rolls over from front to back, back to front, and he pushes his bum in the air. We started giving him solid foods-beans, bananas, peas, rice cereal, and carrots. He doesn't really like any of it. I had book club and I made a very delicious and super easy dessert. I got the idea from a restuarant called Firehouse Pizza and the dessert is a Fazookie. It is cookie dough cooked in a cast iron pan, served right out of the oven with vanilla ice cream and carmel topping. Oh man, just writing about it makes my mouth water. I want one right now.....Jensyn got a haircut from Grandma Nancy and her hair looks very nice and I was surprised at how well Jensyn sat still-it helped that Grandma is very quick. Jensyn loves music. She sings "Santa Claus is Coming to Town," "I Love to See the Temple," "Popcorn Popping," "If You Chance to Meet a Frown," and so many more that she has learned in nursery. Her voice is so sweet. Someone once said that the best sound is the sound of their child singing-I would have to agree.

P.S. I have been watching the Biggest Loser: Families, and I am SO glad that Michelle won!!!!

All of us with Santa. Jensyn was nervous and Hurley was pretty mad
-sometimes I wonder why we even do such things.

The Fazookie-it is so good!!!
