I'm Ron Bur-gundy??

*the title has nothing to do with this post... it's just stuck in my head.

*apparently I took a little blog-cation....oops :)

*we had friends come in on Sunday (for Christmas) and I was in full on clean-the-house/finish-sewing-presents mode.

*I'm tired.

*our Christmas tree is totally dead already.

*this happens every. year.

*it may or may not have to do with the fact that we usually buy it around Zach's birthday... on the 24th of November.... 

*the fact that it's covered in approximately 700 mini-lights may also have something to do with it....

*I can't believe that just last year we spent Christmas Eve in NYC.

*It was everything we had dreamed it would be! (but somehow less crowded than we anticipated, weird) 

*I miss it like crazy.

*this baby in my belly is constantly beating me up, seriously it won't. sit. still.

*my ribs hurt

*all the Christmas presents I sent made it to their destinations in time!!

 *it feels really wrong to have 70 degree weather around the holidays

*I shouldn't be sweating like this in December. This preggo body needs some winter weather.

*this was what our place in NJ looked like last Christmas....I have yet to take pictures of our place here this Christmas. Before I do, I just have to vacuum the tree ;)

*Aubrey is sick today :( I just hope the poor thing feels better soon.
