Stuffed Like a Turkey
My title about sums up how I feel. We had a great Thanksgiving at my Mom and Dad's this year. We always have a Pajama Thanksgiving. It's been a tradition now for about 5 years. I pretty much use it as an excuse each year to buy new pajamas. It is such a cozy thing to do. Spend the day in a warm house, eating tons of food and watching TV or hanging out with family in your PJ's. I highly recommend it. My Mom got Dani the cutest little Nick and Nora PJ's from Target with sock monkeys and bananas on them. Truth be told if they had been in my size I would have bought them too. Funny though, Steve didn't think they were the hottest look :-)
I love the holidays and this time of year. I love all the lights, music and family traditions. I am not one of those people that feel depressed when the weather turns cold. We also live in CA though so I guess cold is a relative term right? HOpe everyone had a great Thanksgiving.

My Bebe is 2
I can't believe it on November 14th Dani turned 2 years old. The birthday, well it didn't go quite as planned. We had a family party for her last Saturday. About 15 minutes after we walked into her party at Nana's house she started throwing up everywhere. It was awful. She is just now getting better. She was sick all week straight through her birthday. We were supposed to go to the Happiest Place on Earth this week, that had to be postponed. We planned the trip months ago and our friends The Kings had to go without us. Really bummed. However, we are all recovering from this nasty stomach bug and thankful for that. Dani has slowly started opening her presents now that she is feeling better. I am going to share the video below of her Nana, Papa and Great Grandparents singing Happy Birthday to her on the phone. She sings to herself too which cracks me up. She LOVES to talk on the phone. I swear she will be asking for her own cell phone soon. It's too funny. If you are reading this today (Friday 11/16/07 and it's before 8PM EST) please go to www.giaandnino.blogspot.com My friend Holly is hosting a raffle to support two terrific families trying to bring home children in great need of being adopted from Guatemala and Azerjbain (sp?). There are some great prizes. Check it out if you can. Hugs, D

Busy Times
Once again it's been eons since I posted photos. I am going to put a few different posts with various happenings of recent months. Dani is closing in on 2 years old. We can't believe how time has flown. She is an amazing little person and we are so thankful to be her parents. The light that she has within shines so brightly in her eyes, spirit and her little laugh. She is spunky, fiery, sweet, charming and seriously hysterical. She has such a personality and she is wild.
Tyler is doing well in the 4th grade, struggling some with the homework and math, likes his teacher and is enjoying tennis lessons a lot. He is so great with his sister; loving and patient. He was a football player for Halloween, with the pads and everything. TOo funny. Both kids had a great time trick or treating this year. It was so much fun to watch them together. We are going to celebrate Dani's birthday this weekend with family and then we are headed to Disneyland with some friends next week.
