Pitiful poster...

...that's me.

I cannot believe I have not posted one time since Thanksgiving.

Pitiful.

Bullets to quickly catch up a bit, then I promise to post some pics and maybe even a video:

• Mom is much better & went home from the hospital the day after Thanksgiving.
• Roger survived (barely) his 12 hour drive to Florida alone with 2 kids, but it was not easy on him. Imagine being a man, alone, with a 3 year old girl and an 8 year old girl....how about those bathroom breaks? Hmmmm. They got it figured out, but again....not easy.
• I'm pretty much done with my Christmas shopping, baking.
• Some day I'm going to have a truly pleasant and relaxing December. Promise!
• Natalie is an amazing basketball player! First game, she scored the first basket, and several others, including a freethrow shot. Second game, she scored several baskets & has become quite a scrapper (read agressively stealing the ball & grabbing the rebounds for a fast break!) This is my baby who could not bounce a basketball 2 times in a row a couple of years ago.
• Natalie is also still making A's.
• Anna is going to be a gymnast I think. She is freakishly flexible I'm discovering. She can sit on the floor with her legs straight out in front of her. She tells her toes to "go away toes!".....then she points her toes so far that the soles of her feet are flat on the ground! No bended knees. I guess she has no ankle joints. Very odd.
• I suppose our new "tradition" (meaning...done it one time) of grilling steaks for Christmas dinner is now a firm tradition. Natalie drew a picture depicting our family at Christmas....including a drawing of Roger, donning his steak tongs (or is that a pitchfork) over a grill of steaks :-) He is also sporting a lovely "Don King" style coif.

OK.....at least I have posted SOMETHING. I hope to post again more regularly and include all these pics I've been collecting.

Hugs to all....and to all a good night!
