I am pooped!

Friday night we had a holiday party, Saturday Ella got her hair cut then we went to the in-laws for Christmas, and today we had two holiday parties. One was a menorah lighting party. It was our first and it was so much fun with all the potato pancakes. YUM! Ella got to help light one of the candles - there were 4 menorahs.

On top of all the parties, Ella got to stay up Friday & Saturday until 11 pm. So tonight she went to be waaaaay early. But it was all fun.

The in-laws got Ella a Dora doll house WITH almost all of the accessories. I have no idea where we're going to put it, but we have to find a place.

I did talk with Ella that for each new toy she gets, she needs to give one away. She's starting to think that she gets whatever she wants and honestly, she kinda does. But I also want her to know that there are people out there who aren't as lucky.

But I got one package in the mail yesterday and most of my holiday cards are ready to go in the mail tomorrow.

It's Sunday and it can't be left unsaid...The Bears are giving me a heart attack! And it'll be official on Tuesday, but the hubby beat me 5 times this year in fantasy football. So he'll move on to the fight for 4th place and I'll be headed for the battle for the basement of the league. woot.

Back to the holiday cards!
