Pedro Jones








Love the fact that our kids BELIEVE. Claire was so convinced this was the real Santa. She said, "no one is going to believe me that I got to meet Santa Claus." So cute. 
Our elf, Pedro Jones has been up to no good. He is all about having fun, making messes and enjoying life.  He fits right into our family with all the craziness that has ensued as of late.

I noticed Pedro John writes much like Kara Leigh! I am surprised your girls didn't notice.

I was more concerned that Pedro Jones has suffered a brain injury of some sort. It must be pretty bad considering he doesn't know if he is Pedro John or Pedro jones!

Ours is nameless in the box! I'm sure he is amazing!

Love ya,

Jessica

Ooo, you caught that, Jessica. Pretty good. He is an elf of many names.
@ Lisa--I didn't know you were doing the elf thing. I'd love to see some pictures of Tor's antics or is he boring and well behaved?

So far, Tor has taken a hot air balloon ride on a helium balloon...hung from cupboard on candy cane...not very exciting. I have lots of ideas via pinterest! Maybe that is where Pedro John/Jones gets his?

Could be! Interestingly, everytime Chris gets up first, Pedro is boring--sitting on a roll of tape, hanging from a light, for example. However, he is Mr. Crazy and Fun when I am first to arise. Why is that? Hmmm.

Ha. Ours stayed inside the roll of tape with scissors in his hand. I guess you can tell who got up first. ;)

A post

You wanted it, you asked for it, so here it is. A post. Hopefully this post will satisfy all your desires. I am not writing about the apple of my eye, Claire, but of the other apple of my eye--reality tv. I love it! Right now I am getting my fill of Big Brother. I have even lured Chris into my dark place. He mostly watched last season because Dick was such a jerk, but Chris is hooked. He's a dedicated viewer once again this season. Sadly, he was a fan of Matty who was kicked off a few weeks ago. I don't think I have a favorite. I find them all to be so obnoxious, yet I watch. Go figure. I obviously need some more excitement in my life. Girls who wear butt showing shorts, screaming matches, verbal abuse, crazy eyes, back stabbing, boys running around in their colored tighty whiteys (if tighty whiteys are colored, are they still called tighty whiteys?)---all in one episode! It is a gold mine. My second can't miss show is Housewives of Orange County or New York City. I really ...

0.0

Yes, indeeedy do. 0.0 is exactly the amount of weight I lost this week. Irritating! Here's the breakdown: number of times I cheated on my diet--ZERO! number of times I worked out--FIVE!! (running, no less). Now that is a mean, mean slap in the face. After I picked myself off the floor and resisted the urge to throw the scale through my window, I've come to realize that it is time to call in the big guns. There will be no messing around. Through a very valuable (HA!--sense the sarcasm) inservice this year, I've learned that I am "Green," meaning logical, research based, problem solver, mathmatical thinker. I am applying the same thought and strategy to my 'get fit' adventure. There will be no relying on the treadmill to tell me how much I've burned. That thing lies, LIES, LIES!! Take for example, the fact that each time I worked out, I burned at least 300 calories--most often 350, my pulse was around 87 (which is pretty much a near death resting ...

2 weeks...

As I write this, my house is being cleaned and not by me. This is my favorite day of the week. There is nothing like going home to a clean house and smelling the bleach to know it is germ free as well. This is my second good day in a row! I took the day off yesterday. Claire didn't have school due to Fasching (German equivalent of Halloween--minus the door to door trick or treating), so I gave Mya the option of hanging out with us as well. She took some convincing, but later said she had a great day. I must admit that I was focused on giving my back a much needed break, so my morning consisted of napping and laying on the couch. Not my best parenting in action, but it did wonders for the rest of the day. We met Chris for lunch, then returned home to enjoy the sunshine before the girls' swimming lessons. It was in the 50's yesterday, absolutely gorgeous! It really is hard to believe that we made it through the entire winter with no snow. I think it snowed possibly 2 days, b...
