'twas the night before christmas

After feasting on Italian good eats, we gathered around the Christmas Tree to open Aunt Toni's gifts flown in from the West coast.  This year she sent us gifts in the form of a grab bag game.  According to the rules, our serene Aunt encouraged thievery and gave us permission to steal a gifts from each other.  With a food coma taxing our spirit, not even sibling rivalry could tempt anyone to commit a Christmas robbery.    

emmett's shower

True to the definition of a baby shower, the soon-to-be baby Emmett was showered with tiny articles of clothing and huge trays of food.  If the shower is a prelude to his future, Emmett shall never go unclothed or hungry.   As Jon gently pointed out, an actual baby shower was not present. So I can only assume that his hygiene will be just like any other little boy, secondary. Looking forward to meeting Emmett and wishing him a happy, healthy and sticky boyhood.

Stay tuned for our next shower . . . Toni and Jeremy . . .
