a little of this & a little of that

first, a little of THIS weekend....

Friday
I had to babysit until 1:00 in the morning.

Saturday
I finished and put away mountains of laundry.
Then I went over to one of my friends house to spend the day baking with her.
We baked 3 different kinds of cookies, I only took one tupperware full home. I don't need cookies laying around our house ;)
Billy and I got home around the same time early that evening and decided to go have some pizza. We came back home and watched the WILD hockey game and I wrapped presents.

Sunday
I went to the gym then cleaned the house, finished Christmas shopping and present wrapping.
Then we went to my parents house and made homemade pizzas and watched the Survivor finale. Billy ended up winning the pot of money! woo hoo! :)
I was surprised Natalie won but hey, worked out great for us!

Here are a few pics from pizza baking last night....
making our pizzas....
Dominic loves black olives, I think he ate them all.
I love how his mouth is open anxiously awaiting the black olive he dropped on the counter ;)
D helping himself to some italian spices ;)
the guys making their pizzas...
after din, dominic being a stinker.... he is pulling my sisters hair.
he walked behind her chair and i happened to take a pic right when he grabbed it.
Dom fighting with Joey, notice Joey's mouth around Dom's wrist.
These two rough house with each other all the time, ha!
D kept getting into Grandma's decorations and throwing them so he had a time out in the corner ;)
playing with auntie lexie, Dominic gives great eskimo kisses....
sometimes we are mean aunties and we tease the baby ;)
Dominic likes to line up Grandma's Hallmark snowmen and press all the buttons...
second, a little of THAT….

I wasn't planning on posting today because I don't like posting when I can't comment but then I figured I have off the next 6 days so that will be plenty of time to catch up (or so I hope)!

I am SO happy I have 6 days off!!! We have plans every night so I know the time off is going to go quick. I'm excited for Christmas and all of our fun plans though!!

I hope everyone has a very MERRY CHRISTMAS and/or a happy holiday season!!!!

I love your family pictures. They make me miss my family so much! I swear, that kiddo gets no attention. I'm starting to think he might be a bit starved for attention actuall (she said sarcastically)! Happy Holidays!

Sounds like a good weekend to me, well except for the punishing part,but hey sometimes those kiddos need it. I love how he lined up the snowmen too cute.

Alison said...

I love the one where he's in time out! Did he wedge himself between the counter and a shelf??? Haha! Poor little guy! :) Merry Christmas hun!!!

Love Lace said...

Mmmmm...homemade pizza!!! I have never done that at home! What a cute idea for a get together though! Merry Christmas!!!

Jules said...

I’m glad you got to do some baking with your friend and got presents wrapped for Christmas. I finally got around to that on Sunday! Homemade pizza sounds delish. I made a frozen one this weekend, but nothing tastes better than one from scratch! The pics of Dom helping with the pizza are too cute.

That is so great that you’re going to get some time off. Starting on Wednesday, I’ll get a little break too. It will be so nice! I hope that you have a fabulous week sweetie!

Lindsey said...
