Christ is Born!

Merry Christmas! Thank you Kelly for the cute little nativity set, Isabella loves it!
I have some cute pics of her setting it up. But our computer is being stupid (sorry Maclina, for calling you stupid) but we can't load pictures for some reason.

Today

Where do I begin?
I have just sat down with a full glass of wine. Bobby is holding the babe and Isabella is quietly playing with stickers (note to self, buy more stickers). Tell me Kelly that these terrible twos end. I think I might be able to hold on to some bit of sanity if I know these terrible twos will end in at least a year.
Today started off well. I was able to make some yummy coffee with a splash of eggnog and got Madeleine ready to go to our Dr. appt. Bobby is sick so he stayed home with Isabella.
I am not exaggerating, I arrived at the Dr.'s at 10:40 and left 1:40! I'm not exaggerating. I sat in the Dr.'s office for an hour. After and hour I was going to pop my head out of the door and say something, but a nurse pop her head in a goes, "oh good, your still here." What the heck!
The Dr. came in 20 minutes latter and checked out Madeleine. He asked me when her birthday was, I said, "10/21/07." He then said something about he birthday and Christmas being so close together. I didn't think anything of what he said, because I was so annoyed. Then he said he would like to see her when she is 2 months old. I said, "she is 2 months old."
The Dr. replied, "Oh I thought you said 12/21/07." Huh? Today's date is the 11th. I didn't say anything. The whole reason this appointment was schedule was to have a echo cardiogram on Madeleine's heart. But some how this was not scheduled. They were all very apologetic, and realized it was their fault, but really 3 hours! 3 hours of sitting in a yellow colored brick room, with no cell phone. I always carry books around with me thinking maybe some how I'll catch some down time. I forgot the books this time. Well in the end Madeleine heart is fine. She has a little hole in it, but should close up in a year. I'm not concerned she's healthy and happy.
Now I'm to tired to write the rest of my day. To make a long story short we decorated our tree tonight, it's beautiful, through a bit of chaos came beauty. I'll take a picture latter and post it.

This video is about 3 years old. But anytime I need a good laugh I watch it.
Listen to them man in the background. This was the most chaotic petting zoo I have ever been to. There were donkeys, goats, sheep, turtles, deers, and some other critters.
At one point the goat was standing on top of the turtle, I have that on video too.
