O Cannon ball
Guess who's excited for Christmas? *grin*
So my plans to have a cool mantle by Christmas hit an unexpected snag... so for now I put up a sort of mantle-like shelf that was on clearance at Menards. It was super cheap for a reason... the edges are dinged up bad and it was missing hardware... but, the greens hide the bad spots, it's temporary, and did I mention it was cheap? Hooray for having someplace to decorate and hang Cecily's stocking!
Yesterday my Mom and I went Christmas tree shopping. It's always good to have a second pair of eyes to point out bad spots and crooked trunks. hehe. I think we did good. Ours didn't get drilled perfectly straight, but it's not too obvious... and it's an otherwise gorgeous tree. It makes me smile. I realized this year that most of my ornaments are gold, silver, or white... and white lights... it might need a little more color.
I've been having lots of fun decorating our new house.
Oh, and I took Cecily to the Doc today for her two month checkup... she weighs 13.3 pounds... which is the 96th percentile or something like that. Bob started calling her Chubby Hugs... hehe, poor girl. And I panzed on getting her shots until next week. I have no desire to deal with an extra fussy baby all the way to Leo and back.
Blessings.
