Merry Christmas

It's 8:30 PM on Christmas Eve and I'm watching It's A Wonderful Life. The Baby is sleeping alone in her room, the little dog is sleeping in her bed and Tom is looking at the funky 300 mile a gallon car on the Internets. There are presents under the tree with the twinkle lights twinkling. Earlier the baby met our neighbor, Tom's friend and bandmate,


Dan.

Then she met Santa.










It is a wonderful life!

Merry Christmas Everyone!

I Think We Are In Trouble

The other day I was at the grocery store waiting to check out, when two men came up to stand in line behind me. Elean had been fussy so I was holding her over my shoulder. Right away she started smiling at the two men and they interacted with her. I wondered if she probably thought one of them was her father, just the way Trilli, thinks all men are Tom. Then a couple of days ago I sat with her to watch Tele-tubbies, and by watch I mean she will pay attention to it off and on for about a minuet at a time. Only it wasn't on and Blue's Clues was. I watched as she stared and then smiled at the TV, I looked up and there was Steve's face taking up the whole screen. She loved it! She is on the verge of laughing and so she makes these little sort of gasps and then squeals. She was mesmerized by Steve. So I sat her in one of her chairs. The same chair she doesn't stay in that long anymore, but she sat there and smiled at Steve every time he was on the screen.







A few days later the Colbert Report was on and she starting smiling at Stephen Colbert. I couldn't believe it. It wasn't the same exact response Steve (Blue's Clues) gets but Stephen Colbert doesn't sing and dance.


This baby is a flirt! And she already has a type.
