Gweniveve is 3

• she is very affectionate, always wants hugs and kisses
• she has been a busy girl since she was in the womb

• she takes the corner of her blanket and poke her eyeball (very weird huh?)
• she has always been a tomboy, she loves cars, balls, sports, action figures. Hence the CARS birthday.
• she is not shy, she gets nervous, but not shy. She walks up to just about anyone to talk to them.
• She is one tough cookie
• She has had torticollis, hip dysplasia, broken leg, multiple black eyes, dislocated elbow and we know that is not the end.

• She remembers EVERYTHING. It is amazing.
• She HATES getting her nails/toenails cut. She screams bloody murder.
• She has loved Elmo since she was one years old and has had her favorite Elmo for 2 years and he is always by her side.
• She calls my Dad Papa Helen. It is hilarious. (she calls my Mom Grandma Helen so that we know the difference between my parents and Brett's parents)
• She can already spell her last name.
• She loves her LP.

Happy birthday Gwenie!

A list.

This is what:

• fainting (luckily Brett was here to catch me)
  
• throwing up
• throwing my back out
  
• pregnancy exhaustion
• lack of sleep
• nauseousness
• plus so many others that I do not care to list
  

will do to your home. Trust us, both Brett and I think that this picture does not do it justice, it is much worse in person.

My wish list.

I have been sitting here thinking of Christmas. Crazy I know but it really is just around the corner. For once I was thinking about what I wanted. I actually have some things in mind, and I usually don't. I have some expensive items that I know will not be practical for Christmas, I will need to save money for a long time to buy, but I still can hope and dream right?

Prime example:

1.Canon EF 24-105mm f/4 L IS USM Lens is one of the best, and really expensive. I can dream.



But this one is more practical (and MUCH cheaper)

Canon EF 28-135mm f/3.5-5.6 IS USM Lens. I have the camera but I want the perfect lens.



Confession. I love coats. I am obsessed with them. I know I live where most people would think that just a light coat would be fine, but no, I LOVE winter coats. They are so fashionable and fun. I want this one, it is the perfect shape and color for me and surprisingly enough I found it at Target.

2.

Boots or as Brett calls them "Hooker Boots". I love me some high heeled, tall, great boots for the winter so that you are able to still wear skirts and not freeze. Extra bonus, Brett thinks that they are super sexy. My boots I have now are old and not really in fashion anymore and I want some new ones. I found these and I love them but I don't know how I feel about the buckles. I am still on the look out for the perfect pair.

3.

I miss clothes shopping. For me. Since Gwenieve I have become the grab and try on at home person. That is so not me and I miss taking my time to find the perfect clothes and try them on IN THE STORE.

4. Babysitter and some money for clothes.



My SIL Kami makes gorgeous blankets. She has made Gwenie 2 and me 1, so far. I just saw this blanket on this blog and I want it. Is is just so awesome.

5.

Oh wait, I have another one that I thought of. I have an OLD version of Photoshop and it is not mine so I can't buy the updates. I really want to OWN Photoshop so that I can update it, so any version will do. I love Photoshop!

6.

There I think that is all the I want for Christmas, but this is just a wish list and I know that I am dreaming. What does your Christmas list say??
