The tree looks great! I love the lights! I LOVE the nativity scent. It reminds me of one of my favorite movies- "Love Actually" in which one of the kids played the octopus in the school christmas play! If you haven't seen it- you must- it puts Eliza's octopus in to context (and is hysterical!).
I have hoped to be a mother for as long as I can remember. My daughter was placed in my arms on November 12, 2006 in Hohhot, China. Then, a little over 2 years later, right in my own state, my darling baby boy was placed in my arms. Dreams really do come true!!!
Eliza: (said to my sister's pregnant belly) It smells nice! 11.25.08
Jamie: Eliza, Why doesn't Beau come to church? Eliza: (without hesitation) Because he's naked. 11.23.08
Eliza: (After bath time playing naked on her bed) Hey mom, my bum is talking. 11.18.08
Eliza: I want to wear my princess dress (her new Christmas dress)! Me: Oh, Eliza, I don't know... Eliza: Mom, you just need to smile...and be happy! Me: (I did as I was told...smiled, gave her the dress and was happy) 11.13.08
Me: Liza, watcha doin'? Eliza: (sigh) Having a really hard day! 10.29.2008
Me: Eliza, please don't say poo. Eliza: Can I say shampoo?
Eliza: (said to Heidi) You Sophie's mommy? Heidi: Well, yes, sort of.
Me: (after getting a BIG hug) My cup runneth over! Eliza: I'm not a cup.
She asks every man that holds her, "Are you poky?". She hates the feel of facial hair!
When introducing Beau, "That's my sister, Beau."
Said to me, "I'm two. You're five."
"Mommy, you have to be patient"
"ANSWER ME" (as I was reading something on the computer)
"Mommy, I just made a mess" (boy did she ever)
"Don't do that, man. (said to a LADY...not a man)!

How fun! I love the lights and what a great time to go, when it was warm!!! Love the tree and absolutely LOVE the octopus!
Funny nativity! We almost went downtown on Monday but jim got sick.
Beautiful tree!
Hey, the octopus shows panache and good thinking. He has enough tentacles to give everyone around him a Christmas hug ;0)
I loved your nativity scene. I'll bet Jesus would be ok with it as well. Your tree is beautiful. Please share any good news!
"Behold the Octopus" LOL
Made my day start off with a laugh.
