Lauren: Mommy, tell Santa I want bouncy house, okay?
Me: You have to tell him.
Lauren: No, mommy. He scare me.
Me: Well, how about we write him a letter to tell him that?
Lauren: Yeah, mommy tell Santa I want a bouncy house.
Me: How is he going to get it to you?
Lauren: He press the ding dong.

We tend to order delivery at least once a week, whether it be pizza or spaghetti or chinese. I usually try and give myself one night off a week from cooking but if we have a really busy week, it may happen twice. Well, the Jaycee's were having their Christmas fundraiser and I told them I'd donate again. They requested that I just tape the check to the front door and they would send someone by to pick it up.

I forgot to tape it to the front door so they rang the doorbell.

And Lauren yelled, "SUPPERTIME"!

We haven't had delivery for three weeks now. I figured that was a sign.

Last weekend Ella had her first taste of a fresh, out of the oven sugar cookie.

Me: Ooooo, Ella. Is that good?
Lauren: Uh, mommy. Ella a baby. She no talk.
