Mr. Sandman's on my shoulder

Good morning, I am very sleepy this morning, so if anything that I write seems unusual, please know its because I'm on the verge of driftng off and falling off my chair. I took some Nyquil last night and I guess it hasn't worn off.
We had a busy, but good, weekend. Friday night was the Christmas party at work. It was a lot of fun. The food was really good and I must make special mention of the succulent chocolate cobbler. It was SO good. The best I'd ever had. I will dream about that chocolate cobbler until I am fortunate enough to encounter it again. The company was good too! Jessie and I sat with Laura and Erick, my mom and Chuck, Brian and Mark. We were eating and laughing the whole time. I think everyone had fun. Poor Jessie encountered plumbing problems in the bathroom within 10 minutes of being there. But other than that, everything went smoothly.
Seth's birthday party went really well too. We had a joint party with his cousin Marissa, who is turning 7. They had a Superman and Supergirl party. The cake was really cute. Seth got lots of toys, and some clothes too, much to my delight. He has this loose tooth, its really loose, and its crooked now. He mastered the art of closing his mouth with only that one tooth sticking out!! Its is SO funny. My mom said he looked like Sarge from Beetle Bailey. Jessie called it his "Nanny McPhee tooth". HA! I took a picture of it. I do hope it falls out soon though!
But back to the birthday party. Lily and I had a disagreement about Bratz dolls. Marissa got one as a gift, and Lily started whining about wanting one, and I reminded her that her daddy and I didn't like them. Then Marissa proceeded to whisper in her ear that "I'll get you one for your birthday"...I think they are inappropriate for little girls, especially as young as 4 or 5. They dress like hookers! Halter tops, way too much makeup, tight pants, etc. Lily doesn't understand that though, she only knows that other little girls have them, and they are on tv, and she wants one. So more to come on that battle, I'm sure.
So now we're counting down till Christmas! We took the kids out to look at Christmas lights on Saturday night. They were so pretty. One of my favorites was a penguin jumping on a trampoline. They have gotten so inventive with outside Christmas decorations now. I even saw one penguin throw a snowball at another penguin! Very creative. :)

Bratz dolls are so UGLY! Barbie is a much better choice. At least her head isn't huge like the Bratz dolls.
