Look everybody, Jaedan lost his second tooth ! The tooth fairy left him a dollar. I told him ours were only worth a quarter. We could even buy something with it too. We are all getting ready for Christmas eve. Pictures with Santa are on the agenda this weekend. We're getting up early tomorrow and decorating the house. I've decided only two or three trees will be put up this year. The JZM"s don't get out of school for winter break till the 22nd. I am just enjoying being home this year. It's the first time in 11 years I didn't have to worry whether I'd be here. Jaedan and I got haircuts last week and my hairdresser told me how to do Jaela's straight. She said for me to wash it and make sure it was all the way dry before I used the iron.I used a blowdryer. OOPS !!! Trial and error taught me how not to dry it.

Jaedan and Jaela Marshall

My grandbabies are the greatest joy one can imagine. Since Jaedan was born on my birthday in 2002 my life hasn't been the same. We have pictures of every move , every occasion, every outfit that Jaedan had. I wore out the video camera, should have invested in batteries. Between our camera and the toys we still buy and use $$$$ batteries !!! Jaedan loves to cook with me. He bravely tastes everything at least once to see if he likes it or not and has a very developed pallet for a six year old. I guess we started him very early. Once Jaela came along in 2005 we had a real girl. Jaela loves to dress up, dance and once she started talking, well we have no peace unless she is asleep. She is our Princess and lets everyone know it! Thanksgiving is gone and we are planning our Christmas decoration party this coming Saturday. I love this time of year, even without money to spend . In fact without money we celebrate the true meaning of Christmas even more, the birth of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.
