christmas etc.
it will be hard to tell this story as entertaining as it was in person but here's my best effort. both my niece and nephew are without a doubt, momma's kids. they looove their mommy. don't get me wrong..they love their daddy too, but his role is more of a play with you, tease you, fix your toy type of figure in the house. my sister is a stay at home mom so she's around the kids a lot more - seen more as the provider, comforter, meet my needs type of figure.
so christmas linner (lunch+dinner) comes around and my sister kuleen is up getting things on the table and tells eric, "honey your job is to make sure our daughter is fed." "ok," he says. he then proceeds to ask ellie what she wants... "ellie, want some ham?" "no" "ellie, want some potatoes?" "noo" "ellie, want some applesauce?" "nooo" "ellie, want some green beans?" "noooo." so eric proceeds to fill his own plate and takes a break in asking ellie if she wants anything. kuleen comes back to the table and starts to eat. about a minute into the meal and ellie rests her elbows up on the table with her head resting on top of them looking oh so pitiful yet adorable, empty plate in front of her, and goes, "momma?" "yes ellie?" "momma...im hungry..."
it was awesome. we couldn't help but all laugh. poor eric..it's not like he didn't try - his efforts just weren't appreciated by ellie so much.
christmas was good. same ole, same ole...kids open like 10 gazillion presents while us older "kids" get excited by household appliances and dvd sets. at least ellie made it thru her whole pile unlike last year where about 2 hours into it she refused to open another present bc she was too tired. rough life, kid.
tonite is the much anticipated holiday bowl with the ags looking to beat cal. hopefully it will be a good game and hopefully the ags will win.
AI has made himself comfortable in his nuggets jersey and led the team to their first win with him on tuesday. im going to see him play in person in february against the mavs and i cannot wait!!
that's all.
