Christopher just cracks me up! He asked me to put presents under the tree. I normally don't do that until the night before Christmas morning after he goes to sleep because that way it looks like alot...and especially now that he's older and the things he wants are more expensive.....if I put stuff under there now....it would look no different Christmas morning...even after Santa comes! but I gave in this year. I just put a few. And you know what? They are buggin the crap out of him! literally! He said now he wished I didn't put them there because he can't stop thinking of what they might be. He questioned if they were clothes. He didn't want clothes! What...and 11 year old doesn't want cool clothes? I just don't understand that! I would only buy the best. anyway...he shook them all....asked what they possibly could be in the same size boxes...yes....my lil trick...put everything in boxes! He's convinced they are underwear! LOLOL That's hilarious! LOL Well last night....he asked me for my post office scale. I said "what do you need my scale for?". He says, I'm doing "what kids do". I found him out by the tree WEIGHTING the presents! What? Hold on...let me get my camera for this!
even the cat seems interested......
and here's that darn grumpy cat again....
I LOVE this picture. Wish I had it before I sent some xmas cards out.....bummer....
and here's my new favorite picture of the week......
Merry Christmas EVERYONE!!!! Have fun getting your last minute shopping done! I bet the malls are going to be crazy this weekend...or maybe not...I really haven't seen a "Christmas Rush" yet. Darn economy!
Great pictures. C is adorable. Your cat looks like my Molly only she is very petite and almost 18 years old.

How cute! I have so many gifts for nieces and nephews and cousins the boys would have a hard time trying to dig theirs out. Thats just too cute of C with his packages. I went to an outlet mall yesterday and was looking around at some books and saw one just for you so I will try to get it sent to you some time this week! You are always in my thoughts and prayers! Merry Christmas! Karen

That's hilarious that he was weighing his presents, kids what they think of what a cutie! That's too bad that it wasn't working for your comment on my blog. PLEASE try again and if it still doesn't work I will add you to the contest anyway. Have a wonderful Christmas!

Awwwww- his smile makes ME smile! He's a genuine, fine young man! You've done good hun! *pats you on the back*
HUGS!!!
Hahaha- he's about as analytical as you can get "Guessing". Now when he asked for the scale- I would have died laughing! You caught him! But at least he's not ripping and repairing the tape trying to PEEK! You should save the photos as your screen saver... oh wait- I bet you already did that :O)
Huggles!!

When my daughter was his age, I used to put jingle bells or marbles in her packages--it would mess up her guessing everytime!
Sweet photos.
Happy Happy!
