It took me FOREVER to get home with the Mancub from the shot clinic.  There was a 3 car accident with a rollover and two other vehicles off the road in the cornfields.  Some real industrial strength retard on the road with the ice and the snow.

ANYhoo...

I walked into the house to find THIS:



A 50" Plasma HD. 

:yahoo: :II: :bday:

Horry. Clap.  :o

Seriously just about the last thing in the world I expected.  My wife is SOOOOO getting lucky tonight, lol.

Nice score.

Ohhhhhh I love adoptions!  They make me cry every time! :bawl:  Even though my BIL & SIL went through 2 different birthmoms backing out at the last second they were blessed with 3 perfect little angels!  Every time I look at them my heart wants to just burst. :bawl:

Yes, it's definetly a leap of faith.... I am going to call her this weekend for the first time.  She is due this summer....We have just started the match process....It's an exciting and scary time right now. :-)

LOL!

The girls potty train easier and aren't so lively.  The drawback is that when the hormones kick in they become savage forest creatures with mighty powers.

Boys are more energetic. My Mancub doesn't walk across a room... He Swashbuckles! (A lot of diving and rolling, lol.)

It's ALL good! :)

Congrats, very happy for you. My niece and her husband have been going through the adoption route for a little girl from China. It's been 3 or 4 long years. I'm hoping they get good news soon. It's been so long for them.

Tell me about it!

I got her a Garmin Nuvi 205, a signed and numbered art print for her office that I got framed: http://freeny.deviantart.com/art/Pneumatic-Anatomica-53318794 and a red swingline stapler for her desk because she loves Office Space so much.  Also some ear rings and some odds and ends, scarves/sashes that match her dresses, bath stuff, etc.

Thank Gawd the present giving isn't a competition around here.  :p

We watched The Clone Wars on it and played some X-Box.

Papa bear is pleased. :)

Awesome gift asdf!!!


Have to agree with an earlier post of yours though, I think D6 having his wife on the mend is better than anything the rest of us could get this year.

NICE present, asdf!  Flat-screens rock (but LCD's are better than plasmas   :uhsure:  ).

I think you did more than a good job on picking out gifts for your wife...Garmins are wonderful presents for us ladies. ;)   (I love mine, and will be making use of it tomorrow :) )

But....the most important gift this season was news I received at the end of November.  I had been picked by a birthmom to parent her child.  After 2 years of paperchasing, the end is somewhat near. :-)


ooo....best present ever!!

Having been on RCCL twice, and dearly wanting to go again, I envy you a lot.  Next time, it might be Disney for us, though, with The Heiress now getting around better.  She did two short walking runs last night--four and five steps, each time after lifting herself up from the floor.  The steps were only about an inch long, but she'll be all over the place by New Year's.

My brother & SIL are huge fans of the Disney Cruises.  They love them and so do the boys.
