Day 6

These are a few of his favorite things.. .
Chris loves his Mini. He loves making elaborate snowflakes.
He loves making heart-shaped meatloaf.
He loves the artsy projects I make him do. (ha. ha.)
And his favorite family night game is UNO.

Day 5

Apparently not, Kate.

Did you know Chris updated his blog?
Yup! Go check it out!

Day 4

Chris is definitely the head of our family.
And what an interesting head it is!

Day 3

Here's more good daddy shots of Chris. Well, all except the phone book thing. That just shows how vercitle Chris is :)
Chris' favorite birthday dessert is Jell-o cake. When he first told me that, I pictured a mound of Jell-o in a beehive shaped dome.
I thought he was crazy. Since then, I have learned that Jell-o cake is a yellow cake cooked, then punctured with a fork. Then, you make RASPBERRY Jel-o--it has to be RASPBERRY, no other flavor will do. While it's still in liquid form, (one of my friends thought the fork holes were for shoving set pieces of jell-o into the cake) pour it over the cake. Then, put it in the fridge, then mix up some pistachio instant pudding and mix some cool whip into it. That's the topping. I usually have tons of topping left over, so I just put it in cups for Chris to enjoy all week. And voila! There you have it! Jell-o cake.
Those of you far away should make some next week in honor of Chris' birthday.
IN OTHER NEWS. . . Elle is sick today with a fever. She even urped twice after drinking some water :( We're taking it easy today.

A week of Chris day 2

With Chris on the couch, you can get a better idea of its size.
Don't you just love how Chris is showing off his new Christmas p.j.'s and scarf?
And then, you can also see what a great guitar hero he is :)
And you can see how much he loves his wife and little girl and Tiki head tissue dispenser.

A week of Chris day 1

Chris' birthday is in one week. So, I thought I'd dedicate the next week of blog to him.
You'll notice how good he is to Elle by playing x-box with her, riding in the teapot with her, shooting Zurg with her, dressing up for Halloween with her, and reading to her. Aw! What a good dad.
And if any of you out there have great picturs of Chris, or good stories of him, be sure to share!
MY all time favorite story of Chris is when we were first married. One night, he rolled over and gave me a big hug then said, "Maybe if we format it, it'll be alright."

Sunday hair and dress 2-2-08

For the past couple weeks, there have been cases of lice at Elle's school.
We weren't affected (thank goodness).
As a preventative, I have been putting Elle's hair up every day to protect her from it.
So, today, when I wanted to fix her hair all cute for church, she said she wanted to have it down since she's had to have it up all week.
