Full of Love: Like his prayer

Today while shopping at a children's store Otto met this lady. She was a stranger and in less than five minutes he made a friend. She had a little girl his age and he was loving them.

When I sent my MIL the picture of her darling she reminded me he is full of love like his prayer.
"Full of Light, Love and Laughter, and Lead by the Lord".

Polar Express

My parents took Ollie to the Polar Express before Thanksgiving. He had the BEST time and was so excited when we told him where he was going. Seriously, I've never seen the kid more happy...maybe even happier than when Otto came home from the hospital. They had a great time and Paw did an excellent job documenting the entire trip for mom.

We also managed to squeeze in a date our friends ,Cory & Kelly, babysat for us after we left their son's birthday party. What great friends, thanks guys.

Entertain Me

My mother-in-law has some crazy nice and crazy rich friends in Houston that throw an amazing Christmas party. She has been to every party with video camera in tow to document the event. It continues to get bigger and bigger every year and this year I think Mark & Becky have out done themselves. This year the entertainer is wait for it Miley Cyrus. Seriously people Miley Cyrus! **I would like to note that every time I type Miley Cyrus I'm saying Hannah Botana in my head cuz that is what Ollie calls her** She is coming to their house for their Christmas party...she is performing in their backyard. How crazy is that and by the way I'm super excited.
When I heard her song See You Again I thought to self I wonder who this is and I think I like it. When I found out it was Hannah Botana I was surprised. I'd never watched her show and only knew of her dad. Sister is a secret fan and has confessed her love for Miley which was a good thing and I felt more comfortable and relaxed to know another adult liked her.
I just read/watched Twilight and now I'm admitting to liking Hannah Botana...I think I will have to post my more serious thoughts that I've only emailed to best friend Melissa.

Here is an article about the party. Did I mention I'm so so excited. I'm not a true fan but I do like her and anticipate an entertaining show. I've been listening to her songs because I'm afraid some tween is going to take me down at the concert for not singing every word along with them. Y'all know I'll try to get as close to the front as possible dragging my child with me. I watched the Hannah Montana/Miley Cyrus: Best of Both World Concert Tour this summer I know how serious these girls are and I am scared.

If you aren't familiar here she is folks.
