Brennen's Blusterings re: Christmas

Technically, Brennen has declined the honor of blogging this week, since his mean mommy won't let him blog "all by [him]self," as "the other boys got to." When mommy asked him if he could spell or type, he suggested that mommy point out each and every key he should press for each letter he wanted to write. Sadly, his mother is not that cool. Or patient. Or nice.

Good thing mommy had planned for a series of pictures, anyway.

Wow! We have so many presents! And they're so big!!

This Christmas was a How to Train Your Dragon theme. Sans DVD. We saw it in 3D Imax (thanks Grandma Ambrose!), but haven't purchased the DVD yet. Maybe next Christmas....

Dragon Wars 2010. Connor isn't doing so hot.

Ah.....

Brennen says: Merry Christmas!

Connor Cogitates

This week Brennen got better and goes to school and got to learn in school. Mom got better also.  And we are all out of school for two weeks on Christmas vacation. We'll be playing video games, and cutting our hair, and we went out to play in the snow yesterday. I want to play more snowball fights out in the snow. I hope to get good presents for Christmas and I want them to be fun, too.

Mom's disclaimer: grammar and sentence structure is all Connor's. I suggested a few changes, but it's mostly all him.

Introducing: Blogging Boys

Note: since Mom is so horrible at regular blogging, the boys are taking over. The plan is to have one of us blog every Sunday. Maybe we'll let Mom blog once in a while....

David:
Brennen and mommy have been sick this week,and Brennen has to stay home from school because he has a bad ear infection and a sinus infection also. So he has to take a lot of medicines.Mommy had a big bump on the back of  her neck so she had to go to the doctor. Connor said his ear was hurting yesterday before a birthday party yesterday so he stayed instead of going, so far everybody else is fine.

Mom's notes:
The big bump is a swollen lymph node. I'm on antibiotics. Brennen has missed two full weeks of school, but is finally also on antibiotics--we have high hopes he can return to school tomorrow....

Privatizing...

Hey, all--I know I never update the family blog, but I'm going to try to get better at that and post something once a week or once a month or so. A schedule seems to be needed, here.

Meanwhile, I'm starting up a bit of a web presence on my writer's blog http://www.robinweeks.blogspot.com/, so I'll be making this blog private next week, on December 11 (or so).

If you want to be on the exclusive invite list, please leave a comment or shoot me an email. You will thereafter need a google account (or other similar account) to access the blog. They're free--if you don't have one already, repent. :)
