Because I got Norwalk virus or some other similar bug for xmas this year:( I’m just recovering today. The last couple of days are a big blur of things you don’t want to hear about;) Fortunately the kids went to their Dad and to the grandparents so I could suffer without worrying about them.

I’m feeling much better today though and overall Christmas was great. Alec was up at 4:45 and I had to send him back to bed a couple of times before we all got up at 7:30. The kids were thrilled with their gifts and so far not altogether a surprise, we’ve already lost lego pieces, used up all of the crayola colour explosion solution bottles, and broken an xmod remote control antenna, sigh.

And if you didn’t get any this year, you should check them out. The Crainium family games are a lot of fun. We’ve got both Cranium Cadoo and Cranium Hullabaloo and we’re having a blast with them.
