If your wondering about the name Honey, this is my mother's new name for Parker and Harlowe. Parker was already calling my mother Honey for grandma, so now Dustin and I are trying to get Harlowe to catch on. Dustin's parents want to be called Nana and Pops, I am not sure about the Pops so I will have to clarify it later.
As you can see we are non-traditional people, my brother and Dustin loves Crab Legs so that's what our Christmas dinner consisted of. Seafood but the sides of a traditional Christmas, weird, I know but it was delicious. I know this sounds bratty but I hate to work for my food so Dustin was kind enough to share his crab with me. I can remember when I was younger we would go to fancy brunch buffets at various hotels in SA. I would always want my mother to peel the shrimp for me, and of course the great mother that she was, would do it. Dustin thinks I am totally spoiled, so I guess Harlowe's attitude is partially my fault. God is paying me back, ha.
Parker got a sled type thing and Harlowe is trying to help him open it. Don't ask me why she is naked, I guess you can see the type of parent I am. No foo foo dress and no big bow on her head, naked is the way to go, ha. But hopefully when she gets hair, I can slap a big bow on her head.
For Christmas we got a waffle maker, All Clad of course, I love, love, love this brand. I highly recommend their pots and pans. Anyway, we also got a Blue Ray for Harlowe's DVDs and a talking pot toy. Oh, and how can I forget the pink car, Fred's family gave Harlowe, which she totally loves.
This was Parker's first Krispy Kream (I know I am spelling this all wrong) and the first donut period and he was two and a half. These are the best donuts ever, especially when there hot. Oh my gosh they just melt in your mouth. Sadly to say Harlowe has probably been eating donuts since she was nine or ten months. It was funny, Dustin turned and asked me, should we be feeding Halowe donuts? Of course the cookie monster, me, said of course as long as that is not the only thing she wants to eat. Luckily she still loves her veggies and she is definitely a carnivore.
Yesterday, we had a nice dinner before I went to work. Dustin broke out his Kobe steak which he loves, I think more than me, ha. The steaks are not that big so my greedy husband did not want to share with Harlowe, because he made that mistake once and she practically ate the whole thing. So I fixed her up some veggie chicken fingers, yum, they really taste just like chicken. She was not having it, she just ate the ketchup and a few bites of the fingers. So Dustin gave her a few scraps and she was shoveling the steak in her mouth and pointing at his plate wanting more but no such luck, he ate it all. Our baby has some expensive taste so from now on I guess I will be buying both of them individual steaks, ha.
So much for just posting pics and not blogging. I want to wish everyone a Happy Easter and remember the true meaning of Easter. 1 Peter 1:3: Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ. According to His great mercy, He has given us a new birth into a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead.
