Well, it's been 3 days...I have totally been cheating for the last 3 days too. I'm totally feeling it in my jaw too ugh! I have been taking the bands off and eating soft foods throughout Christmas. It's sore...but I'm surviving. Can't really complain too much as I did it to myself. But! Back to the liquids as of tomorrow...Need to heal so I can get this crap out of my mouth as soon as possible!

Christmas eve was fun! Went to my dad's side and all went well.

Christmas was BUSY! Had our Christmas with our kids...they scored from Santa Clause! After that went to the mother in laws. They are vegan and did mexican food. Tamales. Pretty good! After that we went to my mom's side. Had fun! lots of food and mingling. Overall awesome holiday season!

Today we went to blow our earnings! The kids got to spend their Christmas loot and we could have, but haven't yet hehe. Kyle got a DS for Christmas...it was used cause we wanted to see how he would treat it before spending the dough on a DSi. Went and picked up a bunch of games from pawn shops, game stores and craigslist for him...he ended up with 20 games! Also...while we were trading one of the games at the game store that didn't work, there was a lady in front of me that was trying to trade in a DSi and they only wanted to give her a tiny bit for it. I asked her what she wanted for it and ended up getting it for Kyle! So he ended up with his DSi anyway! Brand new, even!!! Came with screen protectors (one of which he ruined before it even got put on) and all sorts of fun accessories. and 2 of the 20 games he ended up with! Exciting day for him =)

Afterwards, we took Carrie to Walmart and let her spend her loot. She got LOTS more toys...and totally had fun having mommy/daughter time while Kyle was getting a hair cut with daddy. I think I had more fun watching her than she actually had picking out the toys lol.

I had fun this week...and survived all the mouth pain! 2 1/2 more weeks! I can do this!
