Vinny is awesome and I'm a douche
Vinny was an excellent Secret Santa, and her present arrived last week, but I've been too caught up with my in-laws' visit to post pics.
First was a card, complete with artwork from Andy. Hopefully Andy will become a famous painter so I can say I have a precious original.
Next was a tin of delicious ginger cookies, with instructions for making a wish. It's like a genie you can eat!
The treats continued with Eclipse candy--Cullen Family Edition!
Vinny also got me some tasty berry lip balm. I attempted to capture a photo of myself applying the balm in a sensual manner. I did not succeed.
Jenny was embarrassed for both of us at this point.
Last but not least, my present included a Miracle Blanket for James!
The good news is that we have been using it frequently. The bad news is, it usually gets pee on it, so I haven't been able to capture a picture of it in use. Please accept this picture from the instructions as a substitute.
FOR THE LOVE OF GOD, THE BLANKET MUST BE PULLED SNUG.
Thanks, Vinny! Merry late Christmas.

1. Good haul.
B. I see you've been taking photography lessons from Fitty "Painter of Dark" McSeba.
Alfalfa juice. Did I miss a birthing story somewhere? Maybe it was in one of the Kindle posts. Congratulations.

Sometimes I wonder if scientists have never seen a sci-fi movie before. "Oh yes, let's create a super species of deer. NOTHING COULD POSSIBLY GO WRONG." I wonder if State Farm offers a Zombie Deer Attack policy. -CaliopeSpidrman
Yay! I'm glad you liked the stuff, and I'm glad you got it. I had my H send the box and I started to get the sneaking suspicion that he was too embarrassed to send something to HappyTummy (would you believe that I don't know your real name...I considered sending it to Fern, but seeing as how I don't actually know that inside joke, it didn't seem appropriate).
Regarding the MB, we got ours as a hammidown, so no helpful instructions. We went a couple of days trying to figure it out, until I decided to watch the video online. That video is kind of scary and looks a wee bit too violent for a newborn baby. However, trust. It was wonderful and kept the kid from scratching his face off.
Happy New Year to you and your brand spanking new family!
I was going to post this exact thing, word for word. Stripey pants!
I want to eat wishes.
Husbands should be like Kleenex: Soft, strong, and disposable.
Sweet haul! That lip gloss is extremely sensual looking.
Nice job, Vinny!
