Let me Skype the ways...

It was a great treat to be able to skype with the family last night. While my netbook was charging, I was able to use my iphone to talk and stream video of Zoey and I in the meantime. I loved hearing my nieces and nephews say 'awwww' with all of Zoeys cute smiles and antics. My phone has always been a great way to keep in touch with everyone and it's cool to see it connect us that much better and not be just a toy that I check my Facebook on and try and beat my high score on Angry Birds.
Zoey was an angel last night, and today, and was able to skype with Steph so she could see lil ju before she left for work. Usually we're trying to get Zozo to say something while on the phone, but that never works. The video ability bridges the gap and lets her cute little smile be shared. Ok, I'm done shamelessly plugging skype and the iphone.

Zoeys 1st Christmas

Christmas could not have gone better this year. I awoke to the adorable smile of Zoey and some Baileys Caramel woke my coffee up. Stockings stuffed with giftcards, scotch-mallows, and beef jerkey set the stage for the mountain of presents to be opened. The barely visable floor became the home to the numerous presents for Zoey that lit-up, laughed, clicked, and spoke. The pile of clothes she received grew and grew as she became more and more sleepy. Her excitement was usurped by her sleepy eyes.

An extremely nice jacket/hoodie found it's way into my pile as well as an amazing HP netbook, which I'm typing this blog upon. Breakfast was made and wine poured. The football game was exciting even though I could care less about the teams. Round ice balls were surrounded by scotch and the mattress called while Steph played vinyl on her new record player.

It was truely a great experience watching Zoey open and enjoy her gifts on Christmas morning and I look forward to many many more.
