The Grinch

This is the latest picture of Dave. I took it just after he said (in the car today on the way home from buying himself a new white t-shirt for working out):

"Do we have to get a Sapin de Nöel?"

I replied, "We have to have a tree. When I was a kid, one year we got our tree on Christmas EVE!"

"Well, we're not doing that," he said flatly.

I declared, "Okay, then we're getting one tomorrow because the kids don't have school."

"Fine," he replied, "but it has to be a small one."

It's not a male thing, I think it's an Ashton offspring thing. (I say offspring because my mom was always so good about decorating)

We still don't have a Christmas tree and I asked Will and Juliette the other day if they cared about getting one at all. Of course they do, so I suppose we'll have to do it.

But to spend money on something that you're just going to throw away, and the mess they make, etc. etc. I suppose I'm feeling a little grinchy myself, probably because I'm the size of the grinch's house right now, and doing anything at all this stage of pregnancy doesn't really appeal to me!

So in Dave's defense, I've got a little of the grinch spirit too and I'm a female!
