T'was the week before Christmas...

... when all through the house, not a creature was stirring - not even a mouse
except the mouse, and the keyboard and the bleary eyed blogger.

We wrapped up most of the kids' presents tonight.

Maggie's getting some Sesame Street toys. A noisy laughing Cookie Monster head on a stick (that sounds pretty morbid). And a little musical saxaphone. Both guaranteed to drive the parents crazy. They'll also serve as excellent bait to entice Lisa to snatch them off her.

Lisa will be receiving a dress-up bear with 4 different costumes. And a Teletubbies book.

And Bart... Tough call. Marge and I are still having talks about that one.
He showed us his Christmas wishlist this morning. It comprised of the following:

• Big castle (Lego)
• Game boy DS
• Invisible ink and special light
• Laptop (Computer)
• New Palm pilot (T3)

The laptop was a carry over demand from last year.

The Palm was a bit of a surprise. Last year he asked me whether he could have my T3 when I died. LOL! Maybe he's gotten tired of waiting. Though it looks like Marge will get the T3 when I get my TX. Bart will just have to be content with Marge's Tungsten E.

And the DS Dream may be over - even though I had my first go of Mario Kart DS at David Jones today. It was a lot of fun. But Marge is quite adamant that I am not to get one.
(Though she did hint that she might reconsider if I buy her a sewing machine. And bikes for the kids. And new curtains for the house. Doh!)

I guess I shouldn't be too disappointed.
Tomorrow I should be getting my Palm TX and also a Canon S2 IS digital camera. Woohoo!!!
