It's Always the Season for Nightmares

I'm frantically attempting to close out this quarter as mentioned in the previous post, but I simply had to share a great present we received yesterday. My brother, sister-in-law and my nephew all headed off to Disneyland recently and they brought home presents for all four of us. Like any good former goth kid, I absolutely adore the movie Nightmare Before Christmas and that was the theme of my birthday package to be shared with all.


For me, a set of Jack Skellington mouse ears. For Amanda, a fantastic Nightmare-themed bag that I see as the perfect diaper bag companion to the two awesome, matching onesie/bottom sets for the boys. If you haven't gone nuts over those onsies yet, it must be because you haven't taken a close enough look at them:


They're going to wear these things until they fall apart. So flippin' cute!

We've also received gifts from other family members (thanks, Dad & Sherlene & others!), all of which have been most welcome. I'm glad the shower is coming up soon, though; we're both beginning to feel the stress of the boys' impending arrival and we want to make sure we have all the things we need (and a good number of things we just plain want) prior to their grand entrance.
