In the middle of the night...

I go walking in my sleep... from the mountains of faith to the rivers so deep...*Ahem* Sorry bout that... I got a little inspired by my posts title. Oh come on, you know you love Billy Joel... right?

So yeah its nearly 2am and I am pretty wide awake. Its all due to a nap I had around 7pm. I'm not really regretting it because I was exhausted and I did fall asleep in hubs arms while watching tv on the couch... aaaaah it was so blissful. This might be a little random but I have been funky lately... maybe its stress maybe its just my body being weird, who knows... all I know is I definitely have to go back in to see my doctor after we come back from Christmas vacation. Mother nature still hasn't shown up yet, which normally I would be head over heels estatic about but there are two problems with that... 1.) is I haven't had that crazy lunatic mother nature show up since mid October. And 2.) I have taken 2 tests with BFN's (Big Fat Negative's) :P
Now here's the big BUUUUUUUUUTTTT... I feel funky... I am exhausted everyday usually around 7'ish. The "girls" and I hope you know to which two I'm referring to have been full, perky, and exxxxxxxtreamly sensitive, like were talking I can't even put a sports bra on without being in pain. My nose is on high alert, were at the point where I cant even take out the trash without wanting to barf. Now, this is not a real big concern to me because believe it or not I get this way when I PMS only I normally crave chocolate like a fat kid at fat camp and have cramps along with all these other things. And again, but... this time there is no chocolate cravings, no cramping, no moodiness... just this funkiness. What can I make of it?... Not a damn clue... I almost wish I could get an appointment with the doc before we leave, but I know for sure that's next to impossible. Any of you care to guesstimate whats going on? Ever feel like this before and been pregnant? Ever get 2 negative results and still been pregnant (is that even possible?) ? Yeah, I know... WTF! but you gotta admit its weird. I do realize that I can make myself feel this way by wanting it so badly but in all honesty I don't think that is the case this time, I respectively will not complain when I am pregnant but I do NOT wish for nipple pain, like I have now... yeah its that bad! LOL!

In other news the munchkin had a GREAT birthday, in fact we partied it up, pretty much all weekend! I'll do a big post on that sometime soon, its just been nuts the past few days getting ready for our big haul down to Florida on Thursday.

I also took the big camera back out and did some more bokeh shots... this one I like in particular...
Mmmmm. Don't you just love cuppy cakes?! Ok that is all... nannoo nannoo I'm out like mork!

Christmas in the Park and a little Christmas Photography Fun

Last night we took the munchkin to the base to see "Christmas in the Park". Its a light display that the base does at the marina every year. They serve free hot dogs, and hot chocolate and candy. There is free raffles and door prizes. Santa comes to visit and you can take pictures with him as well. We even got a free dvd from him this year, which was Bridge to Terabithia. I had never seen it up until last night and let me just say at the end I was crying like a baby... now I wanna read the book. So here's a few pics from the nights festivities.

Forget the sleigh, Santa came riding in on a fire truck!

Santa and the munchkin are both sporting the "high waters" this season LOL!

And after we came home I decided I wanted to get a little creative with the Christmas tree and practice my Bokeh Photography skills. I looooooove Bokeh photos, they are just look so pretty to me. What is Bokeh? Pronounced Bou-Kei is the aesthetic quality of blur in an out of focus area of an image, its the way the lens renders out of focus points of light. You can also deliberately make bokeh by shallow focus techniques to create images with prominent out of focus regions.
The term comes from the Japanese word Boke, which means blur or haze.

Here's my practice Bokeh... hope you like it. :)
