Guess Who Rocks and Guess Who Is the Asshole

Hint: Stimey is ALWAYS the asshole.

Remember how we weren't getting a lot of extras this year because of unexpected expenses? Well, it turns out that this means that Stimey buys this for Alex for Christmas:

Yeah, that's a Boba Fett mug.

And Alex got bought this for Stimey:

Although I could have done without the effect of my little
Mii character ballooning to a larger size after
the system calculated my BMI.

Oh, and do you see how the second photo is way better than the first? That's because he also got me a kick-ass camera. So our check to our educational consultant may bounce, but I'll be able to take fantastic photos of us on our way into bankruptcy court.

Okay, it's not as bad as all that. Turns out that Alex had his own middle of the night fund and he used that to buy stuff for me.

Let me take this opportunity to remind you of something:

In other news, this was Jack's favorite gift:

No, not the Lego table, but the Lego R2D2 that
came with a watch my sister gave him.

I Santa finally broke down and got the little dudes guns laser blasters.

Charlie's Angels, here he comes!

And Quinn actually lived on the island of Sodor for today. It was all Thomas the Tank Engine, all the time.

Well, there was some chocolate too.

*****

And a Merry Christmas was had by all. Everyone is happy and stuffed with food and clad in new jammies.

I hope you had a good day too.
Even if—especially if—your day consisted
of Chinese food and a movie.

Whooo hooo for kick ass cameras! Can I come over and do the Wii Fit?

Joeymom said...

Yeah, my hubby got me new pots and pans, AND an iPod. I got him a gadget thing using the points from my credit card (ie, it was a kick-ass gadget, but I got it for "free").

Moosie would kill for that mug, we have the boba/jengo fett (I can't tell the difference) bobble head, statue, costume, action figure... Our family got a wii, and I couldn't believe how much exercise I got with just the boxing. I am drooling for guitar hero world tour. Love the last picture of the boys!!

BetteJo said...

I try never to make that deal - "we won't buy each other anything (or anything big)" because somebody always goes back on it. But look at the cool stuff you got! Woo hoo!

Love the pics - looks like the boys are all happy - and fun was had by all. And the pic of you with the WII Fit? You look like an ADORABLE asshole, so don't fret! :)

Wow, a husband who makes thanksgiving dinner and has a secret fund just for wife presents! He's a keeper!!

Merry Christmas to team Stimey!

*m* said...

My kids would think Alex got the awesome gift. (What is it about Boba Fett?)

And that Lego table really rocks.

Happy boxing day or whatever the hell it is.

Looks like a great Christmas was had by all!

slouching mom said...

I got a Wii Fit too! And was pretty discouraged to have my "fit" age calculated as 52 years old.

I suck!

But you don't suck. And you have a thoughtful husband, too.

Merry Christmas, Stimey.

Niksmom said...

ROFLMAO! Yeah, we did that too; never again. But you LOOK great and that's what counts, right? ;-)

Gladd it was a kick-ass day! :-)

Manic Mommy said...

Bastard! Same deal here. We were considering the new DR table our gift to each other. I bought him cologne and an audio book. He bought me:

Earrings
New jammies
Expensive sunglasses
A gorgeous new robe

Um? Thanks?

Stimey, there was a helicopter circling my house with a searchlight last night and I thought about you! ;) Glad you had a great Christmas, and I covet your Wii fit!

Mama Bub said...

I'm avoiding using the Wii Fit JUST to escape seeing the Mii explode off of the screen. I'm more than a little worried.

Momma Hu said...

Happy Holidays! Looks like our husbands think alike. I received the same gift from mine. Now, I just have to make the time to actually use the Wii Fit.

Looks like the kids really enjoyed x-mas!

Kelley said...

MPS is the arsehole here.

As always.

I mean DUUUUUUUUUUUDE do you even know me at ALL?

Sheesh.

I would have totally loved that Boba Fett mug babe.

Hope you had a wonderful Christmas

Magpie said...

Your husband rocks. (Well, you do too, but - I'm feeling jealous because my husband is a lame ass who better pull through with my impending birthday...)

Happy new year!

whymommy said...

The Wii Fit so rocks, Stimey. Now practice up, cause we are so gonna be fit (or at least our miis will be) in the new year.

Merry Christmas!

How about room service pizza and sparkling wine? It was the perfect Christmas dinner (for this Christmas). For those totally clueless, what is Boba Fett? YM

Jenni said...

But, you know what? Alex looks positively thrilled with his mug, so I think you both rock, at least a little.

Happy Christmas, Team Stimey!
