Tony was gone on Wednesday night and I was home with the kids. I put Kaleb down 30 minutes early and then told Kaiya we were going to have a girls night. She had no idea what this meant, but she was excited. :) Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer was on TV and so we put on our pajamas and slippers and made some hot chocolate - er... hot goat's milk chocolate. Somewhere along the way I began collecting Disney mugs. Disney made these mugs for about 5-7 years and then stopped. I managed to get probably 20 or so different ones. Whatever movie they are for wraps completely around the mug. They are cute -- but I never have good reason to pull out 20 mugs and use them. So I pulled out the box, which Kaiya had never seen, and let her pick one out to use. She went bezerk. It took her a few minutes to decide, but she settled on Aladdin.
We made a half mug of warm goat's milk w/ Trader Joe's sipping chocolate (which is quite excellent for those of you near one) mixed in. Plunked in a few marshmallows and she was ready to try hot chocolate. And pose for a few pictures...


She liked Rudolph and said several times throughout it, "I like dis moobie." And just about every 5 minutes, "What his name? What her name?" She's obsessed with knowing all the characters names.
It was a sweet memory -- one we'll probably repeat later this week when Frosty is on. Oh -- and if you are wondering about the goat's milk, feel free to ask in the comments... I figured some people would wonder, but didn't want to get lengthy here. :)
