| Getzoe.com Month 35 December 2001/January 2002 |
| Hi everyone. In case you haven't figured it out, that bulbous little creature to the left is my soon-to-be slave in waiting. The doctors say that we'll know if he/she is a boy or girl at the end of February and then the little gal/fella will be mine for good sometime around August 2nd. I can't wait. |
| OK, now back to the Zobo Chronicles, chapter 35. Aaah yes, Christmas 2001... |
| Our annual gift exchange was held at Trish & Milo's again this year. On the left, you'll see me feeding my new baby--the first and last gift I cared to open this year. And on the right, a standard pose with Hayley. |
| Here's my first getzoe.com pic of Josh Kahr--who is clearly the product of some sort of new age paternal cloning experiment for which Sean volunteered. |
| Here I am entertaining mom's family at Uncle Phan Phan's annual Christmas bash and egg roll eat-a-thon. I ran around like a crazed animal. |
| Hey, it's the same Santa that I met in 1999--how cool is that? Only for some reason, he has since had his chair re-done in a purple motif (very Christmasy, pal) and is now sporting a tech vest that he picked up at The North Pole Gap. |
| Santa asked me what I wanted for Christmas this year--and for the first time ever, I told him. I made it really simple for the old guy, and told him that I wanted "Santa, Snow White & some cookies". He laughed and told me that he wanted me under his tree--so mom & dad did their best to get me ready for his arrival. |
| The week before Christmas was jam-packed with all sorts of random acts of hijinx. Here I am swimming around in some packing popcorn (Dad not amused). |
| And here I am practicing my award-winning "What do you mean Santa missed my house?" look with my very own hot pink Lee Press-On Nails. |
| "You stick with me, freaky Potato Head boy. I know it's hard to believe but I'm pretty sure Santa's going to bring you a Potato Torso for Christmas." |
| Dad couldn't resist getting me a Zobo-sized tree this year, despite the obvious fire hazard and potential for ornament ingestion. Thanks, Pops!! |
| Then, finally, it was Christmas morning. Here I am logging in a few final snores before the big fella showed up in my living room. That's right, Santa came to my house and I even got to see him. He gave me some Snow White gifts and a special necklace. He promised me that if I wear the necklace on Christmas Eve, he'll come bring me presents on Christmas Day. I told him that I loved him and gave him a nice kiss before he squeezed his sizeable red belly into our chimney. Thank you for coming to my house Santa!! |
| My very favorite gift from Santa was a Snow White Makeup Table. Once I opened this gift I pretty much focused on making myself pretty all day. |
| Poor Snow White was stuck in a box for at least a couple of days, so obviously her hair was a mess. Luckily, I had a little mini brush to fix her up. |
| My other favorite gift was a little white kitty, who I named "Little Killy". She has proven to be quite a good snuggler and a great friend for "Killy Cat". |
| On the day after Christmas, Mommy had to go back to work. So Daddy and I went to catch the latest installment of "Disney on Ice" in 2nd row seats. My favorite part was with the giant skating elephants. |
| Then later that week, it was off to Phoenix to catch the Buffs in the Fiesta Bowl. Here I am unwinding at a rest stop (I never have time to read anymore). |
| Once we arrived, I embarked on never-ending string of Colorado-related events. Here I am looking quite fetching at the Gary Barnett Fiesta Bowl breakfast. |
| And here I am enjoying the New Year's Eve Fiesta Bowl party in downtown Tempe, complete with Mardis Gras beads and a face painting. Dad suggested I don the Buffs logo but I opted for the much more colorful, Barney. |
| On the day of the big game, Mom and I joined Daddy and Uncle "Dinkle" for the pre-game festivities. GM had some of their new cars there. |
| So, it seemed like a perfect opportunity to learn how to drive. "Look out people, the Zobo-mobile is coming through and I'm not stopping for anyone". |
| Well, that's all for chapter 35. But come back next month--I'll be capping off another great year on this little blue planet and you won't want to miss any of the action. Happy New Year everyone! Cheers- Zoe Jacobin |
