The holidays, the new year

Christmas was lovely... really lovely... one of those times when the food turns out right, the presents are perfect and the family time is nice... really nice... K loved Santas deliveries... her favorite was the princess dress and more dolly accessories... her requests are still super simple.. it is just the amount... lots to open is more critical... so we refilled her wardrobe and got her more toys... and C got more toys... and more toys. The girl loves toys... I mean really loves toys. It was an exhausting day and I think the whole family was in bed by 9. Planning xmas and wrapping, shopping, cooking and baking... well can make you pretty tired. Especially if you need to pull it together in 3 days because you spent the previous 11 relaxing in Hawaii... and the 70 days before that taking classes... no complaints really!

The week after was nice.. I finally got comfortable watching both girls at the same time... It made me quite nervous for quite a while... now I am accepting there are times when both girls will cry at the same time and they may even be unhappy at the same time... you just have to do the best you can at making them happy for well most of the time... Mostly we had playdates, local adventures and more playing.. Somehow the time flew without our standard adventures like the city etc... That is a theme for 09... where did the time go...

C continues to be our eater... she is also mobile, but only by rolling... makes it difficult to leave her anywhere. She is comfy on all fours but has no interest in moving... lots of interest in holding hands and walking... We don't call her Clone for no reason... she is her big sis... She continues to be a horrible sleeper. We are up 3-5 times a night... We could do without that piece... she seems to love to nurse during the night and hate it during the day... the day is for looking and playing and exploring. So sleep deprived!

NYE was really nice. We had friends over... they stayed till 2:30 and we ended up at their house for breakfast the next day. K stayed at Gmas and loved her own NYE treat... She loves loves sleepovers.

And now 2010!!!!
