It was really cold this weekend, so we did not do much but hang around inside. Chris and I are ready for Alivia to get some new toys…we are bored with her current ones! Alivia has found one new toy (her indoor slide) and has asked to “play on the slide please.” We are just ignoring her. Alivia talks a lot about Santa, but we are trying to focus on the true meaning of the season through books and Bible stories. On Saturday we attempted to get a family picture taken for our Christmas card after previous attempts had failed. Well, this time failed, too. Seriously, trying to take a picture with a remote sounds easy enough until you include two little girls in the picture! Alivia and I did a little baking, but nothing too major. She likes baking because she eats some of almost every ingredient…including the flour! Addison, after waking up a few times during the night during the week, has gone back to sleeping through the night this weekend. I do not think she likes the bottle much. Addison, like her sister, is quite vocal – squealing a lot. It is so cute. She has started to sit alone for a short period of time.
Chris treated me with a pizza dinner and movies this weekend. We had not rented movies in so long. It was a fun to do something other than laundry after the kids went to bed (and fun having them actually go to bed now without difficulty!)
I hope to complete the Christmas shopping this week. I just have a couple people to buy for, including CHRIS! (Oops, have yet to start on him yet!). I have one last preschool tour, too. I just do not want to make the wrong choice, but Topher keeps reminding me that it is preschool, not college. Next weekend we are going to a live animal Christmas program at Westside Church. We are looking forward to seeing part of that, assuming that one of the girls will want to leave before it is over.
Have a great week!
