Christmas!

It was tons of fun. The girls had a great time (especially Hannah). Hannah got some really fun new toys and dress up stuff. She also got a new baby which she named Dexi (not sure where she came up with that). This was her first year where she really understood everything and it was so exciting for her. We were up all night with Layla (and I mean literally ALL NIGHT) Christmas eve, but we were rejuvinated by Hannah in the morning. It is hard to be tired when your little ones are so happy.

In other big news - Hannah is potty trained! She did awesome. It was basically two days of lots of accidents, but then - she got it. She has had one or two accidents all week, so that is a success to me. She got all new big girl pants and a new movie for doing so good. My big girl.

Layla's RSV has resolved and she is doing well. Her sleep went to pot when she was sick (as if she was ever a good sleeper) so that is no fun. We are working on sleep training this month. We took her our of her swaddle (yes - my giant 7 month old was still swaddled) and she is learning to sleep in her crib. It is going to be a long month, but in the end we should have a better sleeper. She weighed in at 18lbs 12 oz last week at her RSV check :) So she didn't waste away to nothing during her illness.

It was nice to be home for 10 days with the girls. We had lots of fun and good playtime. Now we are looking forward to our weekend away just Mom and Dad. In 48 hours I will be on my way to Key West to meet Matt (who is already there on "business"). Yay for mommy!
