Merry Christmas!!

Remember my last post when I said I was going to slow down and enjoy the moment? Well I didn't listen to myself-maybe after the Holidays. We just had three whirlwind Christmas's. All wonderful, full of dear family: cousins, Grandmas, Grandpas and even Greats, aunts, uncles, two preggies and a partridge in a pear tree!!!!!!!!!

The girls had a ball, you know, in between fits because of NO naps and fighting over toys that weren't even theirs (who knew they'd LOVE hot wheels??! Sorry Gabe:)-and ones that were. Their favorite part was still the wrapping paper, and standing ON the boxes, instead of figuring out what was in them. We are truly blessed, on the verge of spoiled. --By the way, it seems we have the Little People complete collection if anyone wants to do a playdate at our house!

On another note, lately it seems their language skills are developing, slowly but surely. I'll list their extensive-ha-vocabulary!...

oh boy

please
up
cheese (yes, cheese! Ask Grandma Wilson)
mamma-yep it's new
yah
Ollie
dad
NO
quack
moo

Ok now that I list them not so much new I guess, but they just act like they are right on the verge of really taking off with it. Grace especially will repeat sounds/words you ask her to, and she'll even try to sing along to the ABC's. Klaire doesn't like the ABC's too much, every time I start to sing them she's outta there. Maybe it's the fact that I am pretty tone deaf. Sorry kiddo's you're stuck with me!

Anyway, Merry Christmas to everyone. Now it's truly time to SLOW DOWN.
