Well, hello there! It has officially been way too long since I've posted, but what else is new? Although I do have a good excuse this time...really, I promise!
I am 18 weeks pregnant and finally feeling well enough to do some things other than sleep or have my head over a toilet. It's great to feel a bit like my old self again, except for the huge belly that I am sporting now. How quickly your body remembers!
It has been a hectic Fall for us - the girls are both still enjoying school, although Lola has figured out that 1st grade isn't quite as much fun as kindergarten (I don't get to play as much, momma!). Lola is taking ballet again, which she just loves. We started Bella on ballet also, but she did not enjoy it as much. I think she needs something a bit more active, so we will try tumbling at the first of the year.
My sister visited us over Halloween. Unfortunately I was tired and in the middle of morning sickness while she was here, so it may not have been as much fun for her, but it was a great help to me. The girls really enjoyed her visit, as did I and we miss her much.
Lola has lost her two top teeth, and one of them is almost completely grown back in. Wow, what a change! Now she has three other teeth that are wiggly.
Bella is starting to read - I know Lola was starting to read at this age, too, but it feels as if the girls are growing up so fast!
It's hard to believe Christmas is upon us! I haven't done much decorating around the house, although I did find a really cute advent calendar with Olive the other reindeer (a really cute book about a dog that wants to be a reindeer) that has a pop up house and each day a new paper figurine to add.
We got to visit Santa twice! Once at Kaz' work party and again at the Nutcracker with their grandma. The Nutcracker was a lot of fun for all of us, and it was just so great to see the amazement in Bella's eyes as she saw the ballerinas for the 1st time.
that stylin' kid
After having a bit of an accident this past week, all is well in our household, with no major (permanent!) damage to Bella thankfully. Truly, if anyone can pass off a missing top tooth for a couple years with style, it's her!
first day of school
Well, the girls are into their second week of school. They are both enjoying it a lot, although when I asked Lola how her day went yesterday, she replied -
'It was boring!'
'How come?' I asked.
'All we did was work!'
I guess the first few days of taking it easy are over!
