A Bundle of Myrrh

Today I spent more time than it should have taken finishing up a gift for another baby Hale (Phil’s brother’s child) due at the end of the month. With 2 little ones around an hour long project turned into a 6 hour marathon of cut, sew, feed, pin, sew, change diaper, sew, get Lily off of Clara, pin, sew, get juice, etc, etc.
With only one more week until Christmas I finally had “spare” time to put a few decorations in the girls’ room. Lily likes to play with the dolls that are up on this shelf while she’s being changed. Now she can play with little baby Jesus.

Bellow are the slippers and bib I made. Lindsay, if you’re reading this DON’T LOOK!

Potty All the Time!

December 15th, 2009 by Aubri

Houston, we got a poo-poo! Lily went in the potty for the first time today! We’ve been slowly introducing the potty for a couple months now, talking about it and what goes in it. Lily sits on it sometimes but produced nothing on it until today. Phil asked if she wanted to go potty, she signed “please” so he took her to it, sat her down and voila! We’re so proud!

Don’t worry this TP is clean.

>December Daily: Day 14

Phil and I treated ourselves to a day out. We braved the 8 degree temperature and some ice to get to Sioux City. We ran errands, ate lunch at El Gardin O’live and had Starbucks coffee at Barnes and Noble. A very nice break and since we’re done with our Christmas shopping it was good to not have to worry about getting too far into the hustle and bustle!
