2011

I have to say...I am a bit ashamed at my blogging schedule. Everytime I get a free second, I think to myself I am going to sit down and post. Wrong. Life hits and suddenly I have 2 kids and a house to take care of. Blogging seems to take a backseat. Well, the house is cleaned, lunches are made, both kids asleep, dinner packed up, showers done, newest bows ordered (wouldn't be me if I didn't include that) and it's only 8:00. Here's goes........

Julia is crazier than ever. I think when she turned two on the 22nd, a light switch flipped on and she went psycho!! She celebrated her 2nd bday in a sling. Ladybug fel off my bed

in the middle of the night and broke her collar bone. I still feel guilty about it. She still says her neck hurts every now and then. She goes in next week for her 2 year check up so I think I may have them x-ray it again. Julia starts swim lessons tommorrow through Four Seasons. Should be interesting. The best part is that I don't have to get in. WOOHOO!! I am still using the "I just had a baby but really I didn't" excuse for not fitting into my clothes. We aren't doing Kindermusik this semester. Figured I (and our checkbook) needed a little break. Allie will start up in the summer. So instead, she is doing gymnastics. Again, should be interesting.

Allie just turned 4 months last week. Time is going WAY too fast. She started sleeping through the nights around 7 weeks and hasn't turned back. Although she really doesn't "nap" during the day (I can sometimes get in a few good hours but its usually just a bunch of short ones), she goes to bed at 8:30 and will sleep till 8 the next morning. We have been blessed with great sleepers. Allie is growing like a weed. She is already in 6 month clothes. Never had that problem with Jules. Oh - she rolled over this past weekend!!!! Just more proof she is growing up. Like Jules, she goes next week for her next well baby. At the last, Dr. Rosa heard the heart murmur again. They are ordering another EKG so we'll keep you posted. We really aren't concerned - most people go with one that is undetected. We just have an overly careful doctor - which we are so grateful for.

Okay, I am going to try really hard to post more often. We will see. Enjoy some pics!

Happy (late) Holidays!

So tough after breaking her collar bone. You try and keep a 2 year old in a sling. Doesn't happen all that often.

Julia now believes the sole purpose of having Bailey is so she has something to sit on.

Allie loves to sit in her walker!
Seriously, she is always smiling!
