Life

Life...does it ever slow down? I have a feeling now that we have the house, there will always be a project to do in our spare time:) I can't even begin to describe how nice it feels to have a nice home to lay my head down at night. We found a steal of a deal on a formal dining room set off Craigslist. I am always giddy when I find a great deal! In addition, Aaron bought me a new comforter set from Macy's for Christmas but since he can never wait to give me my gifts...well, that and because I got to pick it out, he gave it to me early.
Liv has been giggling for a few weeks now. I LOVE that we can entertain her. The first time she laughed for me was when Cece and I were sitting on the couch with Liv on my lap, we were laughing about something not having to do with Liv at all, suddenly Olivia starts joining in on our laughter! Ha! So stinking cute. Little Liv love is still nursing like a champ. Breastfeeding is so rewarding. Not only am I giving Liv all the nutrition she needs and nothing she doesn't by nursing, I'm also saving our household a TON of money on formula costs. As far as solids have gone, Liv has tried just a few...Bananas, apple sauce, sweet potatoes, and rice cereal. One night before I went to work, I asked Aaron if he could feed Liv some rice cereal...a short time later, I received a picture message of a picture of Olivia slurping the cereal up instead of eating it with a spoon....Leave it up to a man to figure out an easier, simpler way to do things
Every week the pile of presents under the tree grows and Cecelia so enjoys sitting by the tree, picking up each present with her name written on it and shaking it while trying to determine what it could possibly be. So cute! Aaron did let her open an early present though...he let her open up the new Madagascar racing game and accompanying steering wheels. She is trying to practice up because she knows when Kiley comes into town she's going to have some serious competition! Lately Cecelia has been obsessed with school. Like getting there super early so she can start her work, and reading for 20-40 mins. EVERY day and not missing A SINGLE DAY!
Since becoming a peer coach she has to do her work and get it done quickly enough that she can help others with their homework, so she feels the need to constantly stay ahead of things (sounds just like me!)
Loving life:) I thank God for all my blessings:)
