Getting ready for Christmas...

I can't believe Christmas is 3 days away.  Most of the presents are wrapped and just have a couple more things to get.  Lily and Marley got gifts from Brians brother Mike and his wife Veronika.  We figured we would let Lily open them early since she would have so much other stuff on Christmas.  Lily got a baby doll, some books, bath tub crayons, and a puzzle.  She LOVES the baby doll.  Marley got some new clothes and some fuzzy boots.  A big thank you to them!!!

Lily went to Papa Mikes last Saturday to make cookies with Taylor.  Lily ended up spending the day at Aunt Teresas then Taylor took her to a basketball game that evening.  She had a blast...I was hoping for a much needed break but Marley had other plans for me.  She was fussy most of the day and didn't nap much until late afternoon.  Oh well...

Lily has been busy watching all kinds of Christmas specials.  The television has been keeping her occupied while I tend to Marley.  It will be nice come spring time when we can get Lily a play set outside to burn off some energy. 

Tuesday Marley was 6 weeks old.  She is getting so much bigger.  I'm going to miss it when she no longer curls up in a ball on my chest and falls asleep.  Monday night she slept 8 hours straight and Tuesday night she slept 7 1/2.  I'm just crossing my fingers hoping this trend continues.  She naps in her crib morning and afternoon too!

 Funny thing about the pj's.  When Brian put them on her the night before she kept telling him they were too small...we tried to explain to her that is the way they are supposed to be.
