1. We rang in the New Year with fondue, Qwelf and good friends/family! Thanks to Mike and Megan for hosting us, and Scott for allowing Ellie to sleep in his room (at least until it hit midnight and I drove us back to our house). Yes, that is correct- I did stay awake past midnight. Ellie was in bed at her regular 7:30 bedtime (which meant a relaxing dinner for Mommy and Daddy!)
2. I loved having Monday off, Ellie was so much fun and it was great to have a day with nothing we had to do. We need more of those, and will have to start scheduling them in.
3. A few weeks ago we went to Jolly Holiday Lights with the Beltman Family. I kept on forgetting to mention it. We all packed into the Beltman's car--- it was pretty fun and I had never been before. My favorite part had to be Ellie and Sophia holding hands in their car seats. I think Ellie misses Sophia, because she has been asking for her multiple times a day for the past week. She wants Sophia to come over and color. I told her to have her Daddy talk to Sophia's Daddy and set up a time... Ellie's Daddy has yet to do that.
4. I took time on Monday to make some cards! I haven't taken time on my own to make cards in over a year. It was great, and my card stash is not looking so sad anymore.
5. Ellie is really loving her baby dolls right now. She pushed them around in the stroller and "goes shopping." Ask her where she is going and she will tell you the mall. Ask her what she bought when she returns and she will say a red shirt. For the record, I do not take Ellie to the mall that often. And I don't think I have ever bought her, or me, a red shirt. She also started requesting that Daddy go with her on these shopping adventures. I think she takes him because he has the wallet...
