5 on Friday

1. Friday night we had my work Holiday Party.   It just so happens the party is about a mile away from my sister's house, so we dropped the girls off on our way and picked them up afterwards.  Worked out great and we got back to Megan's to find both girls asleep in their bed/pack n play.

2. To return the favor, we watched our nephew/Godson on Saturday night while my sister & brother-in-law went to a work Holiday Party near us.   We had heard that Liam had been a little fussy for babysitters lately so we were ready for a more difficult night.   Of course Liam knew he was with his Godparents and was a perfect angel.  Seriously, the kid cried for maybe 3 minutes total the entire night (that includes going to bed).   I thought that was pretty good for a just under 1 1/2 year old.

3. Our friends, The Beltman's, came over for dinner on Sunday.  Watching Sophia and Ellie run around together was rather funny.  Although they are 1 1/2 years different in age, they play together really well.  

4.  Ellie got sick to her stomach on Tuesday night.   It was the first time she got sick like that when she was able to sort of comprehend what was happening.  She did a great job and made the clean-up really easy on Mommy.   The next morning she was back to her normal self and spent the day playing with Daddy at home.

5. Let it snow, let it snow, let is snow!  Nick was up bright and early yesterday clearing the snow.  I was so proud of him for all of his hard work (and it was hard work).  We made it to work and day-care with the girls in decent time (20 minutes vs. the usual 10 minutes).   Of course there was hardly anyone where and the building closed at 3:00 PM.  At least we made an appearance and the drive was not too bad.  Side note: Out of 125 kids at day-care, Ellie and Neve were 2 of the 20 that showed up.
