Goin' Places...(just not very far)

The girls and I are taking the week off...no running around, no going from here to there, just hanging out, spending time with each other. We needed a few days to recover from Seattle and get back onto a somewhat normal schedule. Moriah decided that since she wasn't able to go on the airplane trip with us, she would take a trip of her own...











Sister-in-law Amy has recently done a wonderful job blogging and I find myself eagerly checking her website daily for new pics, stories, etc. I thought I'd give it a go and try to keep you-all out there updated on the little daily happenings of our lives.

Today Moriah insisted that while I go into the other room she would "Get an eye on Madelyn". It took me a minute to realize she meant "Keep an eye on Maddie". She has also started using the phrase "Perfectly this" whenever things seem to be going well or as expected.

Yesterday Moriah and I spent the afternoon taking down Christmas decorations. It took a couple minutes to convince Moriah it was okay to put away all of the festive decor and that next year we would do it all over again. For the most part we did a great job working together, except when she started hanging the ornaments BACK on the tree. Even better, she sang Christmas carols the entire time.

Madelyn no longer likes to eat food from a spoon. My home-made-baby-food-making days were rather short lived. Yesterday she had tofu for the first time and seemed to like it...must be the Japanese in her=)
