Happy Birthday, Peter!!!

Tomorrow is Peter's birthday. Happy Birthday, Boo! Tomorrow the girls are going to Vacherie to spend a few days with Momma Lady and Grandpa since B is on vacation for a week. I'm going to miss them, but Peter and I are psyched about having a few nights to ourselves! Thanks in advance to Momma Lady and Grandpa.

I always feel guilty for not keeping up with the blog, but on weeknights I am awake for aboutan hour after we put the girls down. I want to do better...

A big thank you to Attie for watching the girls a couple of weeks ago when Ida caused the schools to close for the day. I know it was rough!

I was lucky enough to be off on Veteran's Day and I took B for her follow up appointment with Dr. Warren. He said that everything looked good so she'll probably get the hardware taken out next fall. It's going to be a quick and easy procedure. She'll have the surgery on a Friday and be back to school on Monday. I thought it was going to be more involved than that so I am relieved. Before her appointment B and I had lunch at Slice. I can't remember the last time she and I went to a restaurant just the two of us; it was fun to spend time with my favorite three year old.

Last weekend we went to the Aquarium and to Maspero's with the Nichols family. The girls were so excited to see their cousins. The night before we went B told me that Charlie was "so cute" and "so special." She also recently told my sisters that she hoped that one day when Charlie got bigger he could be her big brother. Sadie and Patrick liked staring at each other and Patrick called Sadie "baby" all day.


This morning B had an Open Studio at her ballet school. She did so well and was quite the ham! I was so proud. It was a gray, rainy day--the perfect day to hang out in the playroom. In the afternoon B and I went to Jonah's first birthday party. He was adorable and the cake was delish! Sadie couldn't go because she wasn't feeling well. I took her to see Uncle Tommy yesterday for her 18 month check up, and we found out she had an ear infection. My girls have had runny noses for months. Sadie's last ear infection was less than a month ago. Everyone says they'll have awesome immune systems later. We'll see.

Sadie loves to say the following: deah (yes), NO (used to be nuh), cheese, hug (then she gives a hug), beddy button (my girl loves her navel), and we've taught her to say "Who Dat!"

B's art projects and the songs she learns at school are amazing. I recorded her singing "The Month of November"--adorable. Both girls are picky eaters these days, and it seems like anytime I cook anything for her she wants "sumpin' else." When she doesn't want to do something she says, "Stop it, stop it, stop it!!!"

I'm going to post more pics soon.
