January 2012

We celebrated the New Year with just the kids and I. Randle had to work New Years Eve this year. Jesse and I went back and forth going outside and lighting fireworks. The girls, they were in bed by 9 and slept until midnight. So they got to celebrate the new year with us. In scouts with Jesse, we have built a bird house, and worked on his Tiger Cub badge. In February he will have earned it and moved up to the Wolf. He is loving it. I have joined a Bunco group, which this was our first month. It was really nice having someone sit with the kids so I could go do something without all of them attached to me. The girls are sitting up like pros and rolling everywhere they want to go. They scoot in a circle on their bum to play with toys. I have a feeling crawling is not far away. They are so smiley and happy girls. On January 28th they had their ear tube surgery at Primary Children's Medical Center. We were supposed to be there at 6 am and the surgery scheduled for 7:30 and 8 am. The doctor was running extra late because of the bad weather. So Tess didn't get taken back until 9 and Cami 9:30. Both girls remained happy yet hungry. The worse part was waking up from the anesthesia. They hated it. They screamed and screamed. Finally when we were able to leave around 10:30 they crashed in their car seats and slept the whole ride home. The rest of the day was miserable for them. They were fussy and tired, but they actually slept from 7p - 7a. It was much needed for them. They turned 9 months old on the 23rd. It is just amazing how fast time has gone by. They are getting funner and funner they older they get. They are always laughing at their brother and have started interacting more with each other.
