Things have been going well as of late, I hope all of you were fortunate like we were to survive the holiday season.  

My daughter thought Christmas continued for days after December 25th since she was receiving gifts from others from family & friends for days after the sun set on Christmas.  Finally by New Years she stopped getting gifts and understood that it was supposed to have ended.  I wouldn’t say she was angry, but let’s just say she was far from amused that the presents were going to cease.  Camryn managed to rack up everything from her own personal cleaning cart to an outdoor house for her to play with.  Thanks to all family & friends for their generosity, Leslie & I would have loved to send Thank You’s but we honestly got so caught up we did not jot down where each gift came from this year. 

On another note, Leslie & I are behind (of course) on our schedule to have things ready for the baby.  We did a great job initially and managed to get Camryn  in the other room, sleeping in a ‘big-girl’ bed, which was most important so now at 2/3 months the other baby can settle into the nursery and Camryn doesn’t feel like she was pushed out of her room.  We still have to paint her room and get a few other pieces of furniature but for now it’s serving it’s purpose.  I’m all set to re-organize our closets this weekend, which should be fun seeing as to how my wife and I have wayyy too many clothes and are in dire need to get rid of more than our fair share of clothes that do not fit anymore.  We still haven’t picked a name for the baby, although we have narrowed the names down to a few and are hoping that by the time Leslie is pushing we’ll have something set in stone.  The sex of the baby is still unknown, although some say we found out and are not telling them.  From the ultrasounds, the baby looks like a boy to me, but all we really care about is ten fingers/ten toes and healthy!

I can’t believe that it is already January 13th, this month is just flying by and before I know it the new baby will be here soon.
