It's almost sad that Ivy's already received the best Christmas gift a kid could ask for and she's only two. Santa brought her a pink and purple Big Wheel this year! It was so nice out today that she got out and rode it up and down the driveway. Eric and I remember how much we loved our Big Wheels when we were kids, so it's fun to see that some things never change...
We had a great weekend with family and food celebrating Ada's baptism today. Craig even made it back from California to be her godfather, Eric's sister Angie is her godmother. Something cute that I wanted to mention: Ivy opened Ada's baptism gifts and said "Oh me GOSH!" after opening them..it was priceless..
Ada had her 2 month well baby checkup today and the doctor said she looked great. She weighed 13lbs 12oz which put her in the 97th percentile for weight. She definitely did not enjoy her shots, poor thing. Ivy barely flinched when she got her shots, so it was a lot harder to handle with Ada.
She's such a happy, easy-going baby, it's so fun to have her around. She's been sleeping 8-9 hours through the night for a few weeks now. I especially like that since I'm back to working half days this week. She's cooing and smiling like crazy and holding her head up well.
New Year's Eve was quite the party this year! We took the kids out to eat at 6pm to Jersey's where we just barely got a table. Then we went home, put the girls to bed (well Ivy at least) and watched a movie that we had rented. It was called "Burn After Reading" which I suggest you burn after watching...or skip watching altogether. We managed to stay awake for New York to drop the ball, then happened to peak one eye open to see the clock hit midnight before it was off to bed. Having kids definitely changes your New Year's plans, but I wouldn't have it any other way!
Today, Eric took Ivy sledding in the snow leftover from Christmas. She got snow boots and a sled from grandma Margie that she was anxious to use. The snow was iced over, so Eric just pushed her a little bit and she just slid down the hill, it was adorable.
