Wow, it seems as if all I have been writing about lately are the gifts that we have been receiving. This is another one of those posts. I cannot say it enough of how many wonderfully generous people we have in our lives. Chris, Claire and I are truly blessed. Mark & April, long-time friends, gave us the Baby Einstein Blocks, Swaddler and a $50 gift card to Target. Way too much, but we look forward to using each item. Hopefully the Swaddler will keep her nice and warm, which will result in LONG, SLEEPING EPISODES!! The pink baby outfit to the above right was given to us by Donna, who is our technology coordinator at school. Again, a very generous person. She already contributed to my baby shower earlier last week! Finally, the two brightly colored outfits below were sent from Kelly and Bekah, Chris' sister and our niece. They are certainly cute. I am sure Claire will look beach ready in each of them.
So, we are still roughing it in our amazingly, wonderfully fabulous, new house. That means, air mattresses in our living room. Fun. The girls love it, Chris and I not so much ;) Anyway, the close proximity means Chris and I get to eavesdrop on some very tender moments. They seriously bring tears to my eyes. How did we get so lucky to have them as our children??? Here's one example. Claire--"Mya, can we snuggle?" Mya--"sure." Claire--"don't let go." Mya--"No, I'll just wait until you are sleeping." Claire--"No, you wait until the middle of the night." Mya--"Okay, I'll wait until the middle of the night." Then we hear lips smacking. So cute. I won't share the meltdown that occured moments before this sweetness ;) Life isn't always rosey, now is it? Ha! In other news..we get internet today and our furniture/things tomorrow! That means 1 more night of "roughing it!" Yippee!
