Wow! I cannot believe it is the middle of January and I haven't written since the beginning of November. (Shame on me...) So much has happened in the past 2 months. The most important & exciting event is the birth of Caroline Reese, born on December 1. She is absolutely precious and everything we could want in a sweet daughter. Madelyn loves being a big sister! She cuddles with her all of the time and calls her "sweetie pie", "honey bunny", "little sister", & "baby". It's really, really sweet to hear her. She loves to help me change her diaper, feed her a bottle, & lately give her a bath. Life couldn't be better! It is really busy and can be quite hectic at times. Caroline is starting to sleep more on a routine at night. She goes down around 7 and wakes up around 3 or 4 and goes back to sleep until 7:30-8:00. Not bad!
Christmas was wonderful, especially with Madelyn & Caroline. Santa was soooo good to all of us. Madelyn got her "Pat Pat Rocket" that she had been asking for since October. Madelyn was off from school for a couple of weeks. She headed back the second week of January. I think she was happy to go back and see her friends.
This weekend brought us a new challenge...POTTY TRAINING! Yikes :) She did great the first day...no accidents! It is still a work in progress and I think she will get the hang of it soon. I have potty prizes to help her these first few days.
We also put our house on the market this weekend. That was a huge undertaking!! I never realized how much "stuff" we owned! We signed a contract on a new house just a couple of miles up the road. Let's just hope this house sells!! I cannot wait :).
Well, hopefully I won't wait for 2 more months to write again!
