What? It's December already!

Holy cow....It's Dec 1st 2008. How did that happen? Who knows! The time is just flying by!

I'm excited to say that Ella slept 5 (maybe it was 5 1/2) hrs last night!! WOOHOO. Little Ella Bella is going for her 2 month well check tomorrow along with some shots. Poor baby. I can't wait to see how big she has gotten! I can't get over how happy she is just about ALL of the time. She's got these BIG blue eyes...not like Aly & Paul with their almond shaped eyes.

Paul is still wreaking havoc all over the place. He's been coughing at night, but thankfully we've only had one puking incident so far. He is just the worst teether. His new thing is climbing up on the kitchen chairs and helping himself to whatever is on the table. Some of his new words are juice, cow, no (along with shaking his head from side to side), and a cute version of please. He's so aware of the world around him...this morning he heard helicopters and climbed up on the couch to look out the window to see what it was that he heard! He also loves toting around a bag of some sort with things in it and then waving bye bye. It really is so cute. Oh, and my favorite thing is that Paule helps unload the dishwasher. YES! He takes the silverware out, opens the drawer where we keep it, and puts everything in there!!! He'll also take out the small plates and hand them to me as he says "Ma Ma".

Alyson is on the verge of being potty trained....she just prefers a diaper because she's lazy. I'm in no mood to just put panties on her and clean up after her several times a day. I know I have to....UGH. She's into imitating what she sees on tv in her imaginative play, taking care of babies (stuffed toys) and helping cook and clean. She's also discovered how to look in a toys r us circular and say "I want my very own _____ (insert whatever toy she is looking at)". She's also well aware that Santa is coming soon and that he's going to bring her toys if she is good. Now we have to convince her to GIVE some toys to Santa for boys and girls that have no toys.

I'm still without a digital camera, so no new pictures! I'm sorry! I'm hoping to get my DSLR SOON so I can start taking some AMAZING pics of the kids.
We Love You All!!
