It's so nice to have a clean and (relatively) clutter free house. I must say!
I have a nice beef roast in the crockpot for dinner and baked banana bread yesterday!
My last gift that I purchased online for Christmas came today! I need to wrap it up and put it away downstairs. After sending out 90 Christmas cards you'd think I'd have covered all my bases, right? Nope!!! I received a card today from someone I didn't mail one to! So I will get that out in the mail tomorrow.
Maddy as been so cute today. A few new little things... She has letter links and loves to hide them in the front pocket of my purse. I never put anything in there because it doesn't zip, but she loves to hide things in there! I find them when I'm out shopping! LOL! Also, she's taken to using the word 'this' (although it comes out more 'dis'). She points to what she wants and labels it 'this'! She understands cookie now because she'll point to the kitchen cabinet if I ask her if she wants a cookie. She's learning to ask for help by handing me the things she wants help with or pointing to what she wants. She's toddling around furniture QUITE nimbley now!!! And she stand on her own for a few seconds at a time. You can tell she's testing out her balance. She's been enjoying pressing the Tivo buttons and the TV button. She also enjoys helping me open the mail. She helps me turn off her white noise machine and helps me turn on and off (and on and off and on and off) her light in her room too. She also loves to throw balls over the kitchen gate now, too. Daddy will play ball with her that way, but I'll be honest, I'm not as readily willing to do it otherwise I will start having ALL her toys over the gate.
Well, I should go wrap that gift and mail that card!
I won't be online much tomorrow so don't expect the usual blog. I will most likely have time on Sunday night. Have a good weekend, everyone!
