It's a new year and a new shot at getting back to blogging....it's been pretty crazy lately thus the blogging has fallen by the wayside. So here is another shot...
Well needless to say plenty has gone on with the girls! The holidays were a blast, lots of family time, lots of presents...lots of me drinking because of all the extra family time...you know the typical holiday stuff. (I kid, I kid)
Piper really finally began to realize a lot more this holiday season so we had a great time with lots of different things i.e. elf on the shelf, decorating the tree, seeing Santa, making a list for Santa, Christmas goodies, making cookies for Santa, and of course...writing a letter to Santa after Christmas to inform him he forgot to bring two very important things she wanted, a kitchen with curtains, and the "Roger" movie, which I later discovered is in fact 101 Dalmatians, Roger is the owner of the male Dalmatian.
And yes, you read correctly, Piper did write a letter informing Santa he didn't bring her some things she thought he should have....nice kid....well played. Of course Piper also told me last night when I asked her what she wanted to be when she grew up, that she didn't want to be a doctor or lawyer or anything like that...nope....when Piper grows up, she wants...to be in charge. Fair enough...you are your mother's daughter for sure!
Maizy has really taken off, she is running everywhere, singing, talking and insisting just as much as her sister that we read to her. She enjoys crawling up on mom or dad's lap with her sister and having marathon book reading sessions, which is fantastic...that is unless all I want is a cup of coffee at 7am on a Saturday...
Traci took a new job this year at a Medical Malpractice Insurer out of Minneapolis, MN called MMIC. She seems to really be loving it, and the company seems great as well. I am really proud of her with the balancing act of running a firm and taking care of the girls, and then transitioning to a new job, shutting down her firm and still tending to the kids...I'm not sure what I was doing that whole time...probably eating a snack or playing Candy Crush. But in all seriousness, she's amazing and because of her we get to share in the adventure of raising two amazing children.
The holidays were great, in fact they were some of the best I can remember, seeing the girls surrounded by so much happiness and love really was amazing to be a part of, I hope everyone's holiday season was full of love as well.
So this is a short blog entry I know, but I am really hoping I can get it in gear and start blogging more! I promise...I'll try, it's just really hard to find the time to do this kind of stuff when you are as important as I am...I'm a big deal folks.
And remember, LIFE IS GOOD!
