New toy shelf
Maggie can rock herself.
She also likes to be rocked by Lucy.
The latest fashion.
So cozy.
Tonight was the Christmas program at Lucy's preschool. She did a great job singing and sitting in her chair.
She seemed to have a good time.
Lucy and Maggie tumbling on the mat.Tonight after I tucked the girls in I heard Lucy practicing her Christmas program songs. It was so cute I tried to record some, but I didn't want to go in and mess up the nice time. Lucy stopped a couple of times to talk. The first time she is talking about not putting toys in her mouth. Maggie is cutting some teeth and really chewing. So Lucy is imitating this behavior and I told her not to. Then she asks Maggie if she is OK. Maggie is letting me know that Libby is barking to get in. All in all the room transition is going pretty well. Maggie has cried a bit more. Mainly because she doesn't want to stop playing. Also, Maggie usually falls asleep with the light off and Lucy does with the light on reading. So we are working that out.
I moved Maggie's crib in with Lucy's bed today. They had a great time listening to the Cars soundtrack and playing with toys while Mommy worked. We tucked them in about 15 minutes ago and they are currently squealing and playing. We'll see how the night goes.
There were several motivating factors that led to this none of which include a new baby (there will be no more little Browns at our house.) First, I always wanted to share a room with a sister. I think siblings that share a room have a closer bond. Second, the computer is currently in the playroom. Lucy has started to think that it is her personal toy and we don't like that. Third, we want to have an adult sanctuary. Currently the kids go everywhere and there is not place for Mom or Dad to go hang out when we need some down time. So the plan is to turn Maggie's old room into a media room with the computer, a TV, video games and a couch. The girls will have the entire basement as a playroom.

Maggie refused to have her snack in the high chair yesterday. So they had their crackers at the little table watching Dora.
We got our first little snow today.

Maggie was so bundled she could hardly move.
This is our new fake Christmas tree that we purchased this year. I love it!

I guess Maggie didn't get enough car time over the holiday because she crawled right in her car seat when I was washing the covers this morning.

All tucked in for a nap.
Daisy got a pretty new collar and bone. Libby got a new harness, but she was outside playing at the time of pictures.
Lucy playing with Jon's old Transformers.
Poor Maggie was up part of the night last night with a stuffy nose. Lucy started with the bug on Friday. She said she had 10 sickies then the next day when I got her out of her bed she said she was fantastic and was playing like normal. I hope Maggie recovers as well. She seems to be doing pretty good. No fever and she is playing and eating.
Maggie will only drink out of a bottle or a straw - no sippy cups for her. She loves that she now has a Dora cup like Lucy's. For some reason Dora Water is better that plain old water.
We found the second chair at Hobby Lobby today. We had a 40% off coupon burning a whole in our pocket and couldn't resist.

Scooch over just a hair.
I fit.
Why did you leave?
Ahhhh...this is better.
I got out the Christmas books yesterday. Lucy loves this one that plays music.
Maggie likes to play kitchen. She is starting to stir and cook rather than just opening all the doors and throwing everything on the floor.
When I asked Lucy what kind of cake Maggie should have for her birthday she didn't miss a beat and replied, "A bunny cake!!"
Maggie really loved being sung to.
She was also very happy to have Daddy home. She even shared her beloved blankie with him.
Maggie doesn't mess around when it comes to food.

Lots of awesome pictures taken by Abbie.
