Esther's a good baby. I mean, really, really good baby. couldn't ask for a better baby. and this isn't biased mom gushing. this is objective reality. she sleeps well, she almost never cries. this evening I put her down asleep thinking she was out for the night and when she woke up she just... talked. blah? blah! blah. oh, and we got her a bumbo seat. she just sits there, eating her hands and watching us.
Orin is a good dog, too. he's so good with the kids. he doesn't beg when we're eating, just lays on the floor at our feet. chris walks him almost every day--I'm so surprised, since I practically had to twist his arm to even get a dog! he doesn't mess in the house and doesn't chew things. he hardly even sheds! I worried about having a dog and a baby, as far as work goes, but easy baby plus easy dog makes for an easygoing household.
I put up a bunch of christmas/advent stuff. got my wreath put together for the table, and picked up some candles for it today. put up a nativity on the kitchen window ledge--fits perfectly! got my wreath for the front of the house, put up lights and other decorations, and set up the fake tree in the basement for the kids to decorate however they want. we'll get a real tree for the livingroom, and have another, bigger nativity to set up there somewhere.
I need to write in here more. I can either stop here, or keep going for another 5 paragraphs.
