Decorating the Christmas Tree
It’s holiday time! We got the Christmas Tree yesterday morning — free plug: we love Medway Gardens — and this morning we’re setting about decorating it.
It’s important to have the roaring fire to set the mood.
Lucy is playing with (and occasionally eating) her Santa hat.
And Sadie, for the first time, is really helping to decorate the tree.
Loads of fun for everyone. Very merry.
Sadie on the phone
Sadie’s starting to get the hang of some more adult things, like talking on the phone…
Lucy is almost ready to crawl
The monster will soon be on the loose. She’s not there yet, but Lucy is getting ready to crawl. Of course, she’ll start to crawl just as we have the Christmas Tree up. I sense a blizzard of “No’s” on the way.
The kitties will get to know this face up close and personal.
December update
I’m going fast and furious on Serendeputy, A. is insane with end of the year stuff at her job, and the girls are growing very quickly. It’s hard to keep up with pictures, but I will try.
Sadie’s getting very big, now that she’s three. All the nuisances of toddlerhood are pretty much gone, and she’s a fully functioning little girl now.
Lucy is doing very well sitting up — not crawling yet, but that’s right around the corner. She sits on the rug and watches everything we do.
Sometimes she gets really excited (and a little manic) — especially when she’s playing with her turtle and baby buffalo.
She’s also really good about sitting on the chairs. She loves being up high, especially if there are kitties nearby.
Sadie’s not sure what to do when she sees Lucy playing with (i.e., eating) one of her toys, in this case, her baby doll Unc.
Sadie can usually figure out how to express her displeasure.
But, then, as always, all is forgiven. The two sisters love each other.
