UPDATE!
It has been a while since I have posted some updates...so I will try to summarize our past month! It flew by and we were busy with work, travel and family!
We spent Thanksgiving with John and Laura in Lake Wales. We had a blast hanging out and relaxing in their new home---they finally live in it!!! Long time coming, but definitely worth the wait! Evie shared a room with us and her crib was all set up when we arrived.
I drove over to Orlando Thanksgiving evening and saw the rest of my family for a bit. The next morning we (Meri Ann, Mom and I) were up at 4:30 to shop til we dropped! We hit Lollipop first and got some adorable outfits for Alexander and Evie, including the ones they wore to see Santa the next day! We hit Kohl's for the great toy sales and took turns waiting in line for an hour while we also shopped! Then we went to Target...nothing great there this year! I waited in line for 30 minutes at Best Buy to get Zach's present! We saw Katie and her mom at Old Navy, then grabbed out wallflower deals at Bath and Body Works. We got home in time for a little lunch and Mom and I went back out to the Prime Outlets for a little more shopping!!! WHEW!
We saw Santa the next day at Florida Mall and I thought Evie would like him...boy, was I wrong! When I sat her on his lap, she started boo-hooing! I mean huge tears and she was reaching out for me the whole time!! I felt so bad! Alexander just sat there and looked at her. he liked Santa. Oh well--we tried!
Mia took them to Build-A-Bear and they each got to make their own Rudolph. Evie loves that his nose lights up, but she was especially interested in the red hearts that you put in the bears. She kept going back to the bowl and getting as many as would fit in her tiny hand!
She continues to change every day! Her new thing is climbing up on furniture! She likes to pull out chairs and climb in them. She also loves to climb the stairs and has finally learned how to get down them!
