1. I am enjoying 30 minutes of quiet while Caroline is at Lunch Bunch and William is napping. Heaven.
2. This little man spent 45 minutes in his high chair eating bowl after bowl of applesauce and then another 45 minutes later in the morning eating frozen blueberries.
3. Did I mention he no longer believes in wearing bibs?
4. Based on #2, guess what I have spent most of my day doing? I'll give you a hint: I called Steve and told him I'd reached my maximum daily quota of diaper changes. TMI?
5. Raise your hand if the bottom half of your Christmas tree has been stripped of ornaments, at least 2 of said ornaments are broken, and you have more pine needles on the floor than on the tree itself. It just makes me smile, though, since William is overjoyed by the tree.
6. I have most of my Christmas cards in the mail, most of my shopping done, and I think I've made my last trip to the post office. Next up: holiday baking.
7. I've been reading a lot lately while William naps and Caroline has her tv time. Any recommendations for a great book? I prefer fiction.
8. The Angel Gabriel(la) is still all the rage at our house. Caroline had her princess posse over Monday afternoon, and she got the girls in on her act. They were running around, each dressed in one of Steve's white t-shirts, playing angels and Mary. And then they started celebrating Hanukkah - still in character. It was hilarious. It got even more hilarious when they decided to be reindeer. The girls stripped down to their panties and started running around singing Jingle Bells. Who knew you had to be naked to be a reindeer?
9. 10 more days until we head home to Chicago - yippee!

have you read STILL ALICE? alla has always loved frozen blueberries, too.
Just read Shanghai Girls (by Lisa See) and really liked it! And after I read about William's eating fest I thought, "I bet those were some nice diapers!" so #3 was not TMI! :-)
