I bought two sets of Christmas PJ's this year because I could decide which one's I liked (they both were last year's after Christmas "specials" if you will) The blue one's were only $3 each, and the pink one's were bought on a Gap gift card - what could be better than that?
Brielle is getting so big! She has starting to rock back & forth and thinking that she is old enough to crawl. When Brooklyn was Brielle's age right now she was already crawling - I am in no big rush for it to happen though, because then the real baby-proofing needs to begin! She already has tried to eat plently of needles from the Christmas tree, not to mention the teensy, tiniest things she can find on the floor. She is such a sweet baby - but I am learning that she is a bit stubborn. She refuses to sleep on her own and I had to try the "tough love" approach a few days ago to put her to bed and she cried for 3 hours straight! She didn't even stop for a split second. After 2 hours I kept thinking ok, any second now - she will just crash. Nope. I finally went in because I was starting to feel horrible and she fell asleep the instant I picked her up. Last night it only lasted about an hour, so hopefully she will catch on soon! She is such a Daddy's girl, though. Much more than Brooklyn was for sure. The minute Dad walks in the door - Mom is chopped liver. She starts jumping in my arms saying "dadadadadada" it's pretty cute. It's probably because I'm the evil Mom who lets her cry herself to sleep.
