Nothing much

So not much is happening here. We are just gearing up for the Jolly Ol' Fat Man as my Dad would say. We haven't a present under the tree, but a closet full of them. Between the Cats and Maddie being able to crawl and get into things we decided to keep them all out of reach until Christmas Eve. So the closet is busting at it's seams with presents for the whole family and we still have more to wrap and put in there. Oh Christmas is going to be wonderful.

So speaking of Maddie Crawling.. she is no longer doing the Army Crawl scoot on the floor thing. She is doing the full blown crawling. And when there is food involved she can get to her destination in a Heartbeat! That girl loves to eat. She is getting to the point were she does not want to have anything to do with her bottle... she wants the food! For dinner she had a jar of Lasagna baby food and then she had cooked diced carrots. She was doing a half way decent job of picking them up and feeding herself with the carrots. Anyone that knows me knows that I can't stand Carrots, so she did not get her taste for carrots from me. After Maddie ate it was time for the "grown ups" to eat. We were eating Borscht (sp?) which is Beet Soup. It is actually quite delicious if you like beets. Well Maddie was watching us eat and getting very upset that she could not have any.... as she usually does. Well, we decided to let her taste the soup. Since it was a clear liquid I didn't think it would hurt to give her a little taste. Well she made the funniest faces and she would lift her eyebrows.. it was hilarious. She would act like she wasn't sure if she liked it but then would open wide for another taste. I tell you she is her Father's Daughter when it comes to food!!!

Well that is about all I have to share today. Nothing much new with us, but just want to keep the blog going so no one thinks I dropped off the face of the planet again. :)
