Big Boy Bed!

We bought Jack a "big boy bed" the other day! He's really taken to the Cars characters and Lightening McQueen so we got a toddler bed with those guys on it. We're not in any way forcing him to sleep in it yet if he doesn't want to cause he still really likes his crib. The first day he napped in it and it was just like he was in his crib. But since then, whenever given the choice, he chooses to sleep in his crib. And since Norah never got a "fun" toddler bed, we bought her a princess pink bed tent type thing now. She loves it - I don't blame her - it looks so cozy!

Bragging!

I'm finally posting again after 6 months. Because I love this story so much I don't want to forget it. I was working in the kitchen and Norah was working at her "craft" table. All of a sudden I hear "mommy, look at the Christmas tree". So I went and looked and this is what I found.

She wrote that all on her own and put a "stamp" on the corner. And this is what was inside!

I know I'm bragging, but I'm still in shock that she drew this freehand and colored it! She wasn't even looking off another picture to draw this! Don't know who she gets her artistic side from but it's so neat to watch!
