the holidays went by so fast. it is 2015!
my mom and dad were here for christmas. h enjoyed having lolo and lola visit for 2 weeks. it was long, but everyone had a nice time. got lots of yummy filipino food. we were able to do lots of fun things in dec like go to see gingerbread houses and visit santa for the first time. went to the trail of lights twice. crazy lights only once. made christmas cookies at home and also with auntie and kris. we hosted christmas eve and christmas dinner, so amy and i were in the kitchen a lot. it was frozen palooza on christmas morning. she was getting so worn out with opening gifts, she started opening gifts with her feet. it is always nice to be at home for christmas.
we had a slight set back on the potty traning. she was golden for about 8 months but then started going backwards. at first her underwear was a little wet, saying she couldnt make it to the bathroom. then she had a few full on accidents. we freaked out and started back on the pullups, which was probably not the best idea because she started getting lazy. i mean, come on, i wouldn't get up to go if i had a diaper too! so we had to re access and get back on track. gummy bears, starburst and chocolate seemed to help out. she has been doing well again since mid dec, but needs to be reminded every hour. hopefully we will be back to having her let us know when she needs to go. the teachers have been great helping us get back on track.
i think we have officially seen and read every disney princess movie/book out there. h is definitely into her princess phase. i have to say that i had not seen a lot of the classics, oddly enough. we all can't wait to take her to disney, sooner than later. could you imagine the look on her face when we do go? i don't remember being excited about all of that princess stuff when i was little, but i do remember our adventures in disney. they were so much fun!
for my birthday, i wanted to lay on the beach and do nothing. that is what we did. went to cancun for 5 days and the weather was perfect. 80 degrees and sunny. all we did was eat, lay on the beach, eat, nap and eat again. unfortunately h started getting a little snotty the day we left. then amy started coughing while we were there. then the sickness began. amy and h were down for many days after getting back home, h with a fever of 101. then i got it and currently have it. fever, sore throat, headache. it has been so fun. the weather has been so nice here too, it is hard trying to recover. getting thrown off routine is hard.
looking forward to what 2015 brings us.
