Today was a pretty low-key day. Work was work – nothing out of the ordinary. Christian is pretty excited about the cubicle they’re going to build him at work – he feels pretty big-time now. It’s cute.

I picked the girls up from my mom and headed home for the night. They were pretty much off the wall all night long. This was my exact facebook post, from not long after being home (and, the picture that accompanied it):

KIDS FOR SALE!! 2 for the price of 1. They are loud, dirty and sticky. They could easily be toddler fight club members, and they love to talk back. They don't listen and have amazing selective hearing skills. They fall a lot, run into stuff all the time and often require bandaging. But, they're cute, funny and too smart for their own good, so you'll quickly forget everything else. Clothing optional – money saver.

And, that about summed it up. Just one of those nights. We made it through dinner and baths, and then Christian and I settled in to watch a little TV before bed. Ready for the weekend – Monday is a Holiday, so I have a nice long Friday ahead of me. Bring it on!

Now that it's getting colder, Amelia is wearing Olivia's old winter PJ's. I think one of the best things about having two girls, is getting to see all of Olivia's old clothes again. Every piece of clothing brings back so many memories. I love seeing everything all over again. It just warms my heart. I think that's why I have such a hard time getting rid of stuff, especially clothes - if we have another, and it's a girl, I'd love for her to wear the clothes again. See everything all over again. Kids - they'll make you emotional! Here's a shot of the girls, side by side. Except, Olivia was 23 months old, and Amelia is 27.
