Yesterday I took both the girls to Target and Toys R Us and finished getting Kaitlyn's gifts. I'm proud of myself! It's not easy taking two kids and getting gifts while trying to hide them from one! We didn't really get much for Lauren, so far I've got a little rattle and some teethers. I'll probably get one more small thing for her, but she's so young she really isn't going to need much or even remember anything. Kaitlyn on the other hand, will have a decent Christmas. We were both hoping to get her some type of VTech learning system, but they're so expensive! I saw on a commercial last night that a store here is having a great sale and has them for only $20!! These things are normally $70 so if we find it we'll be getting that and then that's it! No more for her.
I'm really excited that we're in a house this year because we'll be able to put Christmas lights up and we're even going to go and buy a real tree! I'm thinking about buying some cranberries and stringing them with Kaitlyn. I also have been thinking about making applesauce decorations. (You mix the cinnamon and applesause and use cookie cutters to make characters and let them dry.) I'm just wanting Kaitlyn to have a good Christmas this year, which she will be, and have her more involved with everything since she's older.
Lauren's gotten so big! I can't believe she's already a month old! She smiles now too! She's got the cutest little smile. It started Saturday. I was talking to her and kept getting smiles. I was so excited! So no more gassy smiles. Now all I have to do is catch her in the act! Kaitlyn's doing much better with her. She's always kissing her and wanting to hug her. I even managed to get her to hold her today for a picture. Now all I need to work on her with is keeping her eyes open during pictures, lol.
