Trying to get back to normal

Well, I'm back at work for the first full week for the last little while due to the holidays. We had a really good Christmas despite the lack of sleep. We stayed over at my Mom and Dad's for Christmas so we could do Christmas morning together and then over New Year's we went to my sister's house in Michigan. Well, Colista apparently doesn't go to bed when we're not a home. Christmas Eve I didn't get to start doing Santa until 10:30 pm because it took her that long to go to sleep and being in a strange bed, I had to stay with her until she was really good and asleep. Then she didn't sleep well at my sister's house either. Good thing that we had a 4 hour drive home for her to get a good nap or she might have become a little terror. LC loved Christmas and had fun with everything, it was really fun to watch her. She helped Lilly open some presents and really just enjoyed everything. After all the craziness was done, apparently she needed to just have some calm as she took her barbie doll into the other room and was just sitting there on the floor. As most people know when you can't see a two year old and it's quiet, you tend to worry cause usually they're doing something they shouldn't be, so my dad went looking for her. Well he found he in the back room just sitting on the floor and when he asked her what she was doing, she told him "I'm sitting Grandpa."

We did fight sick again in between Christmas and New Years. Lilly got really sick and I ended up taking her into the doctor and she was having a severe reaction to the antibiotic she was one for her ear infection. She is doing much better now, so we're good now.

New Years we went to Michigan to my sister's house and it was a lot of fun. My sister has three boys and a girl and LC and Emma had so much fun together. Last night I was kind of prepping her that we were going back to daycare so hopefully we wouldn't have a really bad adjustment, and I was talking about her friends that were going to be there and she tells me "and my friend Emma". Emma is 5 and was really good and playing with her and taking care of her, it was fun to watch.

Now we get to try to get back into our regular routine and get used to normal life again. Wait what am I talking about, there's no such thing as normal. So I guess we'll get ready for the next crazy thing to happen and hoepfully be ready for it.
