Thursday, 27 December

So today, I decided to take down the Christmas tree - once it's over, it's over for me. I start early but as soon as the holiday is over, I'm ready for Spring. So it took me a while but I got all of the ornaments down and wrapped up, boxed and put away, the beads, ribbons, bows on top and glittery sticks came out pretty easy, the lights took a little longer but got them put away in individual bags so they won't be tangled next year, then the tree. The cats had made a field day of it - when I woke up this morning I heard a loud thump - it was Finnegan climbing the tree and ended up pulling half of the branches out (fake tree) so this just motivated me a little more to take the tree down. After that, it was time to get Olivia up. She slept so well - didn't get up once during the night. Woke her up, fed her, gave her a bath and got her dressed. We had a big day ahead of us, so we got in the car and started our errands. We had to go grocery shopping, we went to KMart to get wrapping paper, Christmas cards (next year) and a few other things. I found White painted wood cut outs of her name - so cute. We also went to Tim Horton's for some coffee (me). Got home and fed Olivia, she is really talkative, not sure exactly what she is saying but she is so happy doing it, makes me smile. Oh - I also went to Target and got Pink Boxes (to put her lotions/medicines in) and a new crib mobile. So put everything away - her room is finally done. With the painting that I just did up, it looks really cute. I'm so happy how it turned out. After Olivia's nap, we just hung out - got lots of hugging up on her, her laugh is infectious and she kept making me gigle. Kurt got home, I had made some dinner - it was okay, nothing major. So we ate then it was a night to relax, watched a movie and hung out with the baby. She fell asleep on Kurt's chest, so cute.
