Can't Keep Up

For the past few days one would think that I have simply forgotten my blogs. That would be untrue. As I laid with CJ as she drifted off to sleep I wondered what was up? Then it came to me, when I am home with CJ I have so much fun I get worn out. Then I lay down and the next things I know a new day is upon me. When I do think to blog it is usually in the middle of a turn or bathroom run and then I sit down to jot something quick and then forget to return the next day. I do not want you to think I have forgotten but this sleep has been doing the trick recently and the more I get the more I want.

Today was winter picture time. So CJ got all dolled up and off to the photographer, (personal that is) we went. The first attempt at a picture was negative. CJ wanted to eat and play before she smiled for the camera. So we allowed her to do just that and then Daddy noticed she put her head down. Daddy said, "If we are doing this picture we might want to proceed now because the thumb is in her mouth and she is laying her head down." So we went in the studio and prepared her for the picture. This time Daddy stayed in the room and pulled out his camera to trick her into smiling. CJ did not disappoint us either. She smiled, giggled, laughed, yelled, posed and did anything else she wanted to do while all we wanted was a good picture to send people for Christmas.

CJ#2 also had the opportunity to play with CJ#1 today. It is always so nice to see them play so well together. They have both grown so fast and they interact like two peas in a pod. So all in all it was a great day. We even had the opportunity to go dine as a family tonight. All CJ wanted was fries and Daddy's ice cream, lol. Mommy was not pleased and CJ knew it. When I gave her some she turned to Mommy and gave her a huge sly smile. I did make her eat her vegetables first at least!

Mommy said she does not know who to feel sorry for, CJ or Daddy? She should just join you all and pray for us both. We know that prayer changes things, people, and situations.

NOTE TO CJ: Before you eat dessert remember to always eat your vegetables. Vegetables help make you intelligent, healthy and strong!
