Christmas 2010

Christmas had to come early for us because everyone had to work late on Christmas Eve or on Christmas Day.

Himani loves checking out my new necklace. She keeps asking me "Why did Josh put that on your neck?" Cute

Addi's best present from us was the backpack. Her nickname should be backpack. She says it all the time, over and over. She always wears it and after she opened it she didnt take it off until it was time for bed.

Since you been gone

Himani and I haven't stayed too far apart since I haven't watched her everyday.

About a month ago Addison, my mom and I met up with Himani and Annie at Monkey Buziness. I met Annie the new nanny for the first time. She is so nice and pretty much exactly what I had in mind she would be. I felt someone good was taking over for me and I can really tell how much she is teaching Himani. Himani was super excited when she saw Addi. H is a hugger, Addi is not. Addi is a big kisser, H not as much. It was pretty funny watching them trying to fight each other off when they were doing this to the other. I noticed Addi did alot of things Himani use to do at her age. They both just loved to stop and watch the other kids. Himani couldnt get enough of Addison. I am not sure why b/c Addison has gone down a slide before but she tried to walk down them. She is a little dare devil and would do anything.

I have a hilarious video of Ad and H going down a slide on their tummy. Ad has probably never gone down on her belly and she didnt get the concept. Himani went down first then Addi tries to get up on all fours and falls forward and hits her head with a loud bang.I busted out laughing knowing she wasnt going to cry about it.

When I have time with just Himani we have been doing projects. For Halloween we made masks and foam silly people in costumes. Didn't do anything for Thanksgiving because she was in California going to Disneyland (I was jealous!) For Christmas we made a Gingerbread house. I slipped and said the gingerbread was a cookie. So she figured out everything we were putting on it you could eat. SO I told her the frosting was actually glue so we couldnt eat that part.

Last night when I watched her we played Just Dance 2, she showed me all of her new things she got for xmas, showed me her awesome new play area under the steps and cuddled in the hammock while playing with all my kid apps I had bought for her a long time ago on my phone.

Merry Christmas to me

Josh and I decided to buy us a fancy camera for Christmas... or about a month before Christmas. We agreed this would be our present to each other... and then on Christmas day he surprised me a with diamond heart necklace. = D

These are our first pictures taken on the camera. I have taken more than Josh and it was his idea. He says he needs to read the book about how to work it before he does.

The Time Has come the Walrus Said

When the last day with Himani was approaching I kept saying "The time has come the walrus said" over and over again in my head. I think it had something to do with a movie I use to watch when I was little. "Harriet the Spy" It was a nickelodeon movie and the girl in it, Harriet, had a nanny. The nanny and the little girl said this poem while the nanny was packing up her things when she knew it was time for her to go and move on with her life. Sad I know.

The last day with Himani was just a rough day. I had a bunch of stressful check off's at school. They ran late, like always. I decided not to put Himani down for a nap so we could play. Saying goodbye was hard. I think I got all my crying out the week before. So when it came time to leave, I just left. We had already made an arrangement to see each other within the next couple of weeks so I figured not to make leaving so hard.

These are some pictures from the last week. We went to Deanna Rose Farm, ate lots of ice cream and played with Addison.

FINALLY

I forgot how to upload pictures in a slide show but Ryan showed tonight after babysitting for them. So I have tons of pictures. From the last week being with Himani. And when I've seen her since, Addi with a new camera Josh and I bought and Christmas!

Update on me. I passed my first semester of Nursing School. It was a rough start but I ended doing really good. I had a great time with my clinicals. My first 10 weeks I was at Rose Hall, it was in Leavenworth and housed Sisters. It was worth the drive. The last 4 weeks I was at KUMED. I unit 53 which had a bunch of everything really. I gave 2 shots. So it was nice to get the first out of the way. I start my second semester 1/18 and it looks like this semester or at least the first 8 weeks are going to be unorganized... AGAIN because We have no clue where our clinical sites will be or when.

Again. Sorry for the long time of not updating. But I think I got it down and will keep it updated more often when I see Himani or Addi does something cute. It may take the next couple of days for me to add all my updates... but they are coming.
