Wow, it seems ages ago that we put Lucy into the big girl bed but it's been only a week. Sleeping is still touch and go but I know it will get better.
Thanksgiving was great - with 5 busy children, chaos reigned, but it's so great to see 5 happy kids who love to play together. Wyatt and Karma played the role of "big" kids, Jake played with every toy in the house, Henry enjoyed the cat food, and Lucy was pretty much along for the ride.
After we survived Thursday, we managed to hit a lot of Christmas events. Friday morning, we hit Factoria mall for a little Tim Noah and Santa Claus. After setting up the Christmas decorations on Saturday, we hit the Kirkland tree lighting downtown. The A Cappella group that was singing had everyone in the crowd sing "12 Days of Christmas." This, needless to say, caused Lucy to scream "no, no, no" over and over again at the top of her lungs. And finally, Sunday morning, we went at got Lucy's picture taken with Santa Claus. She was a little bit shy, but didn't cry.
She's currently been watching "Elmo's Christmas Countdown" as many times as she can convince me to let her, so I think we are officially in the holiday spirit here at the Wheelwright house.
