Happy New Year ~ Welcome 2012!

It is hard to believe Christmas has come and gone and we are already two weeks into 2012. We had a low key evening on New Year’s Eve…Daddy had to work but Uncle Ryan came to Ottawa on the train and Auntie Carrie and Uncle Brodie came over with Sophie. We had a nice dinner that Mommy made and then we just played and played and played! I tried to stay up until midnight but fell asleep at 10:45 beside Mommy on the couch. Lucky for me she woke me up just in time to see the ball drop in NYC, so cool! I can’t wait to go to NYC one day and celebrate new years!

When Daddy got home the next day on the 1st we got to celebrate our overdue Christmas with Auntie Carrie and Uncle Brodie. Lucky for all of us little kiddos we all got some really nice gifts! It was great to get to spend some time with them, believe it or not we live really close now but we still don’t see them that much, everyone is just super busy!

Not sure if many of you know…but it is like we live in the North Pole now that we are in Ottawa. There is so much snow and there has been a couple of days this past week that is was –31 C, that means it is freezing cold! But don’t worry we have lots of warm clothes and snowsuits and we have been having lots of fun playing outside. I actually started my new skating class this week, it is lots of fun and I am getting so much better, I am the one the bright pink hockey helmet!

Now that we are into a new year, Mommy and Daddy decided Paige is no longer a baby but instead she is a big girl…they took one side off of her crib so she can learn to sleep in a bed! She has done a great job, only fell out a few times and today Daddy will be putting together her very own double bed, she is really excited!

One last picture Daddy took the other night is of Paige and I playing with our make-up/hair Princess vanities. You might remember that Santa brought us one vanity for Christmas but it was missing a part, so Gigi called Santa and asked if he could ship us the part…then magically the other day a huge box showed up at our door in Ottawa and it had a whole new vanity in it, I guess Santa misunderstood! Now we have two which is kind of nice, now we don’t have to share this toy!!!

Well, hope everyone stays warm this weekend, it is –29 C here today…I have dance class and I think we are going to go to the library, should be a fun day!

Love y’all,

Emmie and Paige
