December 1st


Emma is back! My happy, funny, chatty and sweet little girl is back! Not that she didn't have moments of sweetness during the last month, but today Emma had a really good day.
This morning she and Henry opened their first advent gifts and they had such a good time trying to hang their new ornaments on the tree. When Henry went down for his morning nap, Emma and I decorated the rest of the Christmas tree. She was so cute about it, taking her time and carefully placing the ornaments just so. We had a really nice time together.

When Henry woke up I explained to him that he was not to touch the Christmas tree. Of course this was too tempting for an almost-two-year-old so as soon as I turned around he tore down a few decorations. We have recently started to try time outs with Henry so I told him to go to time out because he had touched the tree when I had said not to. Henry ran straight to the hall closet (this is where Dan put him for a time out yesterday) and sat down with a pouty look on his face. I think he secretly likes to sit in there for a minute or two...
