New Slideshow
Well since I' ve been such a slacker with blogging lately, I decided instead of trying to post a bunch of pictures, I would just make a slideshow. It is from Nana and Douglas's visit. Check it out on the right of the blog. Just click on it to watch it full screen. Enjoy.

Christmas
Things have been a bit crazy being pregnant and trying to keep up with the girls. They are such a handful right now. Fiona started climbing out of her crib, which has made bedtime a challenge. They are learning so much right now. Both of them are talking a lot. Fiona is stringing words together, as in "apple juice", "Mommy's cup" and "Isla's owie"(more about that later.) Isla only talks when she feels like it, but her favorite thing to say is, "Up please," which is difficult for me right now when she wants to be held all the time.
The girls were unimpressed with Santa. They didn't want to go anywhere near his lap, and obviously in the end, we ended up holding them.
Christmas was a whirlwind. We went up to Humboldt for a few days. Actually the girls were great on the drive both ways. Isla did throw up on the way home, but it wasn't too traumatic. We spent Christmas Eve in the ER, as Isla stepped on a coaster container and sliced her toe. After 3 hours in the waiting room, it turned out that she needed three stitches. She was a trooper. She actually enjoyed the wait, I think because she had us all to herself since Fiona was home with Grammy and Grandpa. They wrapped her up like a burrito when it was time to give her the shots and the stitches. We had to hold her down, and she just kept saying, "No, no, no, no, no." Poor baby. She gets the stitches out tomorrow. Fiona was pretty shaken up after seeing all the blood and she talks a lot about, "Isla's owie".
The girls got lots of gifts. They got fancy tricycles from Grammy and Grandpa and tons of other toys. They had a great time opening all of their gifts. They also had fun playing with all of their cousins. Here are a few pictures.

State Fair
We took the babies to the fair last week. They had so much fun. They especially loved the petting zoo and all of the junk food! See Euan feeding them the blue snow cone below. We stayed a little past bedtime and they got a little wild, as you can see in the video. Enjoy.

First Day of Preschool!
Yesterday was the babies first day of preschool/daycare. I found a great in home daycare called Seedlings. She is a credentialed teacher and follows a preschool schedule. She and her two children are also vegetarian!!! It is so nice not to have to worry about what she is feeding them! The first morning they had veggie sausage and eggs! She also has all wooden toys and there are quite a few other kids for them to play with. She told me today that they are super sweet to each other and never fight. She said if they get a toy they take one to the other one too. Great to hear since they have been fighting over toys a lot at home lately. Also, Isla fell and hit her head today and she said that Fiona was really concerned about it and stayed right next to her. Fiona has cried both days when I left but only for a few minutes. Tomorrow I have to get them there at 7:15! We shall see how that goes. Here are some pictures. Of course, the girls wouldn't stand still, so are on the run for most of the pics.
