First tooth!

Annabelle's first tooth is poking through today! Bottom right front tooth.

Present for daddy

Me: will I take you shopping to buy daddy a Christmas present?

Lily: yes

Me: what would you like to get for him?

Lily: a birthday hat!

Me: a birthday hat?!

Lily: yes, a red birthday hat.

Me: ok then.

Der Biergarten

I took Lily and Annabelle to the Christmas parade in Atlanta yesterday and we ran into Lily's friend from school Robbie and his family. We had a great time watching the parade together and then all went to get some lunch at a restaurant called Der Biergarten.

It is a great spot, and the kids especially loved this sign, and a model train that runs around the dining room when you press a huge red button - heaven! The mums and dads were ok with the fact that they have nice food and beer too.

In the crib

Lily really wants to sleep in the crib with Annabelle. I wasn't sure why but I put her in there this morning just to see if she would really like it or change her mind. She immediately put the pacifier in her mouth - mystery solved!
