Christmas 2009

Two posts in one day? In one month? I'm such a terrible blogger but something tells me that next year that will all change. So Christmas Eve is tomorrow. Miley still doesn't know exactly what Christmas is but she does know who Santa is this year. We went to Santa on Thursday and she did very well. We talked her up while in line, "Miley, you have to tell Santa what you want for Christmas and be real sweet so you can get a candy cane." That worked but she didn't like the candy cane.

We're headed to my mom's tonight then back to our house tomorrow so we can have Christmas morning at home. It's been a crazy month so I'm looking forward to a few days of relaxing with my feet up. Stephen has been working non-stop since last Monday so I know he's exhausted. Miley is her happy self but she's started a new phase. She has started talking back and throwing fits again. I hope this phase blows through quickly. She had been so sweet lately.

We have more exciting things coming up but I'll have to save that for another post. Hope to post about our Christmas this weekend. Merry Christmas everybody!

No more YMCA daycare :(

Last Monday we found out that Miley's daycare is closing for good on December 30. It came as a shock and we'll really miss everyone there. We've found her a new place and she'll start at the first of the year. This week and next she's at home so we can save a little bit of money.

Friday was her last day and everyone was sad to see her go. The director came to me and said "We love all the kids but some have a special place in our hearts and we're not ready to say good-bye yet. Miley is one of them." That made me cry. She might say that to everyone but it was still nice to hear that our baby was so loved. I know everyone at the new school will love her too. I really hope she will adjust quickly. The new class will have 8 girls and 2 boys. Miley has always been in classes with more boys than girls so I hope she doesn't get into cat fights ;)
