'Twas the night before Christmas... I'd like to claim that noone was stirring, but Juliet is finding plenty of excuses to get out of bed and not-so-subtly walk past the study where the stockings are hanging over the fireplace. Today she and Heidi played a new game which involved shoving soft toys down their dresses, claiming to be Mary, "giving birth" to a small elephant or rooster (often via their neck as they pulled the toys out) which they immediately called Jesus, then laying Jesus on a conveniently close box of Yellowglen sparkling wine which was his "major" (i.e manger).
I'm not going to try and fill in the entire last month. It's been a very, very busy month. Highlights have been:
- Imogen is now 1. She took her first independent steps today and is extraordinarily proud of herself.
- Heidi is now 3 and still totally crazy and Heidiesque.
It's also Dad's 80th birthday tomorrow (happy birthday Dad!). We went out to lunch at Chateau Yering for a birthday lunch a couple of weeks ago which was lovely.
As Immy's now sleeping for 11/12 hours a night without waking, I'm thinking that 2010 might be a bit of a "me" year. I'm planning to enrol in yoga classes again, do a couple of evening classes in cooking and photography, and be a little less housebound in general. I think it's going to be an excellent year!
