Sisters are Sweet


I knew there was a reason I always wanted a sister (or a sibling at all for that matter!).  Reina LOVES Kaiya. She is more involved with her each day, which probably has a lot to do with Kaiya staying awake a little more as she gets older.  She'll be one month on Christmas Eve already! I have been on a mission to get a good, cute picture of the two girls, but it has been tough, as one always squints and makes funny faces during pictures, and the other is completely oblivious.  Here are a few that are ok.



 Kaori and Sklya came to visit with Kaiya and Reina last week.  Skyla also opened all of her presents (two for Xmas and one for her birthday - which is the same day as mine).  Reina and Kaiya also recieved presents from Kaori and Skyla - cute fur jackets.  Hopefully the weather continues to cool, so that we get to wear them soon!

I can't even wake her up if I move her.  She will just keep sleeping!
My time alone with Kaiya has ended.  It was much easier than with Reina, as Kaiya is a very good napper. She almost always has at least one good, long (like 4 hours) nap and a well rested mama is much better for everyone.  I even got good at juggling both kids in the morning.  I still don't know how single moms do it (or moms who have husbands who are lazy and don't do anything - Chris is WONDERFUL).  Now Reina and Dad are at home with me every day, and as I mentioned, Grandma will be here today, followed by Granddaddy in January.  Now to find a daycare...

Mom and Halil get here at 12:30....TODAY!  Yay.
