Catching up

My goodness how time flies... Sorry for slacking on the blog. The girls are growing so fast. Lets see..... My Grandma Rutkowsky recently passed away. She was 90 years old. I flew to New York to attend the memorial. It was a sad event but at the same time, I got to reunite with my family. It was nice to see my Aunt Janet and cousins, Jessica and Danielle. I have gone back to work full time. Jeff and I mainly watch the girls but when need be, Nana Nancy, Aunt Camie and Brooke watch the girls for us. Jeff took me to Las Vegas for my 30th birthday, was awesome. Jaden has started preschool and is thriving. She comes home with a new song and some type of artwork each day she is there. She goes three days a week for three hours. Juliana is gaining a personality. She now babbles and goos, lifts her head, rolls over and smiles at us. Were still slacking in the sleep department, but it is increasing each week that she grows. Jaden will be 3 years old on March 8th, WOW!. Birthday pics to come...

Christmas and 2010

A lot has happened since Juliana was born. My best friends Lisa and Leah flew out to visit. Lisa brought Madeline, she is 5 months younger than Jaden, they stayed five days. We took them to see the Christmas lights at the Zoo. After that my mom came and stayed with us during Christmas week. Thanks for all the help from everyone. We had a very nice Christmas, morning home, afternoon at the McDaniel's house. It was fun to watch Jaden, she really was into presents and Santa this year. Jeff and I flew to the Rose Bowl on New Years Day. It was an awesome experience to be at a bowl game. Ducks lost, but they are still Pac 10 Champs and it was worth it to watch them down in Pasadena. Juliana is growing fast, already learning to roll over. Jaden is continuing to be a great big sister.

This is a freak snow storm we had recently. Jaden wanted to see if her Jeep would drive in it. Surprisingly it worked pretty well.
