Seperation and more

Well, it happened. I had to give up my studio room. We moved Zoe into her very own "big girl room" and for the time being Sydney has her own too. Syd will be sharing her room with the new baby eventually. We are hoping that this will help Zoe to fill more grown up and extra special so she will act like a 'big girl" instead of like her little sister. We are also hoping that it helps Sydney feel more comfortable in the big sister role that she is about to take on. First night was rough - both kids didn't want to be apart and ended up in our room about 5 times each. The last two nights have been better, and I for one believe that once they get use to the idea the arrangments will lead to better sleep for everyone.

By the end of the week our holiday guest (Nanny) will be in residence, and we anticipate seeing much more of Auntie Shar as Christmas grows nearer. For now we are working hard at finishing our shopping and wrapping and other preparations. The kids are on Santa countdown. The weather finally turned cold (20's or so) and we have had a bit of ice and snow, but so far nothing like previous years. Here's hoping for a white but not too icey Christmas!
