Schnell!

I don't know if I spelt schnell right, but it means quick or fast in german. I miss german. I lived in Switerland for a year for you who don't know. I miss it. Anyhoo, this is a quick one so here my list for the day, it's a good one.
Projects I'm halfway through and have little hope of ever finishing:
1. Christmas stockings I'm making
2. Ham soup from left over ham (it's been on the counter all day:-)
3. Katelyns blankie I started knitting a year ago!
4. Katelyns bassinette I really wanted to make
5. a quilt I started about 5 minutes ago (I just picked out the fabric)
6. my Switerland scrapbooks
7. painting our bathrooms
8. organizing our closets
9. making cool magnet thingys for gifts
10. all my christmas baking and once a month cooking
11. be really good at piano

This is just depressing! But hey thats me, I start something, get really excited, then never finish. Boo. Heres some pics to cheer us all up.
This is our dancing naked girl, she just loves grabbing those little toesies.
As of Wendsday of this week katelyn eats real food! If you can call blended banana mixed with mommie milk food. I did a little research and found banannas to be the closest food to mommie milk. In fact, for those that care, cereal was suggested as a first food only because formula feed babies could digest it easier! I know, it's crazy that we just do things because thats the way they are. Her next food is avacado and I'm really hoping she'll eat it. If not I'll give her apple next and then mix the apple with the avacado. It's so fun figuring all these new things out!
I don't know if I'm writing these comments under the right pics, but one of these pics was a sweet sneeze. look at that delicious snot! Thatta girl!

Hey Holli,
Sounds like a plan. I would love to go for a walk. That picture of Katelyn sneezing is so cute. And blue looks really good on her. Also in the first pic it looks as if she has really long eyelashes, have they gotten longer since she was born? It seems as Celia's never stop growing. Has Katelyn started teething yet? I believe Celia has, she rubs her teeth and her ears(which is supposedly a sign) , won't eat and is very fussy!! Oh the joys of parentiing. But yet my love just keeps growing stronger for her.I just wish I could take the pain away.
Well talk to you later, and I don't know if I ever said that Sheris shower was really nice. But it was!
