Christmas Presents 2011
Christmas snowman
On Christmas Eve Cesar built a snowman. Eli wasn't that interested until the next day when they added the eyes, hat, nose, etc.
The snow wasn't cooperating very well, so Cesar had to use water to make it hard and stay in balls.
When I walk down the stairs I can see the snowman out the window and it makes me happy. Two days later it is still standing strong, I'm not sure when it will melt.

Neighbors
I really miss our neighbors from Chamber Ridge Townhouses.
We moved in with my parents the last weekend of October. We plan on buying a house in Stapleton in April or May and in the meantime we are staying in Parker with my parents. We rented our townhouse out.
The weekend before Christmas we took some cookies to our old neighbors and Eli sang "We wish you a Merry Christmas". They all really appreciated it and it was nice to be back in the old neighborhood.
I missed having my annual Neighbor Dessert Party, but this was our substitute for this year. Hopefully I can have another party next December in Stapleton.
Diego at 21 months
Diego is 21 months now and talks more and more each day. Here are some of the words he knows:
car, truck, bus, boat, mommy, papi, po-po (for a dirty diaper), pee-pee, milk, more, please, bowl, cereal, juice, apple, honey, pop-up (for toast or waffle that pops up from the toaster), candy, cookie, Greta, Ivaras, no, yes, ka (for thank you), ball, book, Melmo (for Elmo from Sesame Street), cho-cho (for train), bird, moon...
I'm sure there are more, but these are the ones that come to mind at the moment.
Diego has done really well in nursery in our new ward. He doesn't cry much and is happy to go have his snack and play with toys.
He cries, or rather complains, a lot. He knows what he wants and lets me know when he is unhappy. It is quite annoying and taxing day after day, but I try to have patience.
He is still a good napper and sleeps around 2-3 hours in the afternoon. He goes to sleep at 7 p.m. (same time as Eli) and they both sleep until 7 a.m. He likes to take baths and doesn't not like to get his diaper changed. He likes to brush his own teeth and doesn't like it as much when we try to help him.
He loves Thomas the train books. Each time we go to the library he picks a couple of them out to take home. He also likes watching Elmo and go Diego go on TV.
Diego loves playing with cars.
