Sick little Sable

Sable is feeling awful, she looks sick too. She has a cold AND she's teething at the same time. My poor little stuffed up baby. We have a pot of water with cinnamon and peppermint boiling, Vicks vapor rub on her and a special bottle of juice, water, children's vitamins and a teething tablet all mixed together. We're tucked in on the couch watching "Clifford, The Big Red Dog". She's been sick for a day or two. I hope it goes away soon. Sounds like a lot of people are sick right now.

Name meanings

Your first name of Sable has given you a responsible, expressive, inspirational, and friendly personality.

Expression comes naturally to you and you are rarely at a loss for words; in fact, you have to put forth effort at times to curb an over-active tongue.

Self-confidence has made it easy for you to meet people and you are well-liked for your spontaneous, happy ways.

You sincerely like people and do not often experience loneliness; your work and home-life are likely filled with association
Although the name Sable creates the urge to be reliable and responsible, we emphasize that it frustrates you through a scattered and emotional nature.

NO!

Today we saw Sable, for the first time, shake her head "no" in answer to a question. It was pretty cute.

Good News!

In January, I'm starting a job at Chatter Creek Winery. It's 1-2 days per month with a small staff and incredible wine! I'm so excited! I still need to find a full time job for some income but I'm VERY happy to be at this winery!

Nap time

... I guess she's not in the mood for a nap right now

I love seeing her do new things! Look at her trying to escape!

Milestones & Minions

Milestones
She's cruising more confidently, even over rough terrain like throw pillows and can now go from standing to sitting. She's also pulling up to stand on a verity of things.

Go Sable Go!

Sable can Climb!
Today, Sable went from sitting on the floor to sitting on the sofa, all by herself. Joel saw her pulling on the sofa to stand up but didn't see her climb on top (he was in the kitchen making their lunch). These milestones are starting to happen fast!

Shhhh...!

So sweet!

Here comes Christmas

The tree is up and working as a toddler magnet! Decorations are out, presents are (mostly) bought and wrapped. Time to start baking!

What's up

We saw Harry Potter Part 1 last night. It was Awesome! Thank you to Grandma Jackie and Grandpa Keith for babysitting. Keith also helped Joey fix our cars headlights this morning (Double Thanks Keith!).
We have half our Christmas shopping done (all of the kids!) and Joey set up the Christmas tree though the lights gave him some grief.
I've lost a few pounds thanks to my seasonal job at Macy's...just in time for sweater season!

Can you believe it's December? 2010 is almost over!
