- The nanny did leave us for a new job. We tried to find a new nanny, but being in the far reaches of the suburbs is not a hotbed for nannies. So, we're sending the girls back to the hoity-toity daycare that E and A used to attend!
- So far, the new situation is going well. The girls have asked me to pick them up later because they have fun and they haven't complained about getting up and out the door earlier than usual.
- Char-baby also seems to like her new classroom. One of Char-baby's teachers actually was A's teacher back in the day. She talks about how similar they are...in that they are both happy and easy going and they love to eat.
- What I miss most about the nanny the fact that she did the girls laundry and unloaded the dishwasher.
- Also the fact that Char-baby made it a whopping 6 days at daycare before getting her first ear infection. And the amount of snot that continuously pours out of her nose is DISGUSTING.
- Char-baby has started to walk. She still has to pull up on something to get to standing, but she can go fairly long distances on her own two feet.
- I still have 15 pounds of baby weight to lose. At first, I was hoping to lose it by 9 months (you know...9 months on, 9 months off)...then I figured it would be gone by the time Char-baby turned 1. Seeing as she turns 1 on Sunday, that's not going to happen.
- John and I are going on an 10th anniversary trip at the end of April/beginning of May. I actually need to get cracking on those last 15 pounds.
- E asked me if the Easter Bunny was real. Apparently, Emily H.'s sister told her that the Easter Bunny was really her parents. I stammered through a response and she seemed convinced...but we shall see.
- E needs 4 baby teeth pulled now (and probably 4 more in June) by order of the orthodontist. He has described her adult teeth as "a log jam" in that 2 adult teeth have come back and filled the space where she lost 3 baby teeth.
- A's teeth seem to be even more of a concern than E's. When I described them to the orthodontist at E's last appointment, he told her to bring them BOTH in for June appointments.
- My dental insurance covers 50% of all orthodontia. This is worth putting up with the 45 minute - 1 hour commute alone.
- I still love me some Instagram. Here are some pictures I've taken since the last time I posted.

Ugh on all of the orthodonture. But it sounds like everything else is going well. Your girls sure know how to roll with the punches! Hope to see you soon.
