Ah, The Year Draws To A Close

After Dolly left to go home for Christmas, Natalia's routine changed and she was not at all happy.  She became very clingy and wouldnt let me move. I had to literally hold her the whole time otherwise she screamed like a banshee. For almost a week I couldnt do any cleaning or tidying up.... it was very trying.  Loren advised that I do some pressure point work on her and it seems to have worked a bit.....

Natalia is also talking much more.  She says Ca for Ta and Bis for Biscuit.  She still doesnt call me Mommy, but Daddy instead. She says Up, Car, Home, Go, Come, Juice, Cheese, Bubbles. She is just so damned cute! 

So tonight is Christmas Eve and I am fetching my Mother from the airport soon, yay!!
Tomorrow morning will be an early exiting one.  Natalia will be more aware of what's happing. Last year she was only 5.5 months old.  Cant wait.....
