A few things

1. Peyton's version of I don't know is "I can't know."
2. Peyton has mastered the art of voice inflection and uses it appropriately. Dad asked her to get him something today and she responded with "uh, okkkkkay." Hilarious.
3. Rob just got back from a 12 day around the world tour (well, the Pacific Rim at least.) He'll have to update all the countries he visited, but some of them were Cambodia, Bangladesh, Maldives and Singapore. Peyton really enjoyed saying Cambodia. (I say get back, but that means to Hawaii. He won't be home to Fayetteville until April.)
4. Bristol is starting to really understand things. She now totally gets Go Bye Bye and walks to the door to move the handle.
5. We're still waiting to hear what's next for us as a family. Rob hasn't heard if he's been accepted to the fellowship in DC. In the meantime, his boss has asked him to stay at Bragg as the S3 and delay ILE for another year. I'm really torn. Part of me wants to go to DC because it would be a nice change of pace and something new and exciting, but the other side me is really comfortable with my life here and it would be nice to have Rob around to do the "normal" things we do everyday (preschool, ballet, basketball, the lake, etc.)
6. I signed Peyton up to play basketball and I'm going to be her coach. This should be very interesting. She's pretty pumped.
7. Work is going well - I'm juggling more balls then any human should be allowed to juggle.
8. Trying to refinance both houses (by myself.) Rob has helped in the decision of which interest rate is best for us, but it's still a lot to do with my Power of Attorney. Eh!
9. The girls are constantly fighting. There are nights that I might as well wear black and white because all I do is referee. I hope it gets better when Bristol is a little older and can communicate better.
10. Christmas is right around the corner. I've done most of the shopping for the girls, but I'm blank for everyone else on my list. I've even thought about what Rob can get for the girls. I'm going to have him buy two Hallmark books that he can read the stories and it records his voice. The girls will love it.
11. Bought the girls "Elf on the Shelf" and Peyton named our Elf Sara. So, Sara flew to the North Pole last night and was in a new place this morning. Peyton thought that was pretty cool. We'll see if Mommy can keep up with it since it requires moving the Elf every night. Oh, and, Peyton sleeps with me (yea, I am lazy and just can't muster up the energy to take her upstairs every night. We're going to save that for when Daddy gets home.)
12. I've booked a session with Brittany to do the girls Christmas pictures. I can't wait. Now I need to find dresses - matching OF COURSE!

I hope everyone out there is doing well!!! Thanks to Facebook I'm pretty sure I know you all are!
