Lo Hicimos / We Did It

Este fin de semana fue demasiado agotador. Pero, lo más importante fue que terminamos la compra de obsequios,síííííí. Lo más que me impresionó fue que aunque había bastante gente en el centro comercial se podía caminar sin tropezar con otras personas y las filas no eran para nada largas, de verdad que no lo pude creer.

Ahora lo próximo que sigue es hornear galletas, bizcochitos y posiblemente comprar la casita de gengibre y hacerla con las niñas. Lo que significa que serán días para comer mucha azúcar,jaja. Es bueno pasar por estas aventuras y brindarle a las niñas otras experiencias que además nos servirán para establecer nuestras propias tradiciones.

Les deseo una hermosa semana.

FELIZ NAVIDAD



PS: Mi regalo de Navidad # 21 es: Planificación



This weekend was too exhausting. But, the most important thing is that we finished purchasing of gifts, yesssss. What impressed me most was that although there was a lot of people in the shopping mall we were able to walk without bumping on other people and the lines were not too long, truly that I could not believe it.

Now the next thing I want to do is bake cookies, cupcakes and possibly a little gingerbread house with the girls. This means that this will be days with a lot of sugar, haha. It is good to have these experiences and to offer the girls new ones that maybe will help us establish our own traditions.

Have a beautiful week.

Annie


MERRY CHRISTMAS

Aloha Friday!!!!!!!!

In Hawaii, Aloha Friday is the day that we take it easy and look forward to the weekend. So I thought that on Fridays I would take it easy on posting, too. Therefore, I’ll ask a simple question for you to answer. Nothing that requires a lengthy response.

My answer is:

My girls want a swingset, skates, dolls, and everything else they see on t.v.,hahaha.

Agenda de Navidad / Christmas Agenda

Tareas de esta semana eran:

1. Planifica la cena de Nochebuena y Navidad. De ser posible realiza la compra de los alimentos necesarios para ambos días. - La compra está hecha pero aún no sabemos si saldremos en Nochebuena. Por lo menos Navidad queremos pasarlo en nuestro hogar.

2. Termina las compras (de ropa y regalos) y empaca los regalos (no querrás pasar la Nochebuena empacando regalos mientras otros se divierten).- Lamentablemente, las cosas pendientes para comprar tendrán que esperar al fin de semana, aún estamos mejorando.

3. Procura mantener todo limpio y organizado (esto es requisito). No olvides que en esta época hay personas que se distinguen por visitar sin antes avisar. - Listo

4. Finaliza los detalles para la Nochebuena y Navidad. - Casi listo

Las tareas para la próxima semana:

1. Mantener la casa limpia y organizada.

2. Hornea galletas, bizcochos o cualquier otro postre.

3. Visita el salón de belleza para arreglar tu cabello y hacer ese cambio que quieres.

4. Mímate haciéndote un facial, una pedicura, manicura, en fin disfruta de estos días sin tensiones ya que hemos trabajado muy duro en el último mes y medio.

Disfruta de las fiestas sin tensiones.

Annie

Tasks for this week:

1. Plan dinner for Christmas Eve and Christmas. If it's possible buy the necessary food for both days. - Not sure what we are going to do but my grocery shopping is done.

2.Finish purchasing (clothes and gifts) and wrap the gifts (you will not want to spend Christmas Eve packing gifts while other are partying).- We need to do some last minute shopping this weekend because we were sick.

3. Try to maintain all clean and organized (this is a requirement). Do not forget that in this season there are people that visits without notice. - Done

4. Finish the details for Christmas Eve and Christmas. - Almost done

Next week tasks:


1. Maintaining the house clean and organized.

2. Bake cookies, biscuits, muffins or any another dessert.

3. Visits the beauty salon to fix your hair and to make that change that you want.

4. Spend time on yourself without spending money: a facial, a pedicure, manicure, in short enjoy these days without stress since we have worked very hard in the last month and a half.

Enjoy the holidays without tensions.

After one month, I had the opportunity to search in my recovered files (you know that I lost my last computer) so now I have the chance to play along again with Cheryl at Twinfatuation.


Here is a picture of the girls First Christmas. Of course, Paola was not happy as you can see,ha.

Enfermos Otra Vez / Sick Again

Desde el pasado jueves, todos en la casa estamos nuevamente con catarro. Pero, por supuesto que la peor parte siempre la llevan las niñas, especialmente Paola. Lo único bueno es que hasta ahora (toco madera) esta comiendo.

Luego de varios dias enfermos (a pesar de que no lo parece en la foto con Santa Claus) y para variar un poco decidimos salir a comer y luego comimos helado. Allí Paola se cayó y se dió un golpe en su cara. La nariz está roja, se cortó la encía con los dientes y la parte de arriba del labio está hinchada. Lo único ventajoso de eso fue que al parecer el golpe le quitó el gotereo nasal que tenía,ja.

En otros temas, quiero agradecerle a Missy Two Little Monkeys por regalo tan bonito que le envío a las niñas. Missy, las nenas están super contentas con el adorno del árbol e inmediatamente lo colocaron en el. La postal de Navidad esta preciosa, gracias. Eres una amiga increíble y muy especial.

Feliz Martes

Annie

Since last Thursday, we are all with the cold, again . And the worst part is always when the girls are sick, especially Paola. The only good thing is that up to now she is still eating well.

After various sick days (in spite of the fact that it does not seem like that in the photo with Santa Claus) we decide to leave home to eat and ice cream. There Paola fell and hit her face. Her nose is red, cut her gums with her teeth and her upper lip got swollen. The only positive thing of that was that apparently the blow removed her nasal congestion, ha.

In other themes, I want to thank Missy from Two Little Monkeys for her pretty gift that she sent for the girls. "Missy, the girls are very happy with the tree decorations and immediately placed them on the tree. The Christmas postcard was precious, thanks. You are a very special and incredible friend.

Happy Tuesday

Annie
