Na Na nana Na Na nana...

We are just about packed up and ready to go to see Elmo!! Wahoo!! Lily has been crazy excited. Each night she goes to bed and asks "Elmo, morrow?" Santa brought her an Elmo stuffed animal for Christmas that she has been carrying all over the house. Today she even dressed him in one of her princess dresses! Complete with shoes, and bloomers! She has also been singing the Elmo song non-stop. I also have finally gotten great video of her doing this.. also below.

Tomorrow we have running around to do to finish up. My sister and her boyfriend are going to come to house/puppysit for us. Which is nice for the dogs. I have had to swear to her that there have been no more bat problems! And, yes thankfully Bruce has found a new place to live. I am still holding my breath as I turn in lights in the house at night!

As far as packing up, let's just say I am happy it is only for a few days we are going. Four people need a lot of things for just a few days. Chris and I are simple, couple shirts/shorts, underwear and we are pretty much set. The girls, well, I like to be prepared. Charlotte has been doing better again with the spit up since she has been feeling better, but you never know. I take more outfits that fall into the category of 'just in case' then anything else. Lily is older and normally can be in one outfit for the day, but there again we are going to be 2 1/2 hours from home so - better safe then sorry. Long story short 90% of what the own is now packed! FOR TWO DAYS!! :-)
Beyond the clothes, they have a lot of stuff! Bottles, toys, diapers you name it. I have found the best way not to forget anything is to think of a normal day. I start at wake-up and follow it through to bed. That really makes it easier.

My goal is to have everything done tomorrow before Chris gets home. That way Friday morning can be smooth and easy.
