Caroline has found her voice

Sunday, December 28th, 2008

And it has hit an ear-piercing tone and decibel level! Not bad for a 10 month old.
It’s cute for about two seconds until it sinks in that it’s a continuous high-pitched scream. For no reason in particular. I really think she likes the sound of her voice. Which is fine. Not much fun when we’re out in public though. It’s more of an “I’m happy but a little bored and want attention” kind of scream than a “ouch” kind of scream.
She was very well behaved at dinner last night (our annual treat to ourselves, this year at The Capital Grille).
Also today, she tore a page out of one of her books for the first time. I would have liked to have read it to her first, but Karen beat me to it.

Did you get a new car for Christmas?

Sunday, December 28th, 2008

I did not, nor was I expecting to or planning to. (Mine’s two years old and in great shape, thanks for asking.)
Based on all those car commercials on TV towards the end of every year, I was wondering if anyone anywhere actually got a new car for Christmas. You know, to truly make it a “December to Remember.”
