In other news - we had a wedding anniverary ourselves. Five years! We had a nice dinner at Morton's to celebrate. Matt is working third shift these days and it has disrupted our routine to some extent - so it was good that we were able to make it out.
Our friend Sandy hosted a really nice Thanksgiving dinner - with Americans and friends of Americans alike. We brought the girls because they should see what Thanksgiving is (and Charlotte approved with her "this house is really nice!"). Charlotte was focused on the cake but did manage to eat some turkey (that we dubbed 'chicken' in an effort to make it more marketable to her). Sophia ate nothing but air and cranberry sauce (I hacked the sauce from dried cranberries -and it was pretty good but a tad sweet even with some lemon juice diffusion). The girls did have cake (red velvet, yum) and a multitude of other lovely desserts. I was shocked to learn how regional red velvet cake was in the US.
Sophia is talking a lot - I don't remember Charlotte being so understandable before two (today she said the word other which took me aback). She is also being naughty - today she asked to go upstairs then downstairs then upstairs and then downstairs - I did not let her go back downstairs the last go around as I needed to get some things done.
Charlotte has memorized the entire "Olivia and the Missing Toy" book. It is rather impressive. We got a video of it that I will post next week.
Charlotte also is telling us, "If you need to get in touch with me, you can call me on Facebook." Where does she come up with these things?
