2010 already

I can't believe it's 2010 already. I remember when it turned 1999 like it was yesterday, dancing in our friend's apartment to Prince and having no responsibilities except for finishing college.

Now I have a little girl with newly pierced ears and another little girl who sleeps in a big-girl bed without railings. Is it real?! Am I ready for them to grow up?!

The answer is no. Plain and simple.

They are funny though. They decided to sleep together in Cami's bed last night (she has a full-size bed now). They were like two little girls having a sleep-over for the first time. It was fun to see them so excited and giggly together, since they normally just fight. :)

Another funny thing is the conversations they have. Here's the funniest I've heard in a long time (it happened yesterday in the car). First, let me give you some background: I hate, HATE, light up shoes (as well as character clothing, like Princess pants, Dora shirts, Barbie shoes, etc...). Sorry if you like them, I'm not judging, but I just can't stand them. :) This was never a real issue with Alaina, but to Cami, it's just horrid. We've also had two deaths in our family recently (one being our dog Boomer). So here it is:

Cami: Jordan (a girl at her school) thinks my shoes are light up shoes.
Me: Well, Jordan's wrong.
Alaina: Yeah Cami, mommy doesn't like light up shoes and won't buy them for us.
Cami: Well, when mommy dies, I'm getting a pair of light up shoes.

I seriously laugh out loud every time I think about this conversation. To think that a 3 1/2 year old can put all that together is amazing. I asked Adam tonight at dinner what he thought Alaina would get if I died... :)

Happy New Year loved ones.
