Another baby update.

Sorry, no new pictures.  I will get some more soon.  I’ve been so consumed with sleep issues lately that I have not been taking pictures.  Will is sleeping wonderfully at night.  I could not ask for anything better!  He goes down by 10:00 (sometimes earlier, like last night-7:30), and will usually sleep between 7 and [...]

Sleep update.

Sunday morning I awoke at 6:30, after about 8 hours of sleep, realizing that I hadn’t heard Will all night. I went to check on him, and he was still asleep. He slept until 7:45, which was almost 9 hours after I had put him down the night before. I was shocked. We hadn’t done [...]

Dance class photos.

Doesn’t this look like the most girly thing you’ve ever seen?  Elise is still loving dance class and improving each time.    She is also enjoying school.  Even her numbers, which she sometimes gets frustrated with, are improving.  Today, she wrote out her numbers to 30 with barely any hesitation.  When she made one mistake, [...]

Big sister, little brother.

OK, here is a cute picture that I just had to share: By the way, Elise and I started doing preschool again on Monday.  She is really enjoying it.  Her favorite subject is crafts, her most challenging is writing her numbers.  Here is something we did together for craft time.  Elise did the purple horse [...]

Sleeping through the night, and other accomplishments.

Well, Will slept through the night Sunday night. Although that requires some definition. (I remember when I was a new mom how upset and surprised I was to find out that “sleeping through the night” could be as little as six hours!) Will was fussy until midnight, but once he went down after midnight, slept [...]

Elise’s First Day of Dance.

Elise began dance lessons today. She is in the preschool jazz and tap class at Rythm & Shoes in Tontitown. Here she is in her ballet shoes for jazz. She told me after the class that it was a lot of fun. When I asked which was her favorite part, she said “all of it!” [...]
