Sleep


Adam, singing a song he wrote for Maryanne

Just needed to post this in celebration of how much sleep this adorable little one has been giving me during the night. The last two nights she has gone to bed around 11:30 or 12 and then slept until about 5:30. Isn't that awesome!?! I've never had a baby give me that much sleep at night until around six months when we move the baby out of our room and just let them cry. I'm just so excited that I had to share it with everyone!

Last night my Sarah ate at 10:00 and slept until 5:30. I always thought moms were crazy when they said the first time they slept through the night they spent the whole night checking if they were alive, but guess what I spent the night doing...Sleeping babies are the best! I am glad she is such an angel!

Yeah. I am happy when my soon to be 9 month old will do that.
Seeing as how Maryanne is doing it so early, that's great! I hope she'll keep it up for you!

Yay! Graham will give us one long stretch like that too. I'm hoping he'll take after his brothers (who were sleeping from 9pm until 7am by the time they were two months old) and start sleeping through the night here in a couple of weeks. Maybe she'll do the same for you! I'll pray for ya!

Your baby is adorable and you look fabulous! I just think you are such a wonderful wife and homemaker- you inspire me with your ideas, your creations, your frozen dinners and everything you do. Thank you for using your blog not just for updates, but also to help out those of us that are not as all-together.

I wish Nathan slept well but unfortunately he doesn't and never has. Hopefully we can get the next one a better schedule then he has.

Pink Day

Today I was sifting through all the clothing and pulling out clothes that were stained and torn, as well as clothing the children had outgrown. There was a huge pile of clothing to sort through, and an ever growing pile of clothes to donate.  At one point, I pulled out a pink t-shirt and asked, "Whose is this?" Someone said it was Maryanne's, which couldn't have been true because it was a size 8. It wasn't her color anyway ... So I tossed it in the donate pile. (In hind sight, I now think my mom gave it to Maryanne for Christmas, and she said that she wasn't sure what size to get for Maryanne. Whoops on my part.) That's when Adam exclaimed that he wanted a pink shirt. Other children chimed in with, "It is his color." (Referring to his Dressing Your Truth type.) Adam bolted toward the donate pile and seized the shirt, promptly pulling it over his head and the collared shirt he had on. (Later he removed the collared shirt, after much cajoling from ...

85+ Books!

It's been almost a year since I started keeping track of all the books I've read.  When it's all in a list ... by date ... it really makes me realize how much I read!  I burned through almost a book a day in the month of January: 24 books total ... the greatest number of books in one month!  After compiling the list, I figured I may as well share it with all my friends!  I've organized them by genre/topic ... and now I realize I need to branch out more!  Books I read multiple times this year have asterisks.

My Two Teenagers

As personalities come, these two girls are like night and day. Both are silly at times, and both can be serious at times. And yet, that rarely happens at the same time! We have entered the world of teenagers, and it is quite the dramatic world! My oldest daughter is dealing with all the drama that teenagers bring: ostracism, judging, and feeling friendless. My younger teenager is just full of fun dramatics: silly faces and expressions, acting wonky and crazy, and saying that "everyone is my friend, even their mom and dad!" At any rate, I couldn't be more in love with these two. They fight over their littlest sister ("I get to hold her!"  "You've been hogging her all day!"), fight over who spends more time in the shower ("I do NOT spend an hour in the shower!"), and fight over who gets my MacBook ("She always gets to do her school on your computer!"  "But, all my stuff is on there!").  My world would be quite dramatical...
