Leg trap

Norah got her legs caught in the crib posts. She is a mover. 

November 30/ December 1st

She slept on her own bed in her room! Yes! 

Tummy to Back

Norah went from preferring to sleep on her tummy to now preferring to sleep on her back. I hope she sleeps all night. I am excited for this new change.

Outdoors

We spent an hour before nap playing outside. I plan to be outside the rest of the afternoon (after nap). I am not pleased with a look ahead in the forecast.  :-) We will enjoy it while we can! 

Wash cloth

Jack still calls a car wash, "wash cloth." 

I have tried to tell him. He will figure it out. 

I remember arguing with my brother that it was called a "mote" and not "remote." I eventually learned. 

Cute to write down for later...

Surgery

My sweet boy is having his tonsils removed on the 11th. Excited for his relief, but not happy with the week long recovery as well as the liquid diet. He has to sleep in our room too. Party of four in our little room. Praying he will be feeling better by Christmas! 

"Whew, mom!"

He said in a loud, sassy southern voice. 

Then, proceeded to tell me we needed to sweep the deck because of all the leaves. 

But, he won't clean up his toys daily. Geez. 

mark it on the calendar

This girl. I put her on her back in the pack n play to go and take care of Jack. When I came back,  she was on her side. She was trying to turn over from her back on her playmate tonight too. Whoa! Slow down! 

The minute I posted this afternoon, he fell asleep..until 5pm. Did she? Nope. She finally fell asleep during our snuggle time during Veggie Tales at 7pm. During his nap,  I still managed to have some great one-on-one time with her and get some chores done. 

Later, we made homemade pizzas for dinner and enjoyed time with Daddy. 

Overall, we had a great school day, nap day (eventually), and play day. Didn't make it on that walk, but maybe tomorrow. 

Coffee and baby

Drinking coffee is good if you have been up since 5:30. Not good if you nurse a baby. Norah has only slept 45 minutes since 5:30 this morning. Happy and hyper baby. And, my son won't nap today. We might go on a walk very soon. I think all of us need some fresh air.

My loves

Fancy Trees

Jack calls trees without leaves Fancy Trees.

Signals

The siblings are already sending signals to each other through their rooms. Norah woke up at 5:30, Jack woke up at 5:40. Both of them decided that would be a great time to start their days. (Eye twitch) 

Time to get some coffee started.

Long Day

Long day and we are all going to bed at 8. 

Peace out. 

MNO

I had a great trip to Newnan with three amazing women. Starbucks in hand, good food in my tummy, and a theater all to ourselves was just what I needed! The movie was interesting, but the dance party afterwards was hilarious! I love Moms Night Out because I am able to really get to know these ladies better and have great conversations. 

And, after getting home later than normal, my daughter so generously slept until 6am again. 

6am

After 4 weeks of waking up in the middle of the night again, she slept until 6AM. 

Even with the cold and rain, I think it is going to be a great day!! 

Thirty-One Spring Premiere

I have gone every year (once in Colorado)  and enjoy seeing the new products and getting a lot of product for free! Plus, I get to run errands by myself afterwards! Win Win afternoon! 

Monthly Dates

I am finally getting around to my "monthly dates" project for my hubby. We will have a date once a month. It could be as inexpensive as free or an overnight trip in the mountains. I have planned out costs for 10 months. Now, just to buy the gift certificates and put them in monthly envelopes. One of them involves zip lining and staying in a glamping teepee! So excited! I think he will like it too! 

Squeaky Daughter

Today marks the day she started high squeals and talking. It is so cute to listen to her verbalize what she is thinking. Her sweet eyebrows go up and down as she talks and her arms wave in the air.

Shopping

I am finally going shopping for transitional clothes. So thankful for a husband that encourages me to go while he watches he kids.
