First Exercise

I mowed our entire yard and blew the driveway. From yesterday to today, I lost 4 lbs. No joke. That was a great workout. 

25 more lbs to go! Whew!

Sleeping pattern/homeschooling success

My little girl wants to go to sleep for the night at 8pm. She wakes up at 1:30am and between 5-6am. 

I can get my boy into bed between 7-7:30 and then feed her and get her to sleep. I am finally feeling like we got this bedtime down. I am feeling like a new woman. :-)

Next, drop that 1:30 feeding. I will be able to exercise when naptime occurs for the kiddos. 

Other news, homeschooling is going well!  Jackson is enjoying learning the months in the seasons, telling time, and the letter "B" for our letter of the week. We had a scavenger hunt to find "B" items. I could hear him during his naptime naming all the items in his bed and what letter they started with. "Pillow..P." He also tells us what things start with outside the car on our rides. "B...bush." 

My heart was happy knowing he was excited about learning with me as his teacher!

Rocking a bye, um, Mommy

I seriously fell asleep after rocking Norah. Woke up an hour later. Going back to sleep in our own beds. 

I love snuggling with her. 

Night.

Rabbit head

While rubbing her hair gently, we read books together. She loved every minute of it...no prompting. Loving the sibling love.

Great Day

Great church service at our new satellite location in our town! I was one of the photographers. And, our little girl was an angel the entire time. 

Then, I was blessed to photograph a new  little neighbor for his newborn session. I think he was the perfect little subject. 

I made delicious gluten free/dairy free pancakes with blueberries for dinner. (Yes, that combo CAN be yummy)   

And, I am going to bed early in hopes my girl will sleep through the night. I believe in her!!!

10 minutes later

She exploded her diaper so bad it went up her back and past her belly button on her chest. The parking lot of CFA was a great spot to clean up our daughter. :-)

Success

We made it through the post office with without a problem! Score!!!
