Thoughts on 'tummy time'

"Mark my words, Mom and Dad. Someday you will pay dearly for this torture you call 'tummy time' "

Drowsy cuddles with Auntie Leigh

Your tiny ears, your tiny nose, your tiny fingers, your tiny toes...

 

I love seeing other people love you. 

Beatrices first easter part 3

Beatrice is one lucky girl. She has such a big family and they all love her so much.
We went to Grandma Pam's and Grandpa Bob's for a second Easter dinner (elastic waistbands required). And Grandma Pam baked a delicious Easter cake with bunnies on top. Shes really in to baking now as part of her new 'Grandma' role and its so sweet.

 

   

 

Grandma Pam gave Bea a stuffed bunny, Bea has since gotten extremely attached to it.







Im so glad I caught this introduction, I am sure there will be a lifelong relationship with that bunny.
   

 So there you have it! Beatrice's first Easter. Happy Easter Beatrice, my little lamb.

Beatrice's first easter, part 2

So I cant decide if I should continue to write this blog as a narrative or change it to more of a letter writing style (like 'dear Bea, today I changed your diaper'...etc). I guess it will just evolve on its own.

So I am quite late with this post. Mostly because we have been working on Beatrice's sleep. That's the thing about babies, their sleep patters impact everything. But some improvements have been made and lately I feel as though I have re-joined the land of the living.  Its amazing how much better you feel when you are sleeping longer than 2 hour stretches. Its a gloomy and overcast spring/summer day today. I love these days. Everything looks green and slightly tropical and the birds are chirping and later, a thunderstorm may happen.

Back to Easter.

After our Easter dinner we walked over to Dairy Queen with the kids and left Bea to hang out with her grandma L. I love taking pictures of my niece and nephews, they are just so much fun and their uninhibited personalities make for the best photographs. Adults would be so much better if we let loose more often, like kids do.

how cute is he?!

 
Tristan is so inquisitive, hes watching the coin dropper and you just know hes trying to figure it out. 

multitasking Would you believe there's a part 3? No wonder I'm so behind!
