An update

Today Abigail turns 6 weeks old. We have enjoyed everyday we have had with her. She is such a sweet little girl. She is weighing in at 10.2 lbs (on the home scale with me holding her). She is still sleeping more in my bed with me than anywhere else. This will soon change as we help her adjust to life in her own crib! She only likes the swing for short amounts of time. Her preferred place is snuggled in somebody's arms. Micali has been a great help and doesn’t mind holding her while I get things done around the house.

Elijah at just over two is weighing in at 29.6 lbs. He is quite active and couldn’t be happier that SPRING is on its way. We can hardly keep him inside. Even if he can’t go outside right away he likes to wear his shoes and jacket in hopes of making a speedy get away if the door is open. We moved him to a toddler bed last week and surprisingly it was an easy adjustment. The first night he realized his freedom and came out roaming the house but since then has decided sleep is better then a dark lonely house. He has started talking a lot more and putting words together. My latest favorites are “hold her?” and “baby Abby”. He is a great big brother most of the time. On occasion he will rock her chair a little too rough or push her swing a little to fast but overall tries to be sweet and gentle with her.

 

Micali at 3 and a half has finally broken 30 lbs. This morning  she weighed 30.4 lbs. She loves singing and dancing. She loves making up little songs and sings to Abigail or her stuffed animals. She has adjusted well to being a big sister x2 and helping out.  She is LOVING her big twin bed and always tells me it is so comfortable.
