Things have been going pretty good for us since we got back from WA. It took some getting used to at first because I was so used to having an extra set of hands to help. We have gotten back into our routine and that feels nice. Most days I try to get us to the park or somewhere outdoors by 9:00am because if not it gets too hot. Living on the sun makes it hard to be outside, lol! If I time it just right we can play at the park while Phoebe sleeps in the sling. Yesterday we were there for 1.5 hours before it got too hot. In the afternoons we usually try and get together and have a play date with my friend Merrie and her daughters, Gracie and Olivia. We try and keep each other sane and I am not sure what I would do without her. I haven't mentioned it yet to Merrie's husband but I am thinking of asking him to move where we move next May when we leave TX. I am sure he wouldn't mind relocating his family. That isn't asking too much, right?
Dallas update: This kid is cracking me up more and more. Yesterday I sneezed and he said, "Bless You Mommy" Of course I have been saying this to him everytime he sneezes but I have never prompted him to say it to me. It was hilarious! He is still working hard at learning the words to some songs. It seems to be his new interest and I will catch him singing to himself ever so softly and just kind of mumbling the words. I don't think he realizes that I can hear him but it sure is cute. He is usually pretty sweet to Phoebe. He gives her random kisses when no one is looking and I think that is so sweet. He still can't say her name well and calls her BeBe Joy. I think is is cute!
Phoebe update: Well, I am sure you saw on my other posts that she is laughing and now rolling both ways. It seems so early for me and I am afraid that my little baby is growing up too fast. As for her size, well she is just a tiny peanut. We had her 4 month checkup this week and she only weighs 10lbs 11oz (less than 5%) and 24.5in (50%). The doctor was a little concerned with the lack of weight gain but I am not worried yet. I am trying to nurse her more but I already feed her on demand so I can't force her to eat. I think that she is just a tiny peanut that burns calories with all her moving around. Her legs and arms are never still. We also are taking her to a pediatric opthamologist for a check on one of her eyes. Overall, she is perfect in my eyes and that is all that matters!
Some pics!
