*Jonathan slept through the night for the first time last night!! He was in his crib in the boys' room and slept from 9-6:15! It was wonderful and the first full night's sleep for both AW and me since early December.
Jonathan all wrapped up and cozy in his crib!
*Joshua's vocabulary has exploded in recent weeks and he talks all the time! Yesterday at dinner AW said, "I can even understand most of what he says now!" :) It's fun to see him try and do the things that Jackson can do--they play fairly well together, most of the time! :)
All three boys in a fort that AW built!
*After struggling to get out of credit card debt for a while, we have finally paid off another card!! Hooray!! Now we only have one more card which still has a balance on it! Hopefully in a month or two we can wipe that out!!! We are so excited!!
*Something not so great...Jackson puts up such a fight when he knows it's a school day. It took him about 25 minutes to get dressed this morning. He was so sad knowing he had to go to school. He used to love being at school, but not so much anymore!! I talked to his teachers this morning and they did admit that he has had a harder time adjusting since being back there and it's also hard because he only goes one day a week. As a mom, I don't like to see my little boy sad. As a teacher, I know how fun school is and how important for some of those early skills, not to mention the social aspect of things. I am torn on what to do. Next week are parent-teacher conferences, and for the first time, I get to be on the parent side of things!! We'll see what his teachers say, but we're leaning toward keeping him home with us for a while. (PS. I picked him up early today at 11:30 and he told me he had a great time--maybe half-day preschool is the way to go for him).
Jackson's proud of his art project at pre-school. Ms Berger, his teacher, and Makenna, his best buddy, are in the background.
*It's official... I will be home another semester! I turned in my official letter last week to extend my maternity leave. This may not be the best time to do that and we're not sure how it's all going to financially work out in the fall, but three kids in full-time daycare just costs too much!! I will probably have to find some part-time work, which may not be easy in this economy! Better start now!
*Last weekend was super fun and I haven't even had a chance to blog about it. Since my birthday brunch got cancelled a few weeks ago, my fabulous husband decided to re-schedule it, but didn't tell me! We were going to have brunch at Krista's house, which we have done lots of times, so I didn't think anything of it! It wasn't until I was asked to get the door and saw my sister's family there, that I started to realize what was going on!! It was so sweet!! I felt so loved to have friends and family there to celebrate my 30th birthday!! So far being 30 is pretty fabulous!!
