Isaac and Animals at Preschool

Getting Ready

The new week is here and we are getting ready for all that is ahead. Preschool is going to be GREAT this week with baby lambs, baby chicks and a bunny visit! Then we will be having Easter Egg Hunts the last two days since spring break is next week. SOOOO fun!

Eli is still refusing the bottle, so he gets to come on our field trip. It all works out. It would be nice to get him taking the bottle again. We will be trying again, but really I dislike pumping... just one more thing to try and get done. Then I have to clean it all. Too much work. Nursing is just so much easier.

Hannah and Isaac are fully recovered and Eli managed to stay healthy. Yippee! Aaron and I stayed well too.

Aaron is off to school to plan for his week and I just finished planning for preschool. Laundry is waiting and the house could use all kinds of misc. cleaning. We'll see if I get to it or not. I plan on being in bed by 9pm tonight. I've been incredibly tired the past few days and need some extra sleep. Oh, Eli slept for 8 straight hours last night! He went down at 7:30, so he woke up at 3:30, but still!!! I am so excited for a good sleeper. I hope and pray this keeps up!

Refusing the Bottle

Yep, Eli has refused it. Next week the preschool has two filed trips, so I was hoping Eli would take the bottle from Alex and we would be set. So I woke up early this morning to pump. He refused to take it. No interest at all. Stink. We'll try again tomorrow. If he still refuses, either I will nurse right before we leave or he and Alex will be coming along for the ride. He has taken a bottle a couple of times before, so I know he can do it. He's just being a stinker about it. I think he knows I will be out of the building and he doesn't want to miss out on any fun.

Eli had his 3 month pictures taken today. I can't wait to see how they turned out!

Happy in Green

Happy St. Patrick's Day!

Hannah's Love Book

Hannah stayed home from school again today, but is feeling much better and will be back to school tomorrow. While she was home with Daddy today she wrote a book and bound it with tape. It is titled "My Love Book." Each page has a wonderful heart illustration. Here are the word she wrote...

(Page 1) I love my ants and ankls!
(Page 2) I love Mimi and Papa!
(Page 3) I love you Mimi Mrsee and Papa Jon!
(Page 4) I love my famoly! (The heart has the names Isaac, Mom, Dad, Eli, Me)
(Page 5) I love you Isaac!
(Page 6) Eli and Dad and Mom I love you.

This little book is a keeper! What a fabulous daughter we have... so full of love!
