Long story short is that I figured out how to put pictures on our blog again! Yeah! Lots have happened in the past few days and lots of pictures to be shared! It is a bit longer of a process to get our photos on here, but worth it! These pictures are from Thanksgiving Day. No Mommy and Daddy pictures this year....showers are sparse around here. We only pose with deodorant on!
This is our third night in the "big girl bed" for Svea. Dan converted the crib for us after this past weekend when she climbed and hovered over the edge twice. I missed it both times, but unwillingly for us, it was time. She does well at night staying in bed and falling asleep, but nap time the other day took awhile for Dan. Having the monitor helps. Dan said he would call down the hall for her to get back in bed when he'd see her get out of bed and I guess her face and actions were priceless. He said you could see her wheels turning as to how he knew she was out of bed. She scurried right back in. Now we are trying to teach her to stay in her bed when she wakes up until Mommy and Daddy come and get her. Right now she pops up and runs out into the living room, "Svea wake up"! In case this happens and we don't hear her through the monitor we have bells on her door and have all baby gates firmly latched. Paranoid? Overprotective? You would be too if Svea Grace was your daughter as well:)
Kieran rolled over for the first time!!! He rolled from back to front the day after Thanksgiving...I think:) Life is a blur lately:) We thought he would roll back to tummy first because he is so close, but nope. We put him on his tummy and over he went! My Mom got to see a lot of firsts for the kids this past weekend. The children were putting on a show!
Today was/is my birthday! I am 32 and very thankful for my life:) We celebrated this past weekend with cake and gifts. Thank you to my husband and mom for making me feel so special. The best part was just hanging out at home with everyone. Today didn't feel like my birthday because it was a normal day of working, however it was a gift that Dan was home for the evening and we could tackle parenting together. Whew...even with two it's chaotic:) I had many fb messages, texts, emails, phone calls, and love from family and friends! Thank you to everyone! One of the best parts of today was the box of Pirate Treasures (a wheat weakness for me), and flowers from Dan! Thank you especially for thinking about me throughout the whole day. I could tell I was on your mind and that means the most to me:) Dan also taught Svea to say Happy Birthday Mommy and that made me melt every time she said it.
More pictures post to come!
