I think I’m back!
I really didn’t miss the computer so much while it was gone BUT I do miss recording things about our life right now so I’m going to do some more blogging (I think!). Our wordpress wasn’t cooperating and didn’t let me add any of the new pictures I wanted to share AND deleted most of my first attempt at this post (not a fun comeback to blogging). John took Ethan and Jamie to his mom’s house for the weekend and they’ll be back later today. Its nice splitting the kids up for more time with them individually. One on one would be nice but one on two will have to do!
Here are some recent things in our lives:
- Jillian is 6 months old now! She has 2 bottom teeth, the first she got on Easter and the other was right before she turned 6 months. I have now fed her baby food twice. Last Tuesday she started with rice cereal and today I gave her apples and rice cereal. I don’t rush starting solids and I will miss solely breastfeeding her. I think I’ll start feeding her food about once a day now.
- Jamie has been out of diapers (except for at nap and nighttime) for about 3 months now. She has a few pee accidents most days at home still but is very good about staying dry out in public. She has her first “best friend” at her tiny tots class (a cute girl her age named Greta) and they will be in a 2 day preschool class together in Sept.
- Ben and Ethan are currently in roller hockey and baseball and are really enjoying both sports. We had to say no to a few other sports recently because they want to do everything lately. We are going to let them do YMCA soccer in July/Aug and Jamie will get to do it also. It will be her first sport and she is excited. We will have a kid in each age group of soccer but they will all play the same time and at the same big field so it will work out well.
- John and I are trying to organize the house but its slow going! I am going to do another group garage sale at the church where our preschool is and I look forward to clearing out some more stuff. I decided that the Little People take up way too much space in Jamie’s room and so we are selling all of them. She said yes to it and I already took them out of her room and she is happy to have it clean and to have so much more room to play.

Great post, Heather, I really enjoyed it. Can’t wait to see the pictures. It makes me want to write an update on my family. Would you believe that on occasion, I still miss breastfeeding? (Don’t tell Dylan I said that!) I miss soccer and baseball games, too, but I don’t miss rushing around like a maniac, I’m happy you can get them all to play at the same time. Pat, Mollie and I have spent the winter purging and organizing the house.It’s way cool that Jamie is learning to do it at such an early age.She probably won’t want to keep her room that way when she’s a teen-ager. You guys are building an awesome family, it’s inspiring and hopeful. And it’s really fun to have adult children. I hope we can all meet up some day, MrsFabP
