Progress Report

I just noticed that this is my 400th post! Wow!

I've been asked for an update on how the xuxa removal process is going. It's going fine I guess. There sure has been a lot more crying at bedtime than we've ever had before, but I suppose it could be worse.

No morning nap for Isaiah anymore. *boo hoo*

Afternoon naptime starts out smoothly, but if Isaiah hears one peep from anything, he's up and no way he's going back to sleep. Asher hasn't been sleeping at naptime, but he's learning to play in his room nicely. I turned off the baby monitor to his room today and that helped.

Bedtime is a bit of a mess still. Isaiah screams. Asher plays obnoxiously. Daylight Savings time is not helping at all since that means it's still light out when they go to bed. We used to rarely hear a peep after putting them in bed at night. The last few days it's been at least an hour of up and down the stairs trying to find some way to soothe whoever is freaking out at that moment.

Morning has been inconsistent. This morning I actually got to sleep all the way until 7. Yesterday I think I first heard them at 5:45. Ick.

So, I suppose it could be worse. Nobody has been waking up in the middle of the night at least. And that's the update.

It's a beautiful day outside today. The first of the flowers finally opened this morning. My Visiting Teachers are coming over. Between us we have 11 kids. So it's a great day to have nice weather since that means we can just all sit outside.

Hey, you coming over Saturday? I was totally hoping to see you Sunday. Hope you can make it.

Not up in the night is awesome! Hopefully they'll phase themselves out of the you-up-and-down the stairs phase--otherwise...

oh my... isn't Isaiah about two now? Paul phased out his morning nap at 8 months and now at 18 months he's phasing out his afternoon nap too.

Sounds like it (was) a lovely afternoon! I hope you enjoyed it!
