April 6, 2009

I am midway through my 19th week of pregnancy. I’m a terrible pregnant mom. But the real deal is that I’ve just been exhausted. It’s a lot more draining being pregnant at 38 than it was at 23. Yeesh!

Sunday evening and the meaning of Will

Over the weekend Sophia really rolled up her sleeves and decided she was going to take on some extra chores to help out around the house. Dave and I were so impressed and touched by her initiative that we decided a treat run to Toys R Us was in order. So last night we all [...]

35 weeks, Sophia the navigator

Light weight champ

I’m sitting here with Will, who is studying my face, scanning up and down, left to right. He stops about once a minute to shoot me a huge grin which absolutely makes me melt. I’ve even heard the beginnings of a laugh. He’s started to coo in sentences. Just a soft little “aah—ahh–ahh–ahh” like he [...]

2 months old today.

Sweet Baby Will, You’ve been with us for 2 months already. Time moves too fast. We are all so in love with you. Your big sisters are constantly doting. Tonight Sophia read 2 books to you before bed. My heart just glowed looking at the two of you curled up on the floor, you cooing [...]
