Ava is 1 Month Old

Our little ladybug turned a month old yesterday and she treated her grateful Mommy to 3 full hours of sleep twice in the same night. Some people may think that still sucks but after a month of waking up every hour and a half and staying up for at least thirty minutes....it was awesome!! I feel like a new woman.

We're Getting There.....

We are finishing up week two of taking care of our two little people. Daddy went back to work this week so I am flying solo. It has been interesting to say the least. Ava has been sleeping good and is pretty easy going with the exception of one day when she seemed to be possessed by demons and spent most of day crying!



















As a result Jordan had thoughts of moving out in hopes that Mr & Mrs Potato Head will take him in.
After that day passed Jordan and I spent some time together baking a Spongebob and Patrick cake that he tried to eat with every meal.

Since our little Ava's early arrival we've been trying to get back to normal....whatever that means from now on. James has been busy decorating the house and yard for Christmas. We even managed to make our day after Thanksgiving tradition of getting the tree up.

Jordan is enjoying being a big brother. He loves helping out and giving his baby sister kisses. We started back on his preschool curriculum since he will be home with me for a while. He loves our one on one time while Ava's sleeping. I get plenty of " I love you Mommy" during this time.

Ava has to be the best baby ever. She rarely cries and smiles when she sleeps. Unlike her big brother at this age she doesn't mind being put down even though we can't seem keep her out of our arms. I don't even mind waking up with her during the night. We get a chance to chat while everyone is asleep.
