signs of spring

splashing fun

It's too rainy to walk or go to the park, but we took advantage of a short break in the rain to do some splashing.

3 weeks now

Miss Emily is now 3 weeks old and getting cuter by the day. She is awake more and more and she makes the funniest faces and noises to the entertainment of all :) Adjusting to life with a toddler and a newborn has it's moments. Evenings are still rough because Anika's bedtime is Emily's fussy time. Eric is working the swing shift now so he works 4pm until the wee hours of the morning. Anika is getting her last 2 year molar so she's been a little cranky at times. She'll say owie and pull my finger into her mouth to chew on. Her potty training regressed a little when Emily arrived, but we're back on track with that now. Our wonderful neighbor took pictures of all of us yesterday. I am looking forward to seeing all of the photos, especially after the preview she posted on her blog here


Both of my girls are asleep now so I had better wash up the dishes and get to bed while I can :) Here is a little thing I put together today during nap time.
