Thomas Figures Out How To Use a Cup.

Eating cereal has taken a few tries, but now he's getting the hang of it.

What did we do without you?

You got up twice last night, but these morning smiles always make me feel refreshed.

Girls & Boys

 

 It has been funny this year watching Seamus and Finn develop friendships with some special girls in their classes. Finn's buddy Liv moved out of Nativity Parish mid year and there were tears shed on and off for weeks.  She made a surprise visit during her new spring break and Finn came home with a huge smile on his face. 

 

Seamus had a play date two weeks ago with Marina, a new friend this year.  She's sweet, smart and very tomboyish. Seamus totally adores her.

 

Becca is another girl that both the boys play with - she's in Finn's class though a head taller than almost everyone.  She's wild and loud and lots of fun. We saw her playing outside on the walk home yesterday and had a little visit.

 

I love that the girls the boys are choosing to spend time with have big personalities, confidence and a sense of fun.  I think that bodes well for their futures.

Morning Bath!

Thomas's first food.

Seamus Home Sick

We had a little scare on Easter Monday.  All our plans for the last day of vacation, the park, biking dinner with friends etc were derailed by Seamus have a strange bout with allergies.  I ended up having to bring him in to the doctor because he just couldn't catch his breath. After a nebulizer, some prednisone and a prescription for an inhaler, we were on our way.  Seamus told that doctor (by the time I actually got him in to the clinic, he was feeling much better) "I'm sure after a good night's sleep, I'll feel even better than 100%". 

Seamus, as much as you had me worried - you always know how to make me laugh.
