Busy, busy, busy. Ivy is doing well, but having formula vomit issues. We had to stop breastfeeding after she started biting me hard enough to draw blood. :( I was very depressed about it at first, but I've resigned myself. She is growing by leaps and bounds. I am so lucky! She goes down about 8pm and sleeps all night. Unfortunately, she gets up around 6:30am...I can live with that. At ten weeks, she can hold her head up, roll over, and wiggle around in a complete circle. This is going to be an early milestone baby.
Amber is enjoying her summer, but wants to go back to school. We've been working on letters and numbers so that she will be ready; she can wright her name. :) Her fifth birthday party (my little pony theme as the craze du jour) is scheduled for the 28th of this month. I found a non-violent pony pinata so that there will be no fear of wacking bats. She has dance camp next week and is really looking forward to it.
We finally have it scheduled! July 8th. We're having a formal portrait made of the 5 generations of first-born daughters. Big Mamaw, Mamaw, Mamma, me, & Amber are all really excited. Yes, we really do call her Big Mamaw. Big Papaw passed about ten years ago.
I'm doing well. The diet is going so-so, but I'm working on it. Scrapbooking is the word of the day. I've got a sight obsession going and e-bay is definately my friend. I made e's scrapbook last fall, but I didn't really get overly into it then. About a month ago, I just became entranced by layouts and paper. Actually, I think it was the Paper Flowers that did me in. Notice the caps and the implied reverence. I love paper flowers.
My current goal is to update twice a week or more.
