Evette is loving School - as am I! She is learning a lot - academically and socially - it's wonderful. It's a great bunch of kiddos and mommies.
Garden is growing! Loving gardening during this second season - the weather is getting cooler and it's raining more - less work/sweat for me :)
Date nights! We were lucky enough to score some tickets to the Greater Dallas Youth Symphony - amazing! These kids are seriously amazing. What a lovely evening!
A couple of our friends have had babies recently and Evette is in love. She loves babies! She loves holding their hand, giving snuggles, and making sure they're happy.
Ours is growing...and growing... and growing! 31 weeks tomorrow! [this pic was at 30 weeks]
Google video chats with the Daddy - they like to use the google effects while chatting :) [please ignore my tired face and hair... end of the day...]
Being 2 is hard.
Hanging out with friends....
Story times with Daddy
Sugar cookies with Mommy
And saying Adios to the pacifier! It's been about a week now and she's doing pretty great! Before with the pacifier she would climb into bed with no fights and went down quickly and easily. Now, she doesn't love going down as much, but only cries for a couple minutes and it's dying down. It's hard to grow up.
I HATE! taking away the pacifier! With my second I didnt take it away until he was almost 2 1/2 (which is later than I normally would) I was SO not looking forward to it, but my bishop at the time (and a child development teacher at BYUI) told me he just slowly clips a little of the pacifier off at a time until there's hardly anything and then they throw it away because its "broken". Worked SOOO well! But he continued to try to suck on it until there wasnt hardly anything to keep it in his mouth!
ReplyDeleteAlso you are SUPER cute pregnant! and Congratulations!
We tried that method and she FREAKED out....like scary hysterical. It turns out going cold turkey worked better for her.
DeleteThanks :)
Loved looking through this, and yes the paci thing can be excruciating. Madie was so attached, and she just went to her thumb when the paci was gone. I didn't know you were expecting, congrats!
ReplyDeleteThanks! :)
