January

In January we threw a shower for my sister Bon Bon and baby Elizabeth…

kind of hard with the lighting, but this sign says “welcome baby Elizabeth”

this picture cracks me up.  It sums up our lives as mothers perfectly.  Chaos.

 

quilt I made.  I wanted it to be bright and not babyish, but I don’t really like the way it turned out.

Also in January we left BOTH of the boys overnight together with Becca and Melissa and Tommy and I had a date day/night.  We were soooo lame though.  I just consulted my facebook timeline for a reminder of what we did in January and on our day without kids we had our taxes done and went to the library.  Oh, and now I remember that we got pretty crazy and decided to go out for appetizers and a beer at Applebee’s at about 9 pm, which is unheard of :)  Here is Dylan hanging out with Becca and Melissa.

In January Dylan started sleeping in his carseat.  His reflux was really bad at this point and I thought having him upright would help, and I think he really liked the snuggly feeling of being in the carseat.  I believe he continued to sleep in there until… April?  It was a long time, but it worked.

Snuggled in for the night.
