I hope everyone is enjoying the new year… not too long now before it’ll be February and then it’s not a new year anymore! My resolutions (organizing my pictures as I upload them and posting a picture a day on the website) are still going strong. Four weeks in and I haven’t missed a day yet.
This week was mostly fun. We started our toddler gym class again and LiliBee is excited to be able to participate. Now that she’s a better walker, she can almost keep up with the other kids when it comes to chasing the balls around or jumping on the trampoline. CareBear even convinced her to climb into the big foam pit. CareBear is an expert at the obstacle course now and even participated in circle time for a few minutes (she’s never been too interested in sitting still for long).
Chris had his second swimming class and, despite his predictions, has not actually drowned yet. He’s doing really well, actually, and I’m glad that he’s learning before the girls do!
LiliBee decided that one molar wasn’t worth the discomfort, so she’s getting the other three too. Poor kid is pretty uncomfortable sometimes, but all four have broken through now so I’m hoping it gets better soon. She’s only really cranky about it when she’s tired, but her poor fingers get a lot of chewing.Â
CareBear spent another week inside her “tent” in the living room. She likes to have her snacks in there and even invites LiliBee or the cat to join her. I complain sometimes about not being able to walk through the room (between the “tent” and the “playground”, sometimes I have to take a shortcut over the couch to get to my computer), but it’s too much fun watching them play to stop her.
We got some good stuff done this weekend… Chris put in the shower in our master bathroom so I was able to have a shower in my own bathroom for the first time in over a year! It’s practically a functional bathroom now. We also spent some time reorganizing the kitchen. It’s nice to feel productive.
