Friday, May 18, 2006 Jack: Nights are still rough with him waking every few hours. I did have one night of 4 block hours of sleep. Yeah! Jack visited the doctor for his two month. He weighs 15lbs 10oz. WOW!!! No wonder he wakes up every few hours. In two months he has more than […]

He has differentiated between night and day, although he still wakes up at least 4 times a night. Jack is continually gaining weight. He’s enormous.

March 2006
Thursday, March 23, 2006 Jack is two weeks old. He’s more alert now and stays awake at longer intervals. Unfortunately he still wakes often in the night. Last night I probably maxed at 3 hours of sleep. He’s not cute at night when I’m so tired. On Tuesday Jack had his 2 week appointment. He […]

January 2006
Sunday, January 22, 2006 Christmas was good to Isabelle. She got a doll and carriage, a sled, blocks, books, clothes and other toys. She got the idea of unwrapping and was excited by all the gifts under the tree. Most of all though she loved the decorations. Every day she wanted the tree lit and […]

December 2005
Friday, December 16, 2005 We just had our first huge snowstorm of the season – 12″ of light perfect snow. Isabelle loved being out in it. She is walking all the time now. With each day she improves her speed. She attempts to climb things, especially the couch, but she is still unable to do […]

November 2005
Monday, November 27, 2005 Isabelle is walking most of the time. She wobbiles still, and occasionally crawls, but her walking is improving and she’s picking up speed. The bottom eye-teeth are through and very visible. We’re waiting for the top ones, though we’ve had a break for a few weeks now and have glimpsed our […]

October 2005
Monday, October 10, 2005 Well much has happened in the past month. Sadly Isabelle’s grandmother passed away on September 16th. All of us will miss her tremendously. She loved Isabelle so much. Isabelle has begun to walk. She is only taking small steps, but with each day she practices. Many times she stands by herself, […]

September 2005
Thursday, September 8, 2005 Isabelle is going through her terrible two’s now OR at least she’s testing me. If she wants something, she points emphatically, if she doesn’t get it, she schreeches or cries. Sometimes she hangs on my legs. Either I ignore her, distract her, or say NO. What happened to my easy going […]

August 2005
Monday, August 22, 2005 Isabelle is growing suddenly. I think she is going through a growth spurt. She’s still petite, but definitely growing. Her hair is growing too – mostly down the middle front. If you look at pictures when I was small, my hair looked the same. Poor thing. We now put a barrette […]
