"This little piggy"




Here is a picture of Janna playing "This little piggy" with Simon. She is going to teach him lots of things. She is a good big sister and proud of her baby brother.

Lesson learned

Janna sometimes puts her feet on the coffee table while eating. Or she will lay or sit on the table. I tell nicely the first time and then if she doesn't listen I say "feet down now" " off the table" in my best parenting voice.

Last night while watching a video before bed I put my feet on the table, like Isaac and I usually do at night. It is a great foot rest. Immediately, Janna says " fee down now Mommy" very loudly. Before even thinking I put my feet down as Isaac laughs and say she told you didn't she.

She has yet to correct Daddy but oh well.

Three weeks

Simon is three weeks old today. He is having a growth spurt and eating more often. He is lifting his head and looking at us more.

I am loving spending time with Simon.

Janna's accomplishments

Isaac took Janna to school today. She went in and played instead of having to be handed off to a teacher to sit with. She amazes me everyday.

Janna is also putting long sentences together. For example: "Thank you for my bread daddy" She says phrases like this all the time. She will often say a new word that we didn't know she knew. She is getting smarter everyday. I am so proud of my little girl.

Janna also has napped without her paci and burp cloth twice now at school.

She is using a glue stick now too. I get fun art work now.

We are still sitting on the potty more often, and she can take her diaper off by herself.
