miscellany monday

Guys. I've gotten myself together enough to do a Miscellany Monday post. This is momentous.

1) It's especially momentous because I've even managed to get this together when we all have colds. I even ended up with a low fever Saturday afternoon. Then kids both have runny noses, but so far nothing too bad. Hopefully they will get over it without having bad colds.


2) I've been reading a lot lately. When I get into a good book, I just fly through it. The most recent ones were The Glass Castle, and City of Thieves.

3) What's good for the goose is good for the gander. Or at least for the other goose... Henry Boy wants to do everything big sister does. She had her scooter out this weekend, and every chance he got he would go and sit on it.

Also? I hope he will always be a red head. So freaking cute.

4) The little guy has also suddenly become quite a climber. He climbed onto Celia's little table the other day. He has been climbing into every box and container he can.

5) Aha! Another thing about Henry is that he is sleeping great at night now! Two nights of sleep training was all it took. We went from at least 2 wake-ups every night, to ten hours uninterrupted, to now 10 1/2-11 hours! It is so much better getting to sleep at night!

6) Celia has discovered that she likes cooked spinach! I've been trying to get her to eat leafy greens for a while now.

7) Yesterday was on the warmer side, and midday it was warm enough to play outside for a while. I'm already looking forward to spring.
