Yes, finally getting in another post. With two little munchkins now, my time is not spent updating the blog, but spending my time with them. I'm sure everyone can understand that. We're all doing well and thankful that the major seasonal change from winter to spring is over... we all got hit with those horrible allergies this year right after we got over the flu. Hopefully everyone else made it through this year without getting sick!
Izabelle is now 10 weeks old... where does time go? She's changing every day and getting so big! Looking at the differences between Izy and Audree at this age, the girls are almost compl
ete opposites. Izabelle is my grumpy baby. Those that are around when she's throwing her fits usually think there's something horribly wrong, but that's just Izabelle. She loves to talk and once in a while I almost get a giggle from her, won't be too long and she'll be giggling and laughing. My favorite coversations with her are when she's just finished eating, I call it our after breakfast/lunch/dinner talks.

Audree's first question most mornings, "is Izabelle awake?" It's fun to see Audree try to play with her and Izabelle talk back. I've found Audree reading her books on many occasions and bringing her lots of toys to play with. I'm sure Audree will be in heaven when Izabelle can participate in the play... won't be long!
For those of you that have infants that may be having problems with colic, reflux or just don't do well laying flat to sleep, we've recently found something called an Amby Baby bed. We may check into it later when Izabelle grows out of her swing. We currently have a baby swing that is more like a papa-san than the old traditional swing and Izabelle absolutely loves it and sleeps so much better when she is in it. She's been sleeping through the night since she was 3 weeks old when we let her start sleeping in that because she was very congested and she likes the movement of it rocking (thank goodness for rechargeable batteries!!!) The Amby Baby has a similar sleep position (a hammock) which is also supposed to simulate movement in the womb. It's very cool and is like an all-directional swing that even bounces because it hangs from a spring.
