| We're tempted to set the crib up again. Gibson has the hardest time staying in bed and taking a nap. On Tuesday he colored on his bedroom walls when he should have been asleep (he was rather proud of his artwork, too.) Currently, we are lying down with him when it's time for a nap which helps him stay in bed-- as long as he falls asleep before Mom or Dad does. |

| We thought Abe was outside playing earlier this week. He was really cleaning out the herb garden. All kinds of green things are popping up in the yard. |

| On Saturday we went to a family concert put on by the symphony. The symphony hosted a musical "petting zoo" before the show and let the kids try out different instruments. Abe tried blowing through the double reed from an oboe to make it squawk. |

| Helen liked playing a violin. ~ Also, a hip, hip hooray for Sophie who auditioned for her school play, Alice in Wonderland, and was chosen to play Tweedle Dum. Her good friend got the part of Tweedle Dee. The show will be in April. |

| Brandan has made a good recovery from his surgery, certainly helped by the excellent care he received at home. By the end of the week he was up and about, working on projects again. He even made a house call to see an elderly patient. We're glad Brandan's recovery was so smooth, but we'll miss having him home every day as he heads back to work tomorrow. |

I remember the trickiness of transitioning from a crib to a bed. In fact I am sure I am right behind you in this challenge. Glad to hear Brandan has recovered.
Oh the crib to the bed is tough. Anna's sleeping personality sure changed. Congrats to Sophie and gee whiz we are jealous of your green things popping up. Much to cold here for that.
Fantastic on Brandans recovery. Congrats to Sophie on Tweedle Dum, I love that play. Crib to bed was tough for my bunch, we probably used just a bit too much bribery, but it worked for us. Good luck with this transistion.
We're so proud of Sophie! My class is going to a production of Alice in Wonderland at the end of the month.
OK, question. . . did they give the kids the oboe reeds after? I used to play the oboe and those reeds are EXPENSIVE. And they do squawk. And CONGRATS sophie! Who is playing Tweedle other. . . call me tomorrow and tell me all about it. YW Pres. need to be "in the know!" I need to call Desta and find out what part she has. . .xoxox OH, and I laid with each of my kids for nap time FOREVER. I always had a new baby in the crib and didn't have the option. . .except Ben. And by then, I'd given up on nap time and just put him to bed earlier than a normal hour. Since he missed his naps. . .
We have to lock all the doors upstairs when Luke goes to bed in his big boy bed so if he does sneak out of his room, he can't get too far. He has been found playing with hand sanitizer and drinking baby training toothpaste. Oops. I feel for you! But, I am glad that Brandan has made a quick recovery. I have a hernia surgery in my future after I am done having kids...doesn't sound fun. Though lying around for a week does!
