Baby tricks... Rolling over

Rolled over for the first time today out of sheer dislike for tummy time.

Sleeping the day away

I did it! Just like Adam

Adam has the dad techniques that I try to emulate but rarely succeed. For nap time he just lays Harper on his chest and pats her belly, and off she drifts into a peaceful sleep. I always have to use the breastfeeding mom technique, which is less convenient sometimes. Well, I finally got the belly pat to work just this one time and was so proud of myself, even if I never get it again.

Leprechaun trap

For Owen's first school project we got up early on Friday morning and gathered supplies we had on hand... box, tissue paper, stickers, play-coins, colored paper and tape. Now we are all set to pull together a last minute assignment. Maybe next time I will read the teacher's note before 10 pm on the night before it is due. But, I think it was not half-bad.

Robin Hood and Little John

Brother loves his little girl

Owen tells us "This sure is the baby I wanted." He really does love his sister and it's a good thing since we aren't going to get him a different baby.
