Here's Miss Jo Jo enjoying a Sunday night bath with her sissie (not pictured here). She's smiling up at Nathan, who was just about having a panic attack that Jordyn was let loose in the tub (with three inches of water, as you can see). During his lifeguarding courses he's warned profusely about how babies can drown in three inches of water, or at least suffer lung damage. So he jumped just about every time she moved. He finally had to leave the room, and on the way out he said, "if she drowns, it'll be on your account!" For the record, she survived her bath and is now safely snuggled up asleep in her crib.
Today was a busy day. We did Sunday school, grocery shopping, a quick trip to Ikea, a big chicken, stuffing, mashed potatoes, and cranberry sauce dinner, and now Don's at a church meeting. At Ikea I got a great rug for the new family room, some shelves for the boys' rooms, a battery-operated alarm clock for each boy, some new dishes and utensils for Patience, and a ride-on stick horse (also for Patience). It doesn't make great horse noises like Hailey's, but she likes it well enough anyway.
I'm tired. Patience and Jordyn are sleeping in the same room. I hear every noise, and I jump up and run in there every time...I don't want one to wake up the other! Jordyn is a really light sleeper. This morning she was awake before 6. If she was in her own room, I'd just let her cry until she went back to sleep or until it was a reasonable waking hour. We're throwing around options and trying to figure out where we can build Patience a "bump out." : )
That's all for now! More tomorrow...
