Big Sister

Bottle for Brother

After a longer day out than intended (Wal-Mart for misc. kid/baby stuff & Monika's fabric store) I ended up having to feed the little guy with a bottle, since I'm nursing and the opportunities are far & few between I let Lulu feed her brother. She was excited and did a wonderful job making sure she didn't pull it out and making sure the milk was in the nipple.

New Bed

With Lulu's recent interest to napping on the floor we were discussing a toddler bed for her 2nd Birthday. Then a woman Gerry works with offered us a free bed, so of course we took it even though it isn't a car be like Mathew's, which she likes so much! We brought it in put on new sheets, and a couple blankets... thought she'd play on it and take some naps there at first. Then later we'd move to try some night sleeping.

As you can see she loaded up the bed with all her night time sleeping pals and crawled into the toddler bed. That is Lulu plus 8 animals/dolls and a night light. I checked on her several times throughout the night (I am up nursing anyhow and I worried about her falling out)... but she never once got up and slept through the night until about 8 am. She's getting so BIG (boohoo).

She's talking so much these days. She knows more and more words every day it seems.
