I ended my last post with the Peppa Pig show we took Ari to at the beginning of April, leaving Sam home with a babysitter. I worked the next two days, then took Sam’s picture a couple of days after he turned 10 months old. At the end of my last post, I also mentioned… Continue reading April 2017, Sam at 10 Months Old, Easter, and Vision Board 2017
Once again, I have so much catching up to do here! These are busy times, for sure. The day Sam turned nine months old, March 6th, I was in the middle of a 5-day stretch off work. Woo hoo!! Sam was feeding himself: We went to The Children’s Gym with friends. Now I’m thinking about… Continue reading March 2017, Sam at 9 Months Old
This post is a couple of weeks old, but I’m going to save everything that’s happened since for another post. We just got busy and I never managed to finish this and post it on time!

Then we all went to the zoo, where Ari carried his little animals all over and did a good map-reading… Continue reading September 2015, Ari at 26-27 Months
Time for a big retrospective of the past month, and a description of Ari as he approaches his second birthday! In early May, we went to the Children’s Museum, just the two of us. He pushed a cart around the grocery store and tried to make off with all the corn and plums: But he… Continue reading Ari at 23 Months Old (and A Little Beyond) and the Garden in May
Whew! It feels like more than a week and a half since my last post. Maybe that’s because we’ve been having a bad time with sleep! I’ve started to think that Ari might be getting too old to be waking up and nursing every few hours every night. Getting five uninterrupted hours of sleep in… Continue reading Another (sleep-deprived) week and a half in the life of Ari! And now he’s 9 months old!
