Julia sleeps through the night!

Julia slept from 9pm to 6am and then mom panicked and woke her up. Unfortunately, Alex was up twice last night so mom hasn't gotten a full night of sleep, but it should be coming soon.

Julia was so well rested she gave lots of smiles today.

Christmas Carols

Alex really loves singing Christmas Carols. His favorite is Rudolph the Red Nose Reindeer. Here is a video of Alex and Julia hanging out in the easy chair listening to the music. Just minutes before Julia was giving huge smiles but we had some technical difficulties and didn't get the video.

Busy Weekend / Good Sleep

We had a fun and busy weekend. Alex and Julia hung out with Dad on Friday night while Mom went out with her friends. Luckily Julia ended a short-lived bottle strike, although she still doesn't like bottles. On Saturday, we went to our favorite playground and played basketball. Saturday night we had a new babysitter Randi whom Alex really liked. He was very mature and didn't cry at all except at bedtime (which is a daily occurrence). Julia did great too. On Sunday Mom worked at the coffee stand of a holiday bazaar and then we had dinner with our friends the Gills. Their kids weren't there except at the end, but Alex did great playing by himself and then playing cars with Aaron. Julia enjoyed the backrub that Marie Gill gave her. She was so relaxed that she slept 7.5 hours straight!

Late November Videos

Here are some video clips from the last few weeks. They include time with Cousin Emily in Suncadia and the Snowflake Lane parade in Bellevue.

A Happy Thanksgiving

We had a happy Thanksgiving with G&G Felton, John, Ann, and Emily. Alex enjoyed throwing snowballs with Dad and eating turkey and pie. Julia gave many smiles including the first caught on camera.

Here's Alex sleeping at 4am with his feet up on the castle, his arms behind his head, and all his clothes on.
