January 2013


How beautiful it is to watch these two love each other. Josiah dotes on her, is fascinated by her, loves to take care of her.  Arianna loves his constant motion and noise!  I couldn't have asked for more!

January sadly meant the end to my 20 blessed weeks of maternity leave.  Arianna finally gave in and drank from a bottle, after much stress and a few tears of panic.  Thankfully Ariel is super patient and willing to wait it out and keep trying with her.  I left a stockpile of milk in the freezer...ready for anything!  It was a fairly smooth transition, made easier by the amazing nurses I work with who have also had to leave babies at home to work and the fact that Ari was almost sleeping through the whole night already!

Oh, little Arianna.  Those cheeks, that smile, the way you suck your two little fingers.  You are a joy!

Happy Birthday, Ariel!  We celebrated with a rare date night for two at Salty's.  The fog was so heavy though, we couldn't even see across the river.  Still had a great dinner and nice alone time together!
