Long time no Blog

Oh well... sigh... since Michael has been here at home on parent leave, I just have not been keeping up with blogging! First, he does not remind me like he did before... :-). But, also we are doing something most always even it if just means watching a DVD together. I guess, I could do the blogging anyway, but it seems that not too often read and no one has been complaining...

Well, and my parents and Gordeane (a friend of my mom's) were here in October which was another good excuse not to blog. Here is a picture:










It also took time to settle again after they left towards the end of the month and to find some kind of daily pattern/structure. In addition, Olivia went through a difficult time regarding learning a bit more like how to go to sleep by herself when she is tired. I am not 100% sure that this is going to stick... but, I am getting optimistic again (likely a bad idea since this led to disappointment a couple of weeks ago) about it since she has now achieved sleeping well for 2 days in a row (sleeping well means going to sleep without help and not screaming). She even has achieved sleeping for a whole 4 hours at night!!! This is an absolute record for Olivia since she hates sleep. I am hoping that it will just click once and she will try for sleeping 6 hours at a time... I could really use the sleep myself!

Well, speaking of sleep.... hmm... blog... or sleep... hmm.... well, I will maybe do one more with a few best of pictures from lately...
