December according to Facebook

Dec 6, 2011 -
I let Gracie help me make biscuits for dinner. She kept licking her fingers then sticking them back in the bowl. I told her to stop putting her germs in the biscuits. She argued that her "germs are bery extremely nice".

We made it to the 2nd trimester - whew! I'm starting to feel human again.

it's really hard to keep a straight face while playing pretend with my 3 year old. Especially when she busts out the villainous laugh for her bad guys.

infuriating or funny?
the six year old was getting ready for school this morning - alternating making fart noises with his mouth and hands, and actually dressing. I asked him to stop the noise...twice...so he does it one more time. When I questioned his decision, he told me he was just saying "sorry" in fart language.

our jack russell discovered the space heater. She's just been sitting in front of it with her eyes closed ever since.

16 week prenatal appointment revealed another Wiggly Wilsford. Too wiggly to pin down a heartbeat with dopplar. All we heard was swishing as baby rolled from side to side. Now I'm certain it's a boy.

the six year old has FINALLY figured out how to go back to sleep. This is the 2nd day in a row he's slept past 8am - IN HIS LIFE.

Her 2nd haircut ever. She was a little anxious, but the sweet tarts won her over.

Tortilllllaaaa


Today we got to meet baby Sebastian in person! Jonah and Gracie spent some time in the car deciding what would be the best way to make him smile at their first encounter.

They agreed that saying, "tortillllaaaa" in a high voice would be an excellent idea.

Jonah was pretty focused on the baby, as I figured he would be. There were some doubts about how Gracie would react, though, as I've seen her be pretty indifferent about babies of friends.

She surprised me, crouching down on the floor, talking baby-talk to Sebastian - working to get smiles from him.

Somebody might be warming up to her future roll as a big sister!
