Settling In

We have been home for a little over a week now, and we are finally getting into a daily schedule and life is settling down a bit. Anna Grace is doing great. She continues to bond more and more with Cole and Alex each day. She really enjoys playing with them and learning how all of her toys work. She is sometimes very clingy during the day, and she wants me to carry her around the house as I am trying to do dishes or laundry. However, the boys have been happy to give me a little break. Anna Grace enjoys playing with her brothers in her room for a little while.

We have given up on putting her in a crib, and she is happily sleeping in a toddler bed. She sometimes rolls out of it even though it has little bed rails part of the way down the sides. But, when we say it is time for bed she says "night-night" and gives her best attempt to climb in. I sit with her while she falls asleep each evening and afternoon.

She enjoyed going to church for the first time on Sunday. She loved the music and all of the attention everyone was giving her. Cole and Alex have been going to Vacation Bible School in the evenings this week. I have been staying for the first part with Anna Grace so that she can watch the music portion. She has been trying to do the hand motions, dances along with the other kids, and claps her hands at then end of each song. It is so cute to watch her. I know that she will enjoy staying for Vacation Bible School next year when she is old enough.

  1. I'm so glad that things are settling down and becoming more routine. I'm sure there is so much going on and the thought of anything "routine" is greatly welcomed. We're heading off to our lakehouse (in Wisconsin) on Sunday night, but would love to schedule a time for pictures after July 1st. Much Love, Melissa and family
