Helping dad & Ben load firewood into the truck.

Wow.

What a week!
We had a visit from Grandpa Bill (who Louis referred to as Papo). Very fun and I think Lou enjoyed having someone to bunk with in his room. Lot's of early morning playtime.

Jean has been a real handful this week. Monday and Tuesday night were truly awful. She was up ALL NIGHT, wanting to nurse, be held, be with us in bed. I started to suspect I might not be leaving enough milk for her during the day and have since increased the amount of milk she gets in her bottle. That seemed to help the situation a bit. Though she's still not sleeping as good as I think a baby of her age and weight should be.

Louis has 2 more preschool classes this semester and will be continuing that when it starts up again in January. He had another show & tell and took his baseball mitt for the second time.

I don't have any new pictures, will try and take a few soon!

Jean & Sweet Potatoes

Here's what we did today:

*Went to pick out a tree to plant. Louis had the final choice between two trees Andy and I had narrowed it down to. Louis chose the dogwood. We also got a tiny christmas tree. For those of you in the know, the holiday tree is a big step for us. 

*Louis successfully climbed out of his crib for the first time.

*We had a dance party. Jean watched from the couch where she sat propped up and moved her arm to the rhythm.

*Pumpkin bread. Yum.
