Sleep Glorious Sleep

Peanut slept 8 hours last night without a feeding. He went to bed at 8:30 and woke at 4:30 for his next feeding. I did not sleep because I was halfway between way too excited that he was sleeping and totally overprotective and checking on him every hour because I am not used to a child that sleeps. I am so so proud of him (and me). And then he slept until about 7:30 this morning. When I went in to get him he gave me a great big smile when I picked him up and then he gave Papa Bear and Little Man smiles too. It was a great night and a wonderful way to start the morning. My peanut is sleeping through the night at exactly 8 weeks!!!

Thanks Jess! A mama who gets to sleep is a happy mama and as everyone knows, no one is happy if Mama ain't happy!

Papa Bear (and me)

My partner in crime and most gentle soul around. Papa Bear is all that is kind and considerate and puts his family’s needs before his own. As most Papa Bears, he does not multi task well but is working on it. He is dedicated to quality in all of his projects, little or small – especially where his yard and house are concerned. He is the creative, artistic one in the family who can draw chalk animals with life-like reality in just minutes and cut out dinosaurs and bugs free hand with one hand tied behind his back and blindfolded. He is the kid chasing, dirt digging, worm finding, ball throwing, world’s best Papa Bear.

Mama Bear

I am a mom of three young kids who thrives on teaching my children to love life. I tend to over organize and can’t exist without a schedule but my kids are breaking me of both of those habits. I can re-create any craft or meal I see, but am not usually creative enough to come up with them on my own so I have no shame in stealing all of my good ideas from other moms with experience. I am learning every day how to be a good mother and wife and have the best teachers in the world, my family.
