With the holidays behind us, things are finally starting to settle down. Here's a rundown of what's been going on:
Christmas/Hanukkah- lots of family time, lots and lots of presents, lots of reading the Grinch book. The holiday season culminated in the great meltdown of 2011, in which Nathan became hysterical because santa brought him a new couch and put his old one away. Go figure.
Noah- we have just in the past week started giving him solids (cereal and sweet potato) and, drumroll, he FINALLY rolled over, 1 day before his 5 month birthday. He's starting to be able to sit up on his own for a few seconds unassisted, and has taken to trying to sit up in his swing, which may mean his swinging days are numbered. No, he's not sleeping through the night. Boo. He sometimes sleeps until 4 a.m., which is tolerable, but most nights he's up at 1 a.m. and again at 4 a.m.
Nathan's school- Nathan just finished his second week of school and is loving it. He does lots of "lessons" which include puzzles, artwork, and more. Unfortunately he has a bully in his class, I am waiting to see if things improve before interfering. Also, Nathan tends to be oversensitive and I don't want to encourage that by being hyper-responsive.
As for me, I'm somehow 1 pound away from my pre-pregnancy weight, despite many holiday transgressions. I managed to fit into most of my old jeans just in time for the recent cold weather. I don't know how either of these things are possible, since my body doesn't look ANYTHING like it did before. Lots of work still to be done, hopefully with time there will be improvement. No, you don't get a picture for this paragraph :)
That's about it, I'm counting the days to our cruise (41!!!) and hoping that Nathan naps just a little bit longer today so that I can relax for a minute :)
