Kaylee–1 Month Old

Author: Lou  //  Category: Family

Where has the time gone? In two weeks, I return to work because my little girl will be six weeks old. It is a scary thought. Why does time pass by so fast when you are having a great time? I have enjoyed the time with her all to myself without worrying about the kaos in my life. That will soon change.

Milestones or moments in her life so far that are important to me:

  • beginning to open her hands (ready to explore the world)
  • only sleep if she is on my arm (sometimes gets annoying)
  • eats all the time
  • hiccups are constant because she drinks her milk so fast
  • sleeps through the night (only gets up about once for a bottle)
  • isn’t annoyed by brother who is constantly in her face
  • stares so proudly at you
  • beginning to smile when you talk to her (I don’t think it is gas)

Children are so precious. They are truly a gift from God.

Preschool at the Arnold’s

Preschool has begun at the Arnold household. Ashton has a Leapster game that requires you to know letters and shapes to play it. I get so frustrated because the game is for 3 year olds but most 3 year olds don’t know their letters. He knows his shapes but not letters. So I am taking this opportunity to teach him his letters. He is so excited to learn the letter A because it is in his name. I figure we could do a week on the letter A. Check out his first piece of school work. I was shocked. The little 5 minute lesson went rather easy and then we played letter match games.
