Sophie has had a pretty eventful week. Over the weekend, she got her flu shot and then got to see the Barnum and Bailey Circus. Apparently, the circus was far too loud this year, so both Daddy and Sophie decided it was time to come home at intermission. However, Sophie said she really enjoyed the popcorn, the silly dogs and the painting elephant.
This past week, Mommy and Penny have been home, alone in the house. It is mostly going well. Because Mommy still cannot do very much, Grandpa has been picking Sophie up from pre-school each day. Sophie has been enjoying it and despite spending only a few minutes a day with him, always states she had fun with Grandpa when she comes home. Sophie has also made some changes at school. She now has some regular friends in her class that she plays with every day. She also has started taking spanish class on tuesdays and a music class on thursdays. However, she has yet to be inclined to tell Mommy or Daddy what she has learned in either class.
This coming weekend, Sophie will attend a super fun halloween party at her friends', Evan and Lauren, home. Mommy looks forward to taking many pictures. Penny will also be in attendance, but likely not in costume since apparently newborn costumes are hard to come by.
Penny has done great this week. Her features have been filling out and now when she makes the right face, she has a double chin. She has taken well to feeding and now has a feeding pattern. Unfortunately, she also has a standard fussy period, and it generally starts between 8-10pm and ends somewhere between 12:30-2:30am. This wouldn't be so bad if babies slept more than 3 hours at a time. As a result, since during the day, Penny takes two naps, Mommy generally uses one of them to catch up on the lost night time sleep. Daddy has started to occasionally take the train to work to catch up on some of the sleep he loses. As far as we can tell, Sophie is sleeping through all the noise, thanks to some insulating Daddy did of the door-ways two weeks ago.
