Jorja - 3 months

Jorja
Mesmerized but not totally in love with her mobile and fish swing. She has definitely discovered her hands and likes to suck on as many fingers at a time as possible. I love the slurping noise she makes when sucking on a finger or two or four. She always has a smile ready especially first thing in the morning or after a nap.

Jesse
I really thought we had made significant strides on potty training but the last two weeks Jesse has reverted back to messing in his pants and not being too interested. I guess it’s time to truly commit and put on the underwear. As soon as I get down to my last pack of pull-ups we are going to jump in with both feet.

Since the last milestone update I’ve returned to work. I’m a mixed bag of emotions. I was a wreck the first morning but then found my stride and was actually impressed with my abilities to get it all done…well almost all of it. But now, I’m back to doubting whether or not I can do it all. I am absolutely grateful to have a husband that lends a helping hand but I still feel like I’m drowning. So…now it’s time to focus on all the good things:

Jorja survived my dumb mistake of putting her boppie on the coach with her feet headed in the wrong direction : needless to say she fell off the coach, luckily it was low to the ground, and landed on her face; scratching her nose and giving her a big gooseegg. Which reminds me, Jesse was quite accident prone this week as well. First day in shorts outside resulted in 5 bandaids (2 of them were consoling aids only).
Chris did really well last semester and is currently experiencing a well deserved 2 week reprieve.
My mom and I took a trip down memory lane….attended Viewmont High’s spring dance concert. It was especially heart wrenching during the daddy-daughter dance; I just sobbed. I miss my dad.
I discovered 2 of my favorite cousins, who live in St. George, have blogs.
Lastly, we are so lucky to have Brittany, another favorite cousin, watching Jesse & Jorja 2x a week. She is the best and Jesse adores her.
