Well Greg finally arrived back from Asia. It’s great to have him home…but I’ll have to say that it’s a tough transition when he’s back. He was gone just long enough that we got ourselves into a new little routine …. well as routine as we can be =) and then we need to work him back into it (LM…you said this exact thing to me in your email and it’s SO true!!!) This was the outfit we picked daddy up in!
Last weekend Aunt Theresa came and stayed with us and we shopped till we dropped. It was so much fun spending the weekend with her, we really had a great time and I Fiona love her – and her hair…F is already grabbing ahold of it!! i’m glad mine is short!
Tonight we are going to dye Easter eggs with the Hoffman’s …an anual tradition we’ve been doing for years…and then Sunday will be a marathon event of visiting the Grandparents.
Lately I’ve been reading everything I can about sleep habits. There are a lot of decisions to be made about what Greg and I think is best for us and for Fiona. For every one “Dr.” that says crying is o.k. there is another one that says it’s not….I’m sure there’s going to be some crying involved no matter what we decide is best for us…it will just be a matter of picking the one way and the right time and then sticking with it. Since I’ll be going back to work in JUST 4 WEEKS!!! getting prepared to get a sleep schedule down….at least at night….feels important. We really won’t start anything at all until she’s at least 3 months old (she’ll be 2 months on the 10th!) and we might even wait a tiny bit longer just so that I can get into the swing of being back at work…..try not to start too many new things all at once….or maybe that would be better =)
And for those of you who are following…no….we STILL are not taking the bottle. uh….i’m trying not to stress about it too much…but of course all my mother brain can imagine is my poor little girl starving all day while i’m gone and over a period of time she’ll stop growing…..ugh.
That’s the right idea about sleep stuff. Whatever you choose just be consistent and it will work.
Have you had someone else try to give her a bottle when you are no where in site???? Go get a massage and grandma or Auntie or ANYONE watch her and give her a bottle. 
My friend Julie’s son wouldn’t take a bottle from anyone except the day care provider.. hopefully at LEAST this will be the case for you.
Now that’s a smile!
KP, she is gorgeous! Who wouldn’t smile at this one! Hope all is well — loved the Tiger Trail pics and glad to see you are getting Miss Fiona into hiking from the get-go.
