My girls!

Delaney is now 6 weeks old and is growing so fast. She is smiling, cooing, and staying awake longer during the day. It melts my heart every time she smiles. When she is sleeping she will bust out in a giggle, it makes me wonder what she is dreaming/thinking about. We are still working on the sleeping at night and we have had many of talks about sleeping in her bassinet, but she is still turning the idea of sleeping alone down. I wore out my back last night bending over her bed for over 30 mins attempting to soothe her to sleep in her bassinet, but that of course did not work and she ended up in bed next to me. Brian has been sleeping in the other bedroom for the past couple of weeks so that 1.) so I don't have to hold her in my arms all night in fear of Brian rolling over on her (he's a heavy sleeper) and 2.) he gets some good sleep to function for work (I do better than he does in the lack of sleep department). I would rather deal with no sleep than deal with no sleep and a husband who whines about being SOOO tired! hehe. So any ideas on how to get our little Laney bug to sleep in her bed at night would be much appreciated!

Miss Avery is doing really well. The weather has been so nice here lately, except for the one day it snowed last week (see pic above). Snow at the end of April, crazy! She loves to play out side and throws the biggest fit when I have to bring her in. She loves to ride on the four wheeler with grandpa with her red helmet, she hates when the ride is over. She is soo smart, she has learned how to shift the gears, so you have to be careful when she is your co pilot! I will have to post pictures of them, its a site to see! We are still working on the word "yes". She over uses the word "no" and its an exaggerated "NNNNNOOOOO". She loves to dance to music and make up her own words. She has learned to jump and we believe she will be able to dunk a basketball in no time, with her height and jumping skills, we retirement is set! She has learned how to unsnap her onsies and remove her clothing and take off her diaper and run around naked. As I am typing Avery is singing a song and dancing around, she is the light of my life! Its amazing how one little person can make you want to pull your hair out on many of days but make you laugh a moment later.
