Alex in the big girl bed!

January 22: We've been trying to convince Alex for a while to sleep in her big girl "Dora" bed, since the new baby will be needing the crib before long, but she has never had any interest. We had to miss her nap today to go to Katie's parent-teacher conferences, so that night we decided to try out the Dora bed in her new room and just see how it went...it went great! Sound asleep in just a few minutes, and slept all night!
January 23: Katie and I went to get her when she woke up the next morning, and she was so proud that she slept in her bed! This ended up being a very easy transition!

January Pictures

We didn't take a lot of pictures in January...may have been because our laptop was down, or maybe we took way too many in December...I don't know for sure, but here's a few pictures that we did take.

1/3: Katie went with me to run some errands...okay, so I had to bribe her to get her to come with me rather than stay home with daddy. We found a nice ring pop at Michael's and by the time we got home, she had red lollipop everywhere!


1/15: Here's a short video of Alex eating some pudding...she kept calling it "chocolate goo" but we couldn't get her to say that...but you can see the excitement and her love of chocolate...




1/18: We went to check on Alex before going to bed and this is how we found her...
Poor baby loves to have a couple of books to read as she is falling asleep...of course, great parents we are, went to get the camera and take several pictures before taking the book off of her face!
