The first week was pretty easy since my mom was still around to help out with things like doing laundry, washing dishes, entertaining Annaliese, making sure we had a dinner plan and staying up with Haleigh in the middle of the night! However, I must say that we have done quite well the last few days! Ok, I will admit, Annaliese has watched VeggieTales, specifically King George and the Ducky, at least once a day! And we've had several wonderful friends provide dinner and only one load of laundry has been done all week. But we've also met a friend for a walk, gone on a hike, played outside on the swingset, blown lots and lots of bubbles, colored several pictures, and even made it to the grocery store!!
Annaliese is really into reading stories right now, so I've been able to get a few new books on my Kindle and we read those together while I feed Haleigh. She also has a few go-to favorites like "You are my Sunshine" and "Ten Little Ladybugs." She loves to identify all the different animals in her books; my personal favorite is the Frobbit...she may have misunderstood me when I explained that a frog says 'ribbit, ribbit' and now we have a frobbit!! So cute:)
She is also Haleigh's number one fan...she loves to help change her diaper, pet her, hold her, wake her up, and tell her that everything is going to be ok! It is so precious to see them together.
It has been such a blessing to watch Annaliese interact with Haleigh and I couldn't have asked for a smoother adjustment!
