February

February was a fun month at our house. Julia started becoming much more animated and playful. Lauren continues to love school and had a great Valentines party with her friends. She also started a swimming class every Tuesday where she makes crafts, has a swim lesson and then gets to play on the indoor swim playground - so much fun.  We are very lucky in that the city we live in (Frisco) has alot of great facilities for residents such as the swimming pools. Here are a few pics from  February.

January

It's been a fun month at our house.  Lauren went back to school after the holidays and was sooo ready to be back.  She loves her friends and teachers.  I started her in swim lessons and she's doing really well. Hoping to have her swimming without floaties by summer.  Julia also took her first swim, which lasted about 3 minutes.  She wasn't a huge fan just yet.  We're still doing our playgroup on Thursdays.  The weather was so nice last week, we were able to go to the park.  Julia is growing like a weed.  She's up to eating two meals a day and has so far tried rice, oatmeal, peas, sweet potato and prunes.  Unfortunately, she likes to suck her thumb after every bite, so it gets a bit messy.  She'll go next week for her 6 month check up.  Lauren had another ear infection and 2 rounds of antibiotics.  Hoping those will come to an end here soon.  We're all looking forward to spring, which comes so much earlier in Texas.  Then we'll be dreading summer :)

Back to work

I started back to work this week. I'm going to be working just one night a week at Baylor Frisco. It is a beautiful and small hospital just around the corner. For now I'm doing nursery, but hope to soon float to postpartum and L&D. The first couple weeks I'm orienting on day shift, which means James has gotten to spend alot of "quality" time with the girls. I think he has a whole new appreciation for stay at home moms. They have loved having him at home more though. Next week I'll start my night shifts. Wish me luck staying up all night after 6 months of normal sleeping.
