Loved Neil

Neil Diamond was fantastic. There was no flash, no gimmick to his show, just Neil and his band - Amazing. It was nice to get out, although I felt bad for Kara and couldn't stop worrying that she might have her hands full with all 4 kiddies. When we returned home we were pleased to hear that our kids slept well and Kara had a quiet evening.

We introduced the jolly jumper and Exersaucer to Dylan this week. It took him only a few moments to figure out that he liked both. He is growing up fast. He loves to kick his little legs, especially in the tub. He makes all kinds of wonderful little noises, babbles and blows raspberries. We are still trying to get him back onto a proper sleep schedule. He is not yet back to sleeping through the night...hopefully soon.

Hailey is my super helper. She likes to make her little brother giggle. It is fun to have a conversation with her, she is quite articulate and imaginative. We don't have as much time together as we used to, so while Dylan is sleeping we try to do something together. This week we made muffins, rain sticks and caterpillars.

We met a few brand new babies this week. Bonnie and Brian brought baby Grace to visit and Danielle brought baby Bennett to visit. Amazing that babies start out so small and grow so quickly. It has only been 4 months and Dylan is already looking so much like a little boy
