This Week's Highs and Lows

Here are some of the highs and lows from the last week or so.

HIGH: My mom bought Ava some Play-do

LOW: Ava is mixing all the colors together

HIGH: At the end of the day, it doesn't really matter because we can always buy more.

LOW: Another expense

HIGH: Noah is getting his two bottom teeth

LOW: He has been fussy and not sleeping well

HIGH: I now know he WILL eventually sleep because the teething WILL eventually end.

LOW: He is putting everything in his mouth (and so is Ava)

HIGH: Grammy has been helping out this summer, 3 days a week.

LOW: Last week was her last week

HIGH: I have been working out all summer and getting closer to my goal weight

LOW: With my mom gone, I am going to have to motivate myself to work out during the week.

HIGH: Ava comes up with the greatest sayings lately.("Not quite yet" is the latest)

LOW: I realize I really have to watch what I say.

HIGH: Noah had his follow up appointment with his Gastroentrologist this week

LOW: Looks like we have a long road ahead of us with introducing solids and he has to stay on his reflux medicine. 

HIGH: Ava has become way more interested in her brother

LOW: She wants every toy that he has and grabs it as soon as he gets it. Noah gets very MAD when she does that. We are going to have a battle of strength as he gets older.

HIGH:  Ava is forced to learn how to share.

LOW:  It has involved many tears on all ends.

HIGH: Ava has the wildest imagination.
LOW: She scares herself easily and sometimes has nightmares which wake her up at night.
