Wow! I can't believe that I haven't posted since Christmas; that should give you an idea about how busy life with three has been for us! Just when we think that we've got it all figured out, something happens...recently that has been Henry figuring out how to open up his doorknob! We spent several nights running up and down the steps placing him back in his bed until Justin finally turned the knob around. Henry doesn't like this, but he's figured it out, and he now knows that if he stays in his bed, we will even leave the door open. He woke up last night after about an hour of sleep, and when I went up there, he said, "Mommy, something scared me!" I was surprised by this because he's always been a good sleeper, without any lights on in his room. When do they figure out that there are things to be afraid of? Made me kind of sad.
Stella is a busy girl! She's learning how to do things much faster than her brother and sister did, but I think that this is because she is obsessed with them, and she's also a little afraid for her safety! Neither of the two understand that in order for her limbs to stay attached, they MUST STOP pulling on her! She's crawling all over and now pulling herself up on everything; we've even found her TWICE standing in her crib having a bit of a temper tantrum! I don't like this one bit because I'm a worrier, and I'm already envisioning her jumping out of her bed!
Sofia is just enjoying being a four year old! She's always wanting to show us everything that she can do 'all by herself' and asking us when she can go everywhere 'all by herself.' She's getting so big, and she's been a great big sister to Stella and starting to be nice to her brother. If I can get that figured out, life will be divine!
I go back to work in a week, with mixed feelings. Work is a break for me, but it will add some additional stress; I don't want to wish life away, but I am a big believer that next summer will be blissful with each of the kids having another year under their belts....me too!
