life with two

Wednesday, November 30th, 2005

Things are going okay here, unfortunently David caught Killy’s horrible cold from last week so now he feels rotten. I actually succeeded in making him take the day off so far! That rarely happens. So, he’s been upstairs in bed and I’ve been down on the couch with the kiddos all day. […]

Just a quick update: Ellie is doing great, Killy is almost over his cold, but I’m not feeling well… We had a lovely week-long visit with Mom and Dad and it was sad to see them go, as always. But, we’re going to VA for Christmas in less than a month, so we’ll […]

Ellie just gets sweeter and more beautiful by the moment:

See what I mean? She has the cutest little smiles in her sleep… And, speaking of sleep, she sleeps great. She wakes up every three hours to nurse and then falls right back asleep, she hardly ever cries, and she’s very patient with […]

Ellandra Llewellyn Sharp Woods was born this morning at 3:54am, weighing 8lbs 4.6oz and measuring 19.5″. Jen was in labor for only 2hrs and 15 minutes! And only the last 15-20 minutes were active pushing (the difficult part). Compare that to Killy’s birth, of a 7hr labor and 2.5 hrs of pushing. Wow! […]

getting better

Killy is feeling much better today - thank goodness! He’s also decided that he loves his booster seat and has stopped throwing tantrums at every meal.
Erin’s in Emporia this weekend, my parents are arriving tomorrow night, and Mary Virginia is flying back to Virginia on Sunday. What a busy weekend of comings and […]
