Night Time Is Right Time For Veronica

Veronica lost her belly button "thingy" (as the girls call it) on Wednesday and that seemed to open the door for a better night's sleep for everyone.

She slept four hours between feedings that night, then did the same Thursday night. Perhaps it is the colder weather that has helped her turn things around.

She also enjoys her motorized swing (pictured at left). Could it be she has her mother's love of thrill rides?


Olivia ready for soccer (at bedtime) and dress-up (at dinner).

Olivia was in "dress up" mode tonight, which meant we had a special visit from Snow White at dinner time. An hour later, we got a visit from a pajama-wearing "Pele" in cleats and shinguards. No, she did not wear them to bed.

Friday night, Emily has a soccer game. In last week's game, she scored a goal — and only Aunt Bridget and Uncle Jon were there to see it. Hopefully she can work her magic again with her family in place to see it. Lauren and Julia have their soccer game Saturday.
