Uncle Peter and Aunt Lindsey

Peter and Lindsey were in town this weekend to meet Ryan and spend some time with Elizabeth.  It worked out well that we had beautiful weather here, which was a nice change from Philadelphia.  We spent most of the weekend eating and playing outside.





































We are encouraging Elizabeth to be more independent and do things for herself.  Although this will surely cost us some time, we hope it will free up some hands now that we have the little guy to take care of.  Elizabeth came up with her own list of chores.  Some of these she can already do herself and some will take some work, but we like the way she's thinking.

Yes, the first chore on this list is "wipe," as in her bottom.















Ryan is still doing well.  We are waiting for smiles but only see them sporadically at this point.  His days continue to consist of an eat-and-sleep routine with some playtime on his play mat.  We are spacing out his feedings a bit more now that he is eating more at each feeding.  He sleeps anywhere from five to seven hours at night.  We are working on moving his bedtime back a bit so he is in bed before 11pm.
