I can't believe we are going on our third month with Caroline, she has been a wonderful addition to the family. She enjoys our busy life of soccer games, basketball games and reading books from ABC Books to AP Environmental when Lauren is studying. To us she has grown tremendously, but the scale still says she is 18 pounds. We all did have a pretty bad cold that lasted for weeks, and Caroline has been walking if not running up a storm.
Caroline has her own personality which we are still finding out. She has a mind of her own and does not like to hear "no", the bottom lip quivers and tears star coming down her eyes. When we got her she was so stoic, now that she is able to stretch out and do things she doesn't like being held back. Her eating is also very good and probably can get away without drinking a bottle a day. We still give her a bottle before bedtime, just to get milk into her.
We are so excited that Caroline will start toddler school next week. She will start with 2 mornings per week in a child development center that starts at 18 months. We spent about an hour at the cdc the other day and she loved it. Not that she doesn't like staying with Gramma, but she does need some activities with kids her own age.
Lauren and Michael are doing well. Michael actually picked up Caroline the other day on his own. Now if we can get him to change her diapers!
