Juggling Act

I've posted a lot of Jonah pictures and didn't want to leave the little girl out.

She has been eating nonstop today. This may be the precursor to a growth spurt. If so that means she'll sleep all day sometime soon - that could be nice (sigh). It seems like for the most part I spend my day going back and forth between kids meeting their needs. Elisabeth slept long enough for me and Jonah to have lunch. Then she had a quiet moment when I was dealing with Jonah at nap time. But there are those moments when the baby is crying and Jonah is into something at the same time, that's when it gets a little hectic. I just signed up for a Mothers of Preschoolers (MOPS) group that meets twice monthly. The fact that I found myself being so excited about means I probably really need it. And they watch the kids for two hours. I don't know what I'll do with myself.
On a separate note, I'm starting to think I'm too lazy to keep calling her Elisabeth (Not that I call her by her name much now anyway - usually it's baby doll or baby girl or something). I may end up calling her Rose. I guess that means I should call her Elisabeth Rose until I make up my mind so I don't confuse people by changing her name on them. I'm sure this isn't the last thought on that though :-)

Jonah's 2nd Birthday

Yesterday was Jonah's actual birthday and since they sent us a coupon for a free kids meal, we went to Red Robin for dinner. Jonah really enjoyed meeting the Red Robin and eating spaghetti. They brought him a free dessert and sang a happy birthday song to him which he really loved. There is a couple of videos below (the lighting isn't so good but you get the feel of it.)

Jonah's Birthday/Labor Day Party

Since Jonah was born on the Labor Day Holiday in the year he was born, we had a party for him this labor day and invited a few friends. He had a great time at the park. Here are some moments from the day:
