Caroline's evaluation with the speech therapist was everything I expected it to be. She is slightly delayed, but nothing major. The ST noted that she's really good at mimicking, but does not initiate questions or conversation. In the past month or two, she has started using 2 word phrases/sentences, but that is very recent. I've been reading up a bit, and I think that 18 months is when children normally speak in small sentences. At Isaac's checkup, the pediatrician said that he should be babbling at this point. He isn't babbling at all. Maybe our kids will just speak late??

Does Isaac look like me or Todd? I can't really tell. The kids are sleeping right now, which is why I am posting so many pics. I hope to post a few more tomorrow and update you all a little more. We really have had a lot going on here. Good night.

I really want to post photos but...

I haven't had the chance. Isaac has not napped today at all and I think I am losing my mind!! Caroline had only 2 or 3 tantrums, so it wasn't too bad. I really hope to post the pics tonight, but I can't make any promises. Caroline is in the bath and Isaac is screaming, so I need to go.

I have an excuse...

Really, I do. I can't think of it right now, but when it comes to me I will certainly let you all know. Isaac and Caroline are sick, so things have been a little slower and quieter lately. Caroline will be going to see a speech therapist on Tuesday. Hopefully, we will get a better idea of what is going on with her speech. (and hopefully she will be better by then)

Todd has a new office now with his business name on the door. It's oh-so-official looking. He is in the process of moving in and hiring interns for the summer. Very exciting!

I am, well, shopping for furniture (mostly just a bed, but a few other things as well). It has been an interesting experience. I love "shopping" on Craigslist, because its a lot easier on the kids. Most of the furniture stores I have been to have high prices and not-so-nice furniture. Even during their "sales" I find things like a 1980s style formica dinette with upholstered chairs with metal frames for $3995. I don't think so!

Lots of updates

I haven't been blogging much lately. We've been busy unpacking and settling in our new home.


Caroline~ She is speaking more clearly these days and putting words together. She also knows all her letters and numbers up through 15. I really think she will be reading by the end of this year.

Isaac~ He is on a nursing strike! We are really struggling to get him to nurse. He is absolutely not interested unless he is sleeping. I don't see any teeth coming in yet, but certainly we will see them soon. He is eating solid food now too and he really seems to enjoy it. He is sitting up very well and starting to creep/crawl on the floor. Oh no!

Me~ I had 4 stitches put in my thumb last week. As a result, I can't do much around the kitchen as far as cooking/cleaning goes. The stitches will be in another week and then I will have my thumb back. The injury could have been much worse, so I am thankful it wasn't.

Todd~ He is starting his new job next week. The new job is actually just the old job, but he will be working out of Cary, NC. A NYC job without the snow! Yay!
