audrey is two months old today :) i decided yesterday that she was old enough to sleep in her own crib instead of the bassinet. she's been sleeping through the night regularly since she was four weeks old so there's no need for her to be in our room any longer, right? as i set her in her crib last night, she settled in and continued to sleep peacefully. as i went about getting ready for bed, i chatted to michael about how this was the best thing for her now and how we should have put her to sleep in the nursery weeks ago and how she should really start using her own room because that's why we bought her all that stuff to set it up and about how good i felt about my decision to leave her in the crib and have i mentioned she's sleeping through the night? i mean that's what you're supposed to do, right?
michael called my bluff pretty quickly thank goodness and i soon grabbed her out of that dangerous crib. i mean what if i didn't hear her when she needed me or she suddenly is able to SIT UP and PULL herself out of the crib or OMG what if she stirs in her sleep and the blankets cover her face?! the blankets?! its better if she sleeps with us because i would KNOW if anythings wrong and gosh she's awfully young isn't she? and i would keep those blankets far, far away and no where near her face. of course. because i would know. of course i would. anyway, audrey will be sleeping in her bassinet in our room for the foreseeable future. audrey may be ready for her crib, but for goodness sakes her mother is not.
here's a few pictures of the lil' pumpkin at the park last week:

Lola still sleeps in our room, but we only have a one bedroom apartment. I think I, too, might have a harder time with her in a separate room than she will!
We had Peter in our room for the first 6 months after we went and got he and Dima...between the two of them waking up alternately, we were desperate that if one woke up, he didn't wake up the other. needless to say this little family started to get used to each other and I was more than happy to let Peter join dima in their bedroom instead of ours. Then again he was all of 17 months by that time...(and yes, I did have a bit of a twinge:)
oh man i love the first photo...and the last :) and the middle as well, you know, I adore trees. :)
everyone loves that quilt you made for audrey valerie. :) it's my out-of-the-house quilt because of the canvas-like backing on it. its perfect for looking up at trees!
yep, that's what I intended, utility blankie. :)
