Valdosta

A few weeks ago we took our first trip as a family of 4! We went to Valdosta to visit Grandma Margot. The kids loved spending time with her, as well as cousins Brad, Sarah, Julia, and Evelyn.

Rollin' Rollin' Rollin'

William started rolling from his back to his belly a few weeks ago, and we were able to catch it on camera. Unfortunately he hasn't learned to roll back which means once he rolls, he's stuck! This isn't much fun when he rolls in his crib at 3am and cries for help.

Family Shabbat

Last Friday was Family Shabbat for Sophia's class at school. Jason, William, and I all went to school to celebrate with her. Sophia came running in the room, so excited to see us (especially to see her Daddy!). All of the kids sat at tables and showed us their morning routine. Then they got their artwork to show their parents and then said all of the prayers. When they were done, we all had challah and juice.

Fun times

Here's a random collection of pictures from the past month. We're trying to be better about taking pictures!

Curly haired boy. I guess both kids will have curls!

5 months old

In the past month, William has gotten very good at holding and playing with toys. He can bring both hands together to grab a toy, and can shake it and put it in his mouth. He loves his exersaucer and can grab at and spin the toys on there too. He found his feet and loves to grab at them and eat them. He kicks at the toys on his bouncy seat, and kicks in the water during bath time. This month William started rolling over! He can roll from his back to belly, but not belly to back. By the end of the month, he was a pro, and he gets stuck on his belly many times each night. William is sleeping about the same, and is generally taking 3 naps a day now. We sleep trained him this month, so he now puts himself to sleep for naps and at bedtime.

Such a big boy!


Look Mom, I rolled over! (one of the first times rolling)
