April 30, 2009 at 8:44 pm by AmandaDay 2
Ariella got her cereal, bath and her Momma Milk before being put down around 8:00ish. She fussed a little bit at first but then went right to sleep, with Momma pretty much right behind her. She woke up a few times during the night, but was able to get herself back to sleep pretty [...]
The Battle for Sleep
April 29, 2009 at 7:55 am by AmandaAriella is going to turn 7 months next week and is still waking up at least 2 or 3 times a night.

Starting the Easter Traditions
April 9, 2009 at 3:38 pm by DerekTwo of our Easter traditions are going to the Broadway Market and to Galley’s Nursery for flowers.
The Market was much more navigable today than on Holy Saturday, when we usually go. We picked up some sausage, pierogis, and a butter lamb from Camellia’s. I’ve always been partial to Wardynski’s, but Camellia’s sausage has [...]
