Blog Break

We took a little vacation from the blog for the past month. A stomach virus, a cold virus, family visitors, Carrie's wedding, lazy pregnancy days, and work at Deer Valley kept us pretty busy. But we are back!

Jake and Stevie seem to be changing so much lately. Jake has entered a new behavior phase that we are still trying to get our arms around. I think I am planning on taking a parenting class next month about the Love and Logic series. Hope it will help me understand this little boy better. On the flip side...potty training finally settled in very well after 4 long months. Jake has had almost a perfect month last month. Yeah!

Stevie still says new words every day. She has started to understand the concept of stopping bad behavior before she has to go to time out. That is a huge improvement. A few days ago Jake made her feel bad because he didn't say hi to her when he woke up from his nap. I cracked up when she went and stood in the corner and pretended to cry with her hands over her eyes. She kept looking back at Jake to see if her plan was working. Funny...
