three weeks

Conley is already three weeks old. I can't believe where the time has gone. He is such a sweet and calm baby. He is already a big boy! He is almost too big for his 0-3 month clothes. He is a champion sleeper, usually waking only one time during the night. He has even had a few nights of 8 hour sleep, it has been wonderful! We just love him and are so happy to have him here in our family!
Everyone has asked me how Auburn has adjusted to having a sibling. She was a little bit jealous and wanted Mommy to hold her all the time, but she soon got over that. She loves her brother. She is always bringing him her toys and her favorite blanket. I had to intercept a rice cake that she was trying to feed him the other day and explain that he only drinks milk right now. She also regularly asks to "hold baby Conley" or "snuggle baby Conley". She also loves the double stroller and asks me to "sit next Conley". She really is such a wonderful big sister!

Here are some more pictures of our little man. I included a few of Auburn because she is just cute.

Prague

So this week Simon's parents were in town visiting, and we decided to take a little weekend trip. The night before we left we decided on Prague. None of us had ever been there, we didn't have to drive over the Alps, and it was relatively close only about 3 and half hours away. Before we left we had to make sure that the rental car could drive to the Czech Republic, because apparently not all rental cars can, they have to be a certain type. I still don't know why. To make our adventure even crazier, the bag with Simon and my stuff in it somehow didn't make into the car. We did not make this discovery until we were at our hotel. Luckily, Auby's stuff made it and we had our coats and gloves. We did however, miss our thermals it was very cold. I'm sorry that there aren't more pictures of Auburn. She was bundled up in her stroller. Prague is a really neat city and has a lot to explore. Here are some of pictures..... St. Nicholas Church, where Mozart once played t...

reading

Auburn has been asking me to teach her to read.  So, I decided to try and just see what would happen.  She just barely turned four and I didn't want to push her, but she was excited so we started.  I am also not a fan of German Kindergarten (preschool here) and I know that she needed some extra stimulation.  Thank heavens for the internet and a knowledgeable sister-in-law.  We have been doing word family crafts, a sight word caterpillar and working on phonics.  There are so many wonderful resources out there to make learning to read fun.  She is really reading now and loves it.  She picks up books and reads the words she knows and asks us for the ones she doesn't know.  She is sounding words out and totally amazes me.  Right now she will read to anyone that will sit down with her.  reading to Uncle Seth and Conley  This is a common scene at our house, and makes me so happy.
