Still Not Much

It's been nearly a week since my last post, so there's obviously still not much going on around here.

Wesley was doing a lot better with his sleeping but now has had two terrible nights in a row. We're getting more good nights in between the bad nights so I have to believe we're winning the sleep battle little by little. Nick has been on midnights for two weeks, it was supposed to be three but he was offered a switch to days for next week so tonight is my last night on my own. Woo hoo!

Even when he doesn't sleep he is the sweetest, happiest boy around. We were at the Early Years Centre last week and he started to cry. All the other moms were shocked because he never cries. He's got the cutest little giggle which tends to come out the most when Darcy is around. He follows her every movement and laughs at everything she does which she loves, of course.

Darcy is doing great, as usual. She's still trying to watch "Beauty and the Beast" as much as we will let her (thanks to Sue-Ann for the new VHS copy that her boys didn't want) but she'll settle for "Aladdin" if I can't take any more "B & B". She's just about finished her first series of ballet classes and we're also coming to the end of soccer and swimming too. She'll do ballet and swimming again. We found three things to be a little much for her at one time. She really enjoyed the soccer though and we found she had better physical skills than we thought. We couldn't have been more shocked when the teacher told Nick after one class that Darcy was really doing great, that she had great ball control and she was really getting the concept of the game. Darcy is skilled in a lot of areas but we've never thought sports would be one of them. She's too much like her mother in that way. We were pleased she was doing so well with the soccer but we just don't want her doing too much.

Here's a Darcy-ism from this morning. We don't eat fast food much. We usually only get it if we're at the mall and need to eat quickly. We rarely do a drive through. We were out this morning and Darcy had been having a great morning so I thought we'd drive through Tim Hortons to get some Timbits as a treat. After I placed the order and was driving up to the window Darcy asked, "Mommy, why was the sign talking to us?" I didn't see that the worker had opened the window as I was explaining to her that the sign wasn't talking to us it was a woman inside the store taking our order. The worker heard my explanation and cracked up and had to tell all the other workers that the little girl had thought the sign was talking to her. Very cute!
