No more apartment

Two weeks ago was the last week to move out of our apartment. I was basically a parent in absentia.  It didn't lend itself to having much to say.

This week it has been nice to see my girls again.  

Grace has had a bit of a tough one.  Maybe it's the new house, maybe it's the new sister, maybe we haven't a clue, but she had several really tough nights where she was up all night tantruming to two in the morning. If there are any great quotes, I'm not thinking of them. I'll blame it on the sleep deprivation. Even with this recent rash of late night screaming fits, Grace has been improving in using her feelings vocabulary and finding calmer ways to deal with the situations she finds frustrating.

Isobel has been her usual pleasant self. We've had one or two almost laughs.  That's definitely the milestone we're most excited about right now.
