Thanksgiving, Decorating, Lego League and Life

Finding time to blog is just not easy.  Usually if I'm on the computer, I'm nursing so have only one hand for typing.  I'm not a fast one handed typist.

Samantha's sleep hasn't been the best.  Somewhere around 8-9 weeks old, she started sleeping in very short spurts-2 and 1 hour stretches.  Occasionally I have been blessed with a three hour stretch.  After several very bad nights, I finally just let her sleep next to me after her first waking.  She still woke up too much, but I was getting more 3 hour stretches and since she's right next to me, I can nurse her and barely wake up.

The kids were part of a First Lego League team thus year. Precise Prince was on the team last year and Creative Princess joined this year.  The kids enjoyed the day and were exhausted by the end.  They didn't place quite as high as last year and that's fine.


Thanksgiving was spent at my youngest sister's house.  It was a quiet holiday with only her family, us and our mom.  It was nice. 

World Traveler will not let me decorate for Christmas until after Thanksgiving so we started on Black Friday.  It took us all weekend but we I got the inside done and he got the outside.
