Randomness

I have a bunch of little things I wanted to say, so I'll just bullet point them!

• Brooke is finally sleeping through the night. It's been a few weeks now, but I've been afraid to put anything in writing too soon. After her 6 month doctor appointment and her doctor stressing how important it is for her to be getting a full nights sleep, I bought the book Healthy Sleep Habits, Happy Child. After a few nights she was sleeping 10 hours!
• Paige is doing so well with spelling words. She knows the sounds of all her letters (thanks to Montessori and Leapster's Letter Factory game) and she can sound out the letters in words and has started writing them. She still has a little way to go on reading the words.
  
• Brooke has finally started getting into solid foods. We've been offering her food since 4 months, but it's really been the last week or so that she's been eating anything sizeable. Her favorites so far are yogurt, pancakes and carrots. I've been making everything fresh and then freezing.
  
• We've all received our H1N1 vaccinations. Paige and Brooke have to go back and get a second dose a month after their first. For Paige that will be this week, but for Brooke it's in January.
• Paige is really getting into Christmas this year. She's been too afraid to sit on Santa's lap, but she did write him a letter (kind of). And she loves to sing Christmas songs. Although, she got a little freaked out the other night when dad was singing "He sees when you are sleeping..." right before bed!
