150 + 46 Weeks

Poor Arley caught a bad cold this week.  For a couple of days he seemed pretty miserable, but he is slowly on the mend.  One night he screamed for over an hour and Carmie was begging me to take him out of their room.  Other than that, their room has worked out very well, most nights without any calling out or wake-ups.  On Saturday we took the kids on a picnic to Narrawallee Inlet.  It ended with Jeffrey quite mad at Carmie.  He took her for a scooter ride, on the road.  He was walking behind her, and she just kept going and going.  When he started calling to her to turn around, she just continued to ride, saying, "You can't catch me, you dirty old flea!"  She eventually lost her iPad privileges for the day, and I don't think Jeff will take her on a scooter ride ever again :)  Carmie spent Sunday on the farm while I was working in the gallery, and Arley had a day at home with his dad.  Arley started to stand without support this week, and he laughs every time.  He seems to understand a little more too, and learned how to play 'catch' with Carmie and me.  For two days running he has also only had one nap, and he seems to be absolutely fine with it, so maybe it won't be too long before I can get the kids on the same nap schedule, and my house arrest will be over!
