My Seussical Life for 2004 July 5

We have eliminated Samuel's crib from our apartment. Now, my brothers' old bunk beds are set up in the boy's room. Actually, we started making the change-over while my mom and sisters were visiting. This way Atticus AND Kristen both were able to sleep in comfortable beds through Kristen's 10 day visit. Samuel is struggling with the change, though. Not that he really stayed in his crib very well (he's part monkey, like his brother), but at least he didn't wander in the night, once he was asleep. He's pretty restless now, when we put him to bed. I think his new bed is too open for him. He seems to miss the confines of his crib.

My mother wears an engagement ring on her hand. The final details of her wedding are forthcoming, but Ben has proposed and congratulations are in order. Hurray for your happiness, Mom!
