This has been Leah's bed for the past four months. It is called a sleep and play. It was a desperation purchase at Baby's R Us by a couple of sleep deprived Coleman's that really paid off. This wonderful invention saw us through Leah's reflux problem and for that I am forever grateful. I had to sneak in and snap one sleeping baby photo before she gave it up completely. Believe it or not, Leah has begun sleeping in her crib! I had to buy a two inch thick temperpedic mattress topper, but it was well worth the $40 bucks! She is still not sleeping through the night (this is a whole other story), but at least it is a start.

Random thoughts
I have been so busy this year that my blog has truly taken a backseat. I have vowed to get up to date in the next few weeks. This post is a compilation of all of my random thoughts that I would like to preserve for posterity. For those of you who don't know, this blog has really become our family record. I have one hardbound copy in my possession of the early years in Sarah's life, and I am committed to doing the same for Leah. Wouldn't you love to know what your Mom was thinking and feeling during your early years? I hope they cherish this as much as I will.

Sarah has spent the better part of 2010 playing dress up. She was recently asked to be the flower girl in our next door neighbor's wedding. Here she is practicing with some pretend flower petals (which were colored and cut out by miss Coleman herself). I found this dress at a yard sale and it made a perfect flower girl dress for the rehearsal.
Leah seems to grow and change on a daily basis these days. But one thing never changes...Leah has a LOT of hair. It is becoming curlier as the humidity and heat of summer descend on us in full force. I love it! Maybe she will be my little bohemian child who likes to wear long flowing dresses and listen to coffee house music. Only time will tell.
My two blessings from God.
They truly love each other so much. I never understood the sisterly bond until I had them. They truly light up each time they see one another in the morning. So sweet!
Leah has become quite the Daddy's girl since he returned from Argentina. She usually screams when I leave her sight, but now it's Daddy's turn. She wails uncontrollably when he leaves her side.
