I have wonderful news ... Justin did a great job in his big boy bed!! He went down without a peep or getting out of bed even once! He did pull the wooden stick out of the pull down shade and was banging it like a drumstick ... but Brian went in once to tell him no touch, then he stayed laying down and went to sleep! So we were quite surprised ... then of course we were saying last night that we wonder what he will do in the morning. But to my amazement I heard him talking around 7:50 a.m. and I went in to find him sitting in bed waiting for me (he had of course thrown his blanket, buddy dog, and other stuffed animal onto the floor)! So I was very excited this morning. Now all we have to do is get the kid talking in sentences! We'll even take some phrases ... words ... anything!! And to answer your question Ryan ... he is saying more words ... however his favorite thing to do is still make that "strange sound" as you call it! We're working with him as best we can ... he is trying ot repeat much more these days which is a big step for Justin! If he turns out like you that wouldn't be such a bad thing! I guess that means I should start preparing myself to potty train him when he's 4!!
Sydney had her first night in with Hailey which went great as well. We heard Sydney fussing a little around 6 when Brian was getting ready to leave for the airport, but she must've gone back to sleep because I didn't hear Hailey or her again until closer to 7:30 (a little earlier than normal, but not too bad!) ... and then when I went in I found Hailey IN the crib with Sydney. So we had a little talk about staying in her bed!!
It's so much fun watching the kids get older and do new things, and we are so blessed to have the privilege to raise and train them for the glory of God! All in all, it's been a good start to my week home with the kiddos!

YEAH Justin!! We're so proud of you, big boy! We'll pray you stay in your big bed every night and morning. That's great that you waited in your bed for mommy :) And Hailey, you are such a big girl having your baby sister in your room with you. You'll be a great example to her, I'm sure....except when you join her in her crib!! Sarah, enjoy this beautiful weather and hope your days go quickly without your husband's help. And speaking as the mom of the late-talker, late-pee-er boy, (no names of course!), I would agree that if your little Justin turns out as well as him, you'll be proud parents :)
love you all sooooo much!xxoxoxoxoxox
