Busy, Busy, Busy.

That is the word I would use to describe Athena these days. She Just started school this week and so far so good. She will go on Monday and Wednesday mornings, giving Mommy some much needed alone time. She has seemed to "grow up" all at once too. About a month ago she told me " I am too big for diapers". She was right. Before that day, I could count on two hands the number of times she woke up dry. Since that day I can count on ONE hand the number of times she didn't quite make it until morning. Woo hoo! I thought that day would never come.

She has started to take an interest in books, coloring and playdoh. Before, all she wanted to do was run and jump and imagine. You will see this sun she made all by herself. Rolling each ray carefully and placing it just so.

She is sleeping really well too, (except for a few days last week). She goes to bed around 7:45pm and wakes up around 7:45 am. Gotta love that. Some days she just sings in her bed until 8:30 or so giving me and Daddy an hour or so to have our tea (in Paul's case, coffee) and to read the paper. Growing up is good.
