I miss sleep. Real sleep. It has been years since I've slept well for
an entire night (since I was pregnant with Maia) and I miss it. Last
night was the first night that I can remember where all three kids
slept through and all woke up happy! I hope this trend continues! Of
course, I still woke up several times and tossed and turned all night
but if they continue this maybe my body will get used to sleep again
and I can once again enjoy it like I used to.
We had a fun weekend. On Saturday we went shopping at our favorite children's clothing store (Children's Place) and went out to dinner with our friends the Springers. On Sunday we went to a pumpkin patch and the kids had a blast riding in the wagon, running around and jumping in a bouncy house. It was perfect weather too.
I'm not sure I mentioned Maia's 3 year appointment. I took her on Friday and she was 31 lbs, 37 1/4". I am also not sure I mentioned the fact that for the last 6 months, Maia has started stuttering. In the beginning it wasn't much but it's progressively gotten worse so I brought it up to our pediatrician. She said that it's normal for kids her age to stutter because they think faster than they speak but the fact that it's been going on for as long as it has and that it's gotten worse (more than half the conversations we have with her) makes her feel that we should get evaluated. So we have an appointment on the 14th to get it checked out.
We also started giving Lily Prevacid again for reflux. She seems uncomfortable after eating and her sleeping has been fitful so we're hopeful that it will help. She doesn't vocally complain during the day but she stretches funny and tries to tear her shirt off so it does seem that something is wrong. Hopefully this will be a short term thing but we'll see how it goes.

I am so happy to hear that all 3 girls slept through the night on the same night! That is awesome and I also hope it continues and that you can get a full night's sleep soon. Sweet dreams!
