Tomorrow is Seth's birthday...I can't believe he's two already! It shouldn't be so hard for me to believe since we have yet another newborn! It's always amazing, isn't it when birthdays/anniversaries roll around...it reminds you of how quickly the time passes. We haven't decided what we'll do after Todd's classes-we may try to take the kids to Chuck E. Cheese or somewhere like that. I know Seth doesn't really care, although he enjoys those places, too. The kids get so excited on birthdays...it's a big deal. :-)
I was reminded tonight of a story I forgot to tell about Stuart. My sister gave my parents a pup when she was home for Christmas-a Jack Russell named Annie. The kids love her. On Sundays after church we usually go to my mom's house for lunch...the kids go to get Annie and have snagged some of their good clothes. One Sunday I was putting a sweater on Stuart and I told him, "When we get to Mawmaw's house, you need to take this sweater off before you get around Annie, okay or her toenails will tear it". My mom teaches his Sunday School class in the nursery-he was informing her that he needed to take his sweater off at her house so Annie didn't tear it. She said, "Well Pawpaw did cut her toenails, so maybe they won't be as sharp" He says, "Well, you need to cut her teeth-they are sharp, too". :-)
Savannah isn't usually fussy, but she did seem to be tonight. It is frustrating when you get them calmed down, lay them down and start doing something else, just in time for them to start fussing again. We sat down to eat supper, she was fine in the swing, and then she started again. Spencer says, "You two sit down, I'll get her paci". It was so sweet. I appreciate when the bigger ones take initiative and help out. I love it that they are so fascinated by the baby and so in love with her. Of course, I know this too shall pass...here in a few months when she's big enough to get into their stuff! :-)
Savannah was four weeks old yesterday...once again hard to believe the time is passing so quickly. She is so sweet and such a good baby.

I'm so proud of how you jump right back into life after having a baby, Jennifer. Savannah may be four weeks already, but you're as relaxed as if she were four months. That's great! I wish more people were like that.
