Welcome to the new blog!
When we left the old, beloved blog, our lives had been disordered somewhat by Frances completely giving up on her old reliable sleeping schedule. This was very painful for all of us. Over several months, the pieces have started to fall back into place and life is regaining some sense of order. (This may sound dramatic, but a two year-old without a predictable sleeping schedule is not a pretty sight.) One strategy we used up until the time change was to run Frances ragged after school, in hopes that she would finally relax and sleep at night. Very useful strategy, and it got us all out and about. The Arnold Arboretum came in very handy.
Ooh, she is so cool on her bike.
I know Mark and I picked this spot for a photo because of the beautiful leaves; I'm fairly certain Frances was hunting bears.
Hello, from the pond!
Mark says these are some of the nicest photos I've ever taken of Frances and him together.
They are nice photos, but that makes me think I need to take more nice photos of them and less shots of them hiding under blankets. We'll see.
And then the time changed. The sun now goes down at about 4, and trips to the Arboretum seem grim to this cold-averse mother. Plus, Frances refuses to wear jackets. Plus, she doesn't seem to need to be run ragged to get to bed anymore, thank goodness.
