Our Morning

So this morning has been both a blessing and a difficult time. Jeanine is feeling so well! We went back to basics with sleep training her yesterday and last night, and she actually fell asleep for her nap this morning without crying at all. She's baaaaack! I finally have a beautiful happy baby who's fun to be around...and who sleeps well! Hooray! John has been the extreme opposite, however it's mostly my fault. Over the last month and a half of being terribly sick and also stressed and taking care of sick children, we simply got out of the habit of immediate discipline and consistent training. So, the poor boy is back in Baby Bootcamp in the discipline arena and it hasn't been pleasant for him to relearn the fact that he needs to obey mommy ALL the time, Without Challenge, Without Excuse, and Without Delay (Shepherding a Child's Heart by Tedd Tripp). We've already had more spankings than I kept count of but I do see us making some progress and he's beginning to listen to my voice more and more and obey with a cheerful heart, praise God! I just continue to pray that the Holy Spirit come over him and guide him to make good choices instead of acting sinful. It's hard being the mother of a toddler!

And on to more fun activities, this is what John and Jeanine did this morning for about 30 minutes until she got fed up with flying past mama, lol! (Oh and John did get a turn after Jeanine...he loved it so much I think this will be a regular activity in our house! Good thing we only paid $20 for that high chair on Craigslist)
