The Vandevers: Nighttime Parenting
http://thevandevers.blogspot.com/2013/05/nighttime-parenting.html
Wednesday, May 22, 2013. Parenting children at night is a very stretching task. Fatigue easily leads to anger and grumpiness. Last night may have been one of the most challenging in our parenting careers yet. So, last night we tried putting Emma in her nursery (the room that shares a wall with Ethan's room). This is how it went.:. 9:30- Ethan and Emma go to sleep. Emma is put in her bouncy seat in her crib. 2:30- Emma wakes up to nurse. 3:30-4:30- Ethan gets up at least 2 more times. You are so patient i...

The Vandevers: The Battle
http://thevandevers.blogspot.com/2009/03/battle.html
Tuesday, March 17, 2009. So, Jason suggested I start counting calories. He is so practical. I found this website called http:/ caloriecount.about.com/. That counts your calories every day. Now, just to preface this I have never wanted to be one of. People being the people that obsess. About everything they eat. I just want to be a real person and eat what I like but in moderation. By signing up on this website I became one of. People and found out a lot about myself. April 20, 2009 at 10:43 AM. Hey, I've...

The Vandevers: Emma!
http://thevandevers.blogspot.com/2013/05/emma.html
Tuesday, May 28, 2013. I love me some Baby Girl Emma! Just look at her. How sweet is she? I am so glad that we have made it to 3 months. on Saturday. She is doing so well! She just started to put herself to sleep on her back at night. She has never liked to nurse to sleep at night. She will cluster feed and then have me hold her while she falls asleep. Last night she nursed at 9:30, put herself to sleep at 10:30, and then slept until 4:15. Wow. Way better than her brother. Her little personality is start...

The Vandevers: Stubborn Girl
http://thevandevers.blogspot.com/2014/04/stubborn-girl.html
Sunday, April 27, 2014. Our family has come down with another stomach bug this week. So, guess what Emma did? She still isn't eating a lot and has had some yucky diapers. All signs that she is still sick. I'll keep offering to nurse for a few days and we'll see if she's really done. I don't want to take something away that she and I both love and has been so good for us. I won't push too hard though. If she's done, she's done. We'll see how it goes. Cookies on the bottom shelf.

The Vandevers: 8 hours!
http://thevandevers.blogspot.com/2013/06/8-hours.html
Friday, June 7, 2013. My little girl slept 8 hours last night. Wow. It took Ethan about 8 months to master that. Emma is ahead of the game in that department. When we first brought her home from the hospital, we were unprepared. We had the pack n play set up but couldn't find the bassinet part. We thought- "Ah! Ethan at 3 months- in bed at 9, up at 12, 3, 5 or 6, and then at 9. Emma at 3 months- in bed at 9ish, up at 5, in bed with us until 7:30 or 8. Emma sleeping at the hospital. In Mom and Dad's bed i...

The Vandevers: Ethan vs. Emma
http://thevandevers.blogspot.com/2013/04/ethan-vs-emma.html
Wednesday, April 24, 2013. Ethan vs. Emma. Now that I am a mother of 2, I can compare one child to the other. Here are some ways they are different. Ethan- took right to a pacifier at one month. Emma- hates a pacifier and gets very mad if you try to put one in her mouth. Ethan- would let you put him down to sleep in his swing or bouncy seat. Emma- will only let me put her down to sleep in her swing at night. During the day, she prefers to nap in the Baby Bjorn. Emma- moderately tolerates tummy time.

The Vandevers: From Oswald
http://thevandevers.blogspot.com/2009/03/from-oswald.html
Tuesday, March 31, 2009. Have you ever thought, what is the point of prayer? I like how Oswald explains it below in context of praying for others. Oswald Chambers -today's devo from Utmost (see side link). It is so interesting that God uses prayer to change our hearts and make our minds more like Christ. There is such reward in it. I think not because we do it, but because we become more like Jesus when we do it sincerely. There is nothing better than that! Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).
