New Year and New Abilities

Haven't posted much about Phoebe Rae over the last few months. It's not because pictures weren't taken or we haven't enjoyed her company. Over the winter months we have enjoyed time together on Friday afternoons or evenings and of course our Sunday lunch times. After our adventure to the Journey Restaurant one Sunday afternoon as a family, we decided that would be the last time we'd eat out with Phoebe until she got a little bit better behaved.
She really was a pill! So Sunday lunches have been at Yia'yia's and Papouli's. Something new for Phoebe and Yia-yia is our Sunday afternoon nap. One week she would go down for love or money. The next week I thought I'd take her to my bed and lay down with her. It took 45 minutes for her to finally to fall asleep. The next week not as long. And last week, only 15 minutes! Yeah Phoebe! This gives her mom and dad a little break to relax or run an errand or look at houses. Yes they are looking for a home that has at least three bedrooms. I wonder where they'll land.


One of the things we do at Yia-yia's and Papouli's is read books. She loves to be read to and to look at books by herself. She's now into playing dolls too. One night while I was watching her at her house, she walked around the ottoman, picked up the basked with the wipes and diapers, and proceed to change her dolly's diaper just like she gets hers changed!!!
