How fast do you think the next six will go?

You are such a good and loving mom. I can't believe Eva is six either...I still remember he as this tiny and chubby and cute little 3-month-old from when we live in Santa Clara. I still remember you telling me about her stinky neck. :) do you know what I'm talking about? She has grown into a lovely (and I'm sure not at all stinky) little girl!Lindsayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08642919192774954396noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1154486837032170560.post-65850483959128132982009-02-26T15:33:00.000-07:002009-02-26T15:33:00.000-07:00Perfect post.

Wow, time really does fly. She is so special and so beautiful. I'm glad for both of you that you have each other.Michellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05954150275358104391noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1154486837032170560.post-14422933547778818192009-02-26T10:01:00.000-07:002009-02-26T10:01:00.000-07:00What a sweet girl and a sweet post!

My other two have Brian's blue eyes and I remember telling Emi when she was still in my belly that if she didn't come out with brown eyes and brown hair, I was sending her back. I guess she listened.Jamiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00008671017095024968noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1154486837032170560.post-20826628794569350342009-02-26T06:10:00.000-07:002009-02-26T06:10:00.000-07:00This is my favorite post of yours!

You are a great mom. Happy Birthday Eva!!!<BR/><BR/>Here is what I am doing with Jaxton. First thing, I bought him a tiny little flash light that he can put under his pillow. This way if he ever gets scared he can turn it on. Since him and Gabby share a room I couldn't do a night light because Gabby won't sleep with one on. And then I bought a roll of those "admit one tickets" and a cardboard piggy bank. Every morning Jaxton wakes up if he layed alone in his room the night before and sleeps in his own room all night he gets a ticket. (He is allowed to come in to our room to talk to us if he is scared, he just can't sleep in our bed). Then he gets a ticket which he puts in the box. After he earns 10 tickets he gets to either choose a new toy or pick a fun outing to go on. I am hoping that he will make a habit out of it and we won't have to continue the ticket thing after 10. He responds well to incentives, so this is working well for us. Hope it helps you. The flashlight thing has been awesome! Samuel might really like that. Good luck. I hope something works for you too. :)Angelahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04591692802836707568noreply@blogger.com
