Sibyl is six months old. The time has gone by so quickly! We've all adjusted to the routine of going to school and both girls love their classrooms. Sibyl has two teeth coming in and possibly a third. She has started eating peas, green beans, oatmeal, and cream of wheat. Everything that comes close to her has to be in her mouth so she is pretty easy to feed.
I am pretty sure Sibyl is left-handed. They say that you aren't supposed to know until they're older, but she goes for everything with her left hand... it just seems obvious to me. Some of her favorite things are: blowing raspberries, whacking toys on different surfaces to hear the sounds they make, putting everything in her mouth, and being sung to. Iris sings this song to her, thanks to Bubble Guppies.
Evan has started his new job and his level of stress has plummeted, partially because he works from home primarily, but mostly because he no longer is working on nights and weekends. He has read maybe 3 books (for pleasure) since he started about four weeks ago. Two of those are: Cloud Atlas by David Mitchell and The Sleep Revolution: Transforming Your Life, One Night at a Time by Arianna Huffington.
For my part, I've submitted a first final draft of my dissertation to my advisor. I have lots of work to do still, but I plan to defend my dissertation before October so I can graduate in December. Once I'm done with it, I've decided to take up a couple hobbies: crocheting and photography.
