The past few weeks have been rough for me. I've been taking language classes several afternoons a week, but it hasn't been working out for me to leave Abbie at home while I'm in class. (I've been working on tweaking her schedule to make sure that she won't get hungry while I'm gone, so hopefully I'll be able to leave her home soon.) As you might imagine, a 5-month-old baby does not make it easier to concentrate in class, especially since Abigail is a social butterfly and very skilled already at getting people's attention. :-)
As it turned out, Jonathan and I finished up our units at the same time even though we're in different classes. Since we get a few days off after a test, it was really exciting to think that we might have time to take the kids to a nearby zoo or work on some projects that we don't usually have time for. Alas, Jonathan and I both got sick the very first day of our mini-vacation (also the only day we could go to the zoo). What a bummer! I'm so glad that we could spend our day resting instead of trying to study though.
In other news, I have acquired a baby sling the local women use. Abbie and I both like it, but I haven't figured out how to put it on by myself.

Toby loves his "Dr. Seuss' ABC's" book. One of his favorite pages is the "P" page, which says, "Papa's in the pail." Since we call Jonathan "Papa," Toby thinks that is so fun! One day he randomly decided it was his turn to get in the pail.

Abbie wasn't sure what to think of that idea.
