Last weekend, Elise had her very first haircut! Both girls were getting a little shaggy, so we had them trimmed up and evened out.
Claire & Elise After Haircuts
Elise did good for her first haircut. She was a little wiggly, but didn't fuss much.

At around six weeks, Anna started sleeping consistently from 8:30 pm until 4:00 am! I am thrilled to be getting more sleep at night, but also the extra time in the late evening to get work done.
We have enjoyed Anna's increasing quiet alert time and the kids have enjoyed holding her, singing to her, and showing her toys. In the picture above, Anna is distracted by Claire and a dangling toy.
We don't put her on the floor as much as we probably should. The floor is a dangerous place at our house! In the short time I had her on the blanket to take photos, the girls literally ran circles around her (I thought for sure she was going to be trampled!) and couldn't resist snuggling right up to her (which is not a bad thing, except Elise doesn't know boundaries and will keep snuggling until she's on top of Anna!).
