Everyone knows that Strider and I moved away from our parents, friends, and home just a few months after I found out I was pregnant. Brilliant right? Right. However, we had the good fortune of moving to a town full of people who love us. We have family AND friends. We are so lucky that those friends treat us like family. Jacque and Doug have been excited about Moxie, very giving of their time and attention, and have just been wonderful. We appreciate them so much.
On the topic of Jacque and Doug being good to us… Moxie has finally moved to her own room, into her crib and out of her bassinet. Well, I shouldn’t say “her” bassinet. The bassinet that Moxie spent her first 14 weeks of life in is a family bassinet lent to us by Jacque and Doug. The bassinet has a long history and we are happy to have been a part of it. I can’t believe she’s outgrown it. I will miss all her weird sleeping sounds but I admit–I am sleeping much better these days.

Congrats, Moxie, on this new phase! Jess, I totally know what you are talking about: we really missed her snorts, grunts, farts, and snores when we moved Squirms into her own room and crib. But we have family night every Friday, where we all sleep together in the bed. We don't sleep as well on Fridays, but it's kinda okay… Robin

Robin, that sounds really sweet. I'll have to get with you regarding details about how you actually sleep with her in bed with you guys. I've napped with her before but never actually slept–but given how much I miss her it seems like a really nice treat.

Moxie looks so happy in her bassinet, but I am sure she will love outgrowing her crib too. Thanks Jacque and Doug for the great memories we have of Moxie's peaceful sleep in the bassinet.

i can't believe how much she has grown, based on those bassinet photos. It is trippy!
