Fussy Time

So lately John has been very fussy for several periods of each day. Here are some solutions we have found for his fussyness (sp?). Above you can see him in his bouncy seat. That seems to calm him at sometimes. Thanks to the Doherty's for this.
Oddly enough, he seems to calm down when we watch Rick Steves' PBS programs about traveling through Europe.

The Armatige family was nice enough to give me a baby sling. John seems to enjoy cozying up to me in it.

I think we all know the real reason behind his fussyness... the Buckeye's loss on Monday night. Oh well, maybe next year. In the meantime, please pray for Dave and I to get some sleep!

Love the cute fussy faces :) I hope you guys are getting more sleep! It really does get MUCH BETTER when they are about 4 months old...then you just fill their little tummies with some rice cereal and the miracle of sleeping through the night occurs. Happy New Year,
Rebekah, Joseph, and Evely

Congratulations Van Yperen family!

Sorry we are very late, but we have been travelling and I finally checked the NBA site and found this blog. We are so happy that you have a new healthy family member. I hope John sleeps more and lets you sleep more. I would give you awesome parenting advice, but I don't have any. I am looking forward to your advice when we start our little family though. Life is good in Honduras, my parents came down to visit for Christmas/New Year's, and it was awesome.

Take care,

P.S. I have been terrible about blogging, but if you want to see some recent pics from Honduras, you can check this site out: http://www.pbase.com/littlekc/honduras
