Yes, I am posting again so soon and YES there are photos…
It’s spring! It’s spring! It’s spring!
Guess what? It’s spring here! ![]()
Yes, the sun has come out and transformed Vancouver. All the pasty white Canadians are emerging from their dens and gazing at the newly blossomed crocuses and snowdrops. I can feel the energy already – it makes me want to do things like sort photographs and finish my passport application and move every piece of furniture in the upper floor of our house to a new place (including the king-sized bedframe). The spring energy made Tom feel like shaving off all his hair, so one evening we took the clippers to it and now he looks just like Britney Spears.

Anyway, I moved all of our furniture because I decided that the reason Beatrice wasn’t sleeping well during the day was because it wasn’t dark enough in our room. Not because she just doesn’t need much sleep during the day and I just can’t accept that I am never going to get those 1-2 hour long breaks during the day that all the books talk about. No, it was definitely too bright. So Beatrice has her own bedroom now, with a functional shade on the skylight and curtains on the windows. It’s working out pretty well so far, but whether she suddenly turns into a baby who takes long naps remains to be seen.

Also, I think Beatrice has skipped the rolling over stage and has gone straight to sitting up. huh?
By popular request, here are lots more photos.
