Early to Bed, Early to Rise...

I just realized that Daylight Saving Time ends this weekend - at 2:00 a.m. on Sunday.
I used to love getting that extra hour of sleep... but with a 2-year-old that likes to rise with the chickens each morning, I'm kind of dreading it now. Saturday will be a busy day for Henry, and I'm sure he'll be up later than normal, so hopefully that will help counteract a super early wake-up time. Hopefully!

I just read this New York Times story about to how help kids adjust to DST. They say within 5 days, kids adjust to the time change... here's hoping!

Happy Birthday, Nana!

Henry and Teddy are sending you a special birthday message!

Hope you have a wonderful day!

Love, The Lechners

Girl's Night Out

On Friday night, I had my first night out on the town since Teddy was born. Woo-hoo!

My mom, sister-in-law Laura and I went to see Little House on the Prairie at the Guthrie. It was wonderful. I grew up reading the books and watching the TV show, so it was fabulous to see it come to life on stage. Melissa Gilbert plays "Ma" in the musical - very cool!

At intermission, Laura and I had a few "LHOTP"-themed drinks... she had a Prairie Passionflower and I had a Naughty Nellie.

Although I missed the boys, it was nice to have a night out. Now on to planning the next one!

PS... Teddy is officially smiling now and even cooing a bit. I will post a pic of his smile - as soon as Matt uploads the pics (hint, hint). :) Yes, I know I need to learn how to do it!
