Hello and happy Thursday!
February is just chugging along, isn’t it? Speaking of time moving quickly, I enjoyed writing the January 2010 Throwback Thursday, and it’s hard to believe that 2010 was SIXTEEN years ago! Today, I’m taking a look back at what we were up to in February of that year.
So, when I decided to do these TBT posts and focus on an entire year, I didn’t really think that when looking back at the first few months of the kids’ lives, these posts wouldn’t really be action packed! haha! I do like having these memories to look back on though…
The kids would often nap in the same crib…it just seemed that they always wiggled their way to each other and this kept it easy. I’d forgotten about how we used to wrap them up like little burritos! Pro tip at the time was to put down a “sheet saver” or “crib bib,” so if one of them spit up, we didn’t have to change the sheets. Maybe that’s still a “pro tip” now…
Hadley was a very intense baby. Around this time, we realized she had acid reflux and colic…she spent a lot of her time on her belly.
Hayden was the easiest baby without a care in the world. Sometimes, if I had laundry to take upstairs, I’d just transport him this way. haha
Boppy time, belly time, and a paci was often the only way to soothe Hadley.
First Valentine’s Day! Look at Hadley’s cute little heart onsie. Don’t worry…they didn’t eat the chocolate! That being said, of course we read the book.
I’m not sure why I didn’t find something else, but I used the top of a box (ha!) to mark each month.
February can provide some mild temps, so we did go outside whenever we could. Looking at this double stroller kind of stops my heart! What a flashback.
We had time to play dress up! I remember that my cousin gave Hadley this sweet butterfly dress. Very rare to see a smile from Hadley, so she must have loved the dress too 😉
Of course, the days with two three month olds really did center around feedings and naps. They were sleeping through the night by twelve weeks, so I think we were hitting our stride around then. I’ve always been grateful for my good sleepers, but I think the consistency, routine, and schedule helped with that too!
Have a great Thursday!

What a fun look back at such a special season of life! When our first granddaughter was born in 2022, I was surprised to learn that the recommendation now is nothing in the crib with the infant – no blanket, no wedgie (like in my day). Rather, when going to sleep she was zipped into a sleepsack. It was so cute. This was a big learning curve for this Grand!

So sweet! I can’t remember when you went back to work? I went back when mine were 4 months in January and then only had to make it until May and summer with them again full time. They were a great age that first summer!
