This weekend, my big boy hit a big milestone at Papa's house. He took his first steps. I think it was a big let down for him when we got back home because there were only two people to clap for him. He loved the attention of 8 of us cheering him on at Papa's. So much so, that he didn't start walking again until today.
We have been working on our sign language, and while he "asks" for more all the time, he did it the right way on his own for the first time. Usually it looks like clapping when he asks for more, but he actually got just his fingertips together.
Another big thing that happened this week was the wonderful night that I got a full nights rest. I had forgotten what that felt like. For the rest of you mommies that are asking what this "full nights rest" thing is, it is wonderful!
Bryan went to bed at around 9, woke up two hours later for a snack. I somehow managed to get him back to sleep in the crib. I went right to bed after that and didn't wake up until 7:30.
Warning: Husband brag. Bryan actually woke up at 3, but that wonderful man woke up and put him back to sleep without waking me up. How he got the baby to sleep in a timely manner without a boobie, I will never know.
I wish I could be worried about jinxing the full nights sleep, but it only happened that once. Oh well. Eventually we will get there.
It always makes my heart smile to see my two babies cuddling. And I always love that girls smile. |
Apparently we love Cheetos.
