Who Needs sleep??

Not Me!!

Harry's first Thanksgiving has come and gone...I can't believe it! I had to work until 4, so Travis and Harry went to Granny's first. Then I got a special visit at work from the two turkeys in person! It was really special since they can't come by and see me much anymore since we moved. Then we went to Mom and Dad's after I got off work and had dinner. George and Audra and Aiden came over too and both of my Grandmas were also there. We had a great dinner and a good time. We had so much to be thankful for this year...our son, a nephew, a new home, good jobs, great family, and let's not forget our wonderful pets! Harry's dinner was especially exciting...he got to eat turkey just like the rest of us! Well, not just like the rest of us as it was nicely pureed and mixed with sweet potatoes by the fine folks at Gerber, but he is now a meat-eater! Personally, I thought it was really disgusting but it went over just fine with him. Last night we had chicken with apples and he liked that too. I hope this non-pickiness lasts into toddlerhood!

Although I had to work Thursday, I had Friday and the weekend off. We had such a great time together. It had been a long while since we had been able to not have any plans over the weekend and just do what we wanted! I finally got to see one of Harry's swim classes, we braved the crowds and did some shopping, put up Christmas decorations, and did some cleaning and organizing around the house. Dad came over on Saturday and helped Travis hang up Harry's TV and valances. Travis also finally caved and let us get the Pottery Barn Dream Rocker for Harry's room that I have been wanting! So now his room is finally how I want it! It is perfect. I will post a picture after we receive the slipcover for the rocker!



This phone makes a great chew toy!

About the title for this post...one of Harry's top front teeth is finally through and the other one is right behind it. These have really been rough on the poor little guy and not much sleep has been had around our house lately! Last night, he went to bed around 9:30, was up about 1am, back up at 2:50am, stayed up for an hour, got passed off to Daddy so Mommy could get an hour of sleep before she got up at 5am and was up again at 6am as Mommy was leaving for work. I think he and Travis got a few hours of sleep after I left. Last night was probably the worst we have had for a while, but he has not slept well with this round of teething at all. I feel so sorry for him. He seems fine during the day, but the nights are so hard for all of us! Thank goodness he took a nap with me when I got home from work! Hopefully he will let me get a picture of it soon!

















I saved the best news for last...I think I can now say that Harry is crawling! Last night I think something finally clicked with him. He kind of shuffles and is really slow, but he is definitely moving all four limbs and getting somewhere. We will also have to lower his crib yet again because he can almost pull himself up to a standing position. Do they really have to grow up this fast??






Mom and Dad have no chance!!
