I am taking the rare opportunity of an afternoon Harry nap to blog! This is one of the few times I have gotten Harry to sleep in his crib in the middle of the day! Hooray!! We even made it through the garbage truck going by and the dogs barking at it! As a matter of fact, sleeping the past few nights have gone tremendously well. Tuesday and Wednesday night he slept the WHOLE NIGHT and last night he made it until 6am, then he ate and slept until 8:30! I can't put into words how happy this makes me and how much better I feel! We'll see how this holds up this weekend when I have to go in early. It's a good thing this came when it did. Tuesday afternoon was probably one of the most trying days I have had with Harry ever. I got home from work at about 2pm. I was tired, he was exausted. Good time to take a nap, right?? Wrong. He would have none of it! It was so hard...I can take care of him just fine when I am tired (I'm used to that!) but when he is cranky it is a different story. I was so thankful when Trav got home from work. I kind of passed him off for a while so I could get my bearings again. Then he fell and cut his lip on a toy and I was back in Mommy mode again. Sigh. Then he went and made it all better by letting us sleep for a whole night. I love my kid.
All of that and I'm helpful too!! Last week we had all kinds of fun playing with Andrew and Noah! Well, I don't know how much fun they had, but Harry had a blast playing with all of their toys! The funniest moment was when I pulled out a container of Puffs and the three of them were going at it trying to get to them! It was so funny...poor Harry didn't stand much of a chance but he managed to get a few pieces! It was pretty cool though, he used the boys to get his balance and actually stood on his own for a few seconds! His balance has been getting much better this past week. Oh lord--he wears me out with all of the crawling. I can't imagine what it will be like when he is walking around!!

Harry got to spend some time with Uncle Chris and Esther last Saturday while Travis and I went to the game. I think they had a lot of fun! They even ordered a pizza while we were gone and saved the leftovers for us! Free babysitting, free dinner, hmmm....I think I may invite them over every weekend! Sunday we finally got together with the Blessinger's to exchange Christmas presents. Morley and Collin are both getting so big! Morley is sooo sweet, I wish we got to see all of them more! She is sitting up now and she will be crawling before we know it! Karen made us some yummy lasagna to boot. Gosh, I'm starting to feel like a mooch from all of this free food! We had such a great time!
Harry is starting to wave! He did it for the first time the other day when I was feeding him in his highchair! It was so cute...I wasn't even waving at him, he just did it! He now mimics us when we do it to him. Travis said he even waved at one of the dogs last night. So cute!! He has also come down with a little bit of a cold, just a runny nose, some congestion, and his voice is a little raspy. I think we are just going to take it easy this weekend and try to get a little rest so it doesn't turn into anything worse.
I LOVE my Fridge Farm!
