I’ve been so busy with photography that I have hardly been able to get on myspace just to look around and post a blog or anything.
So, I’m back to work, I have actually been back since the 10th (SEE, busy!) the transition from being home to working full time, even on the weekends if you count photography, has gone extremely well. Although I was dreading it a lot…I actually really enjoy working and Landen is doing so well at daycare, I think it’s just best for all of us. We were having a really hard time getting him to bed and since daycare he goes to sleep right away and sleeps ALL night, wahoo!! this actually just started on Friday and has happened 3 nights in a row where he sleeps a full 8 hours in his crib and I must say I am loving it…I still tend to wake up around 3 or 4, it’s just habit…but I’ll go right back to sleep…that was happening even while I was pregnant, every night around 3 I would wake up, it’s crazy cuz that was usually when Landen would wake up in the middle of the night, your body SO prepares you for that. He is just getting so big, he’s still little though, but just so big compared to the tiny little fella he was at one point, in 3 months I’ll look back at him now and say he was so tiny! He is starting to get really exciting, he’s moving him arms and legs more, definitely knows mommy and daddy…and smiles and giggles all the time. Yesterday we fed him rice cereal for the first time, he did great, better than I thought he would, he swallowed it right up..it’s tough knowing when they are full but we’ll get the hang of it. He is in between sizes right now, so none of his clothes fit, he’s outgrown newborn and most 0-3 month clothes are just too big still. He’s losing a lot of his beautiful hair, and he still has pretty bad cradle cap, we looked at pics of Josh when he was Landen’s age and he lost all of his hair and then by 6 months, it was back and blonde! So it will be interesting to see if Landen’s does the same.
What else? Well, we’re learning how much kids really cost, yikes! Daycare is soo expensive, and then I quit breastfeeding so we have to buy formula as well, good gosh!! It’s sort of sad that the things that are required to raise a child are so expensive. Josh is still doing well working at Holmes, the new dealership is busier than the old one, but business is still slow and he doesn’t make as much money as he’s worth…but what can ya do…guess it just wasn’t the most lucrative business for him to be in, but we’re doing what we can with what we got. I’m doing great at work, still have the same position at MetLife, we are so insanely busy it’s hard to even stop to think about Landen, I’ve only had 1 or 2 days where I really missed him, but everyday I can’t wait to pick him up. I think that is basically all I have to update everyone with, but I’m including some pictures I took of Landen within this past week, just some snapshots, nothing fancy.
Right after he ate cereal for the first time!.Saying a prayer before we eat.
He likes his bouncer!
He can almost reach, soon he
Look! I can hold the bottle all by myself.
