Milestones


A few exciting things happened this week.


1. Grant graduated to size 1 diapers and 0-3 month-size clothing. He's a growing boy and we are so happy his body is strong and healthy.


2. On Saturday Grant smiled at me for the first time. I was up close to his face while smiling and saying, "Grant can you smile for mommy?" Then out of no where his face lit up with a huge smile. It was so adorable and it made my day.


3. Last night Grant had his late night feeding around 10pm. He was in his crib asleep by 10:45pm and he slept soundly until 6am!!!! Woohoo!!! I've worked hard on trying to establish a schedule for him and it seems like it's paying off. Yipee!!! We'll see if this continues.

Sean has the magic touch with calming Grant down. Our bishop and his wife came over to visit a couple nights ago and Grant was unhappy. Sean took him and rocked him right to sleep.


"Not another picture mom. Please. I just want to relax." -Grant


Fresh and clean after a bath, Grant is lounging on the couch while it is snowing outside.

Love the pictures! I'm so glad you got 7 straight hours of sleep! Amazing! It will get better and better, too. Funny how once you have kids, you start counting the hours of sleep you get every night.

Oh, he's so cute! I love when his mouth is just a big (or little) circle. Glad you could finally get some sleep!

Isn't it crazy how time flies with little babies? They change so quickly! It's even worse with your second! Good job getting him on a schedule! It can be such a struggle, but I can't not having a schedule. Are you using a "technique" or just doing what you think is best?
