Smiles

I love it!!! Colton flashed me his gummy, crooked smile for the first time last week and I could only catch it on my cell phone. As soon as I got out my camera he would look serious, we'll have to work on that with all the pictures I like to take and scrapbooks he is going to have about him!  This picture just melts my heart, not to mention when he does it in person.  I love my days with him and the nights too, he's going through a phase this week of not sleeping much in the day or night, so hopefully he gets better at that soon. 

Time is flying

I can't believe Colton will be 4 weeks tomorrow and month old on Tuesday! I want to hold on to every cuddly little moment with him. It's fun to watch him become more alert and take everything in but I don't want it to fly by and especially my time off from work. I'm already sad at the idea of leaving him. My mother in law is talking about whether it could be possible for her to keep him when I go back to work. I would love this but she's not sure if it can work. I've found an in home day care in town that is my other option and it seems nice but he'll have to be there so much and not with me:( He's now a pro at breastfeeding and we're working on the sleeping schedule. Bobby and I have been sleeping on the couch because he only wants to sleep in his swing but we are happy to get some precious sleep the past few nights so tonight we are going to start working on moving back to the crib and hopefully we'll be able to sleep in our bed again at some point! I spend a lot of time just sitting and watching him, it's still so amazing to me that he is here and is ours.
