2 months old

I'm about a week late in posting this but Colton is 2 months old now and I go back to work in a little more than two weeks:(  I actually miss work a little but am having  really hard time with the idea of leaving Colton at day care for 10-11 hours a day. I want to be the person who gets to see everything he does all day!  He had his two month shots on Monday and was a pretty good sport about it. I think it was harder for me to watch.  We are having so much fun together, he wants to see everything and is full of smiles and of course I love just cuddling with him. 

Colton's Dedication

Sunday during our regular church service Colton had his dedication ceremony. Some good friends of ours Tracy and Tara gave us the cutest little suit and Bobby's mom helped with some minor alterations. A big thank you to all of you. Colton was so cute in his suit and slept through almost the entire ceremony. He gave pastor Phil a couple of squeaks at the end but overall did very well.  Bobby grew up in this church and I have been attending with him for quite a while now so it was nice to share this with Colton and have the congregation support us and Colton in our spiritual journey.  

Ahhh, sleep!

For about the last week, my dear sweet baby has not been sleeping. The nighttime difficulties are expected but he has been going on sprees of awakeness for as many as 8-10 hours during the day with no nap no matter what I do. For the most part he is happy and doesn't want to miss anything but by the end of the day is grumpy and so tired it makes me sad for him. Car rides have helped at times but not always.  So the fabulous news is that yesterday and today he has taken naps, been very happy and last night slept for a couple of 4 hour stretches, which is a record!  He is currently sleeping in his swing, which is this picture and I pray for continued good rest for my little guy! So I'm off to get a few things done while he is sleeping!
