2 months old

And I celebrated the day by breaking out the 'big boy pants'! {Ok really, not for lack of trying, but I just hadn't found anything small enough to fit him up til now ... but he's sporting his little brown cords today and looking too cute for words!} December tomorrow and so the Christmas onesie was added to the ensemble as well ... thanks for that, Brenda! Cast #4 goes on Wednesday and Sam is able to come with me up to Saskatoon as well this time. So glad for that as it's meant to get pretty cold this week with possible flurries. This past week has been monumental as I've been able to implement the Eat-Play-Sleep (Babywise) routine and I've been proven wrong in my doubt as it's worked like a charm with Henry to get him down for long afternoon naps each day! I can't tell you what a difference this has made to my life and his temperament. Not getting overtired in the evenings when he hasn't slept all day but for a few 20 minute catnaps. Someone's growing up and I'm so proud of our boy!

(And let's be honest ... for all the Henry photos I post ... and literally they could be daily and by the dozens ... this really is a Grandparent's Blog ... giving them some eye candy while we're so far away. We can't wait to see both sets of parents again in just a few weeks! They won't believe how much he's changed...)

eat-play-sleep is Brady's favorite schedule too! It was working fabulously until those little teeth started poking through...but we'll get through this with a little help from my friend Motrin and Hyland's Teething tablets :)

Hooray for Babywise! We owe our personal and marital sanity to that book. Our children one day will realize that they also owe their lives to it because their parents weren't driven to desperate acts due to sleep deprivation!!

Good job, family!
