Brag brag



I feel like I am about to brag, but I don't care too much because we have a child who screams during social gatherings and doesn't really like being passed around and fights day time naps so much that he makes himself crazy and red faced with exhaustion so these little victories are a BIG deal to me! :)

Here it is:

AMBROSE SLEPT THROUGH THE NIGHT!!!!!!!

Well pretty much. I put him in bed at 9pm and heard him gurgling happily to himself while I got some work done and then he was out... no crying. I didn't hear from him again until a few minutes before 6am.

BOOYEAH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Anyway, enough of that. I am just elated and happy and a little bit well rested and it feels awesome. Fortunately we will be trekking over to the mainland soon, but unfortunately it could mess this dream come true up- traveling, different time differences and environment...etc. We will see.

This weekend we went to a graduation picnic for Thomas' practicum and he did pretty good. We also went to the Palmer's last night because they made Thomas a celebration dinner and he did pretty good there too. Things are looking up for the sweet chicken.

We finally got him to sleep after the picnic by putting him in here and walking around the block.

At the picnic...

Thomas trying to get him to sleep on the way to a friends house. He loves the carriers. I think it makes him feel secure.

Sweet little chicken is growing up! I am so glad you are going to be staying at Brittany's house not mine if he isn't going to be sleeping through the night. I am excited to see the both of you though!
