What a Great Day!

Yesterday was my first Mother's Day. It was such a great day!! MiMi and Poppy (my parents) were here. Noah sent me the cutest e-card which I viewed on the new laptop he got me. He's very thoughtful.

That wasn't the best part of the day though... We dedicated Noah at church. We are so blessed to have such a great church family!! Noah was so good during the dedication. He just snuggled daddy. (He even wore my baby shoes.) After church we had friends and family over to celebrate. Greg and Poppy did all the cooking. And Greg cleaned up everything by himself. (He even washed the china we used.)

I've been a little tardy on my blogging lately... Noah hates tummy time. He'd much rather be on his back. So, last Saturday, I put him down on his back and he would have none of it! He just rolled himself right over to his back. I thought it was just an accident. When I flipped him back over onto his tummy, he turned right back over to his back. Over a two day period, he did it six or seven times. Now, he won't do it...

Noah has been sleeping all night for two and a half weeks now. I'm so proud of him! Sometimes he still gets up a 5:30... I keep telling him that's too early for little boys to be up, but he insists he's hungry and can't wait... They say never wake a sleeping baby, but I strongly disagree!! I wake him up during the day when it's time to eat. I really think that makes him sleep better at night. He's such a happy baby!

He's been escaping from his swaddle blanket (which we've nicknamed his burrito) a little more frequently... The one he escapes from just barely goes around him now. He doesn't seem to escape from the bigger ones. He just sleeps so good in them, I can't bring myself to put him down without one.
