I'm A Big Deal!

It's funny, the pictures of Preston on my computer are all labeled by the date...and I think there's seriously a folder for practically every day!

So, consider these from the first of December ;)

Play time!

I'd also like to state that I am addicted...

...to buying baby clothes.

He has quite the closet full of clothes, and now that he is inbetween sizes (0-3 and 3 months), I'm just buying like crazy.  As I did his laundry tonight, though - I think I'm going to stop for a while.  HA!

I am happy to say that Preston is now sleeping in his crib at night instead of the bassinet by our bed.  He's only getting up once in the middle of the night which is a lovely change too.

The next hurdle is to start getting him to nap atleast once in his crib during the day, right now he naps in his swing or bouncer seat (it seems to help some of his congestion, and he loves the movement/vibration).  I don't want him to get too used to that, but at the same time, I want to use the items we have!  He's a newborn, why not let him enjoy them while he can, right!?

We are surely in the Christmas spirit around here, I can't wait for my husband to be on break from work - it'll be nice to have all of us in the house at one time again.

The crib didn't work for us for a good long while. We tried it first and she hated it. I enjoyed co-sleeping with Lilly and having her in our bedroom until she was no longer sleeping well. Then it was time to transition to the crib. Then she liked it. Ha! But goodness she's gone through so many sleeping stages, it's just nuts. She can go from sleeping well for three months, then have a week or two of horrible sleep. And let's not even talk about teething and sleep..Ugh. I was never too concerned about whether something would "spoil" her. People were telling me not to hold her too much and that sleeping in our bedroom would make her never want to leave. Neither of those things happened. I guess what I'm saying is that people spend way too much time judging parenting decisions and telling other people how to raise their kids. :)
Anywho, we hardly had to buy anything for Lilly because we got so many clothes at the baby shower. Plus she grew so fast I didn't want to spend a fortune on clothes she'd only wear once. But it is fun to see them in cute outfits. Ha! See y'all soon!
