Naps

Wesley has had a hard time with sleeping. He's pretty good at sleeping through the night (thank goodness), but naps have been a challenge off and on. For half of a week last week we because a dream napper. I could put him down in bed at nap time, and he would go to sleep twice a day. Oh, those for days were like a dream....and then it ended.

Today he fell asleep during lunch. I was able to pick him up, but as soon as I put him down he started screaming. I tried leaving him for a few minutes, but it didn't work. He fell asleep in my arms a couple of times, but he would wake up every time I tried to put him down. Oh, and he was grumpy because he was so tired...Blah! At least he is super cute.

Any advice on napping?

Night out

Starting last week Bret now works three days a week that are at least 11 hours long. So the last two Tuesdays he is home. He isn't working at many hours which equals less pay, but I love having him home four days a week.

We this week we went to my favorite restaurant, Cafe Sabor. We had a 50% coupon and a survey to complete. It was a perfect September evening, and we enjoyed dinner out on the patio. Really it was an all around delightful evening.

Wes has a new fun game I like to call "Thank you." It involves us passing an item back and forth and saying, "Thank you" when receive it. I don't think you can hear on the video, but the way Wes says thank you in a half whisper is so cute.

Books and Music

Wesley does not sit still very much, but if he is sitting still it's probably because of a book. He loves books, especially this one with with wheels that turn.

Wes finally figured out to make music with his xylophone. I was surprised it took him this long to figure it out since he enjoys hitting objects with other objects.

Still so fun to watch him play and learn. What a fun time.

Really Standing

I was trying to get a picture of Wes because he had a Cheerio stuck on his head, and I got a couple of pictures of him standing too. He's starting to stand more and more and for longer and longer.

Snuggle-Saurus Wes

I ordered the costume on Tuesday afternoon, and it came Wednesday morning. I was shocked and excited it came so fast.

He look so cute in it, but he hates things on his head. Hopefully he will get over that in the next month.

Speaking of snuggle...

My Monkey Toes Then and Now

Wesley has same monkey jammies in newborn and 9 month sizes.

What a difference a few months can make.

Almost Home

This is what I see when I am almost home. I love all the farms.

(I took the picture without looking at the camera.)

View inside the car.

View from the top of Wesley's head. Look, he finally has enough hair to have wet hair.

When I was a kid my mom would throw warm laundry on me, and I loved it. So I thought I would enjoy some warm laundry, too.
