Thomas has been going through a couple of exciting growth spurts lately...very exciting to see! He's is more and more alert during the day and sleeping even harder at night. I can't begin to describe how amazing it has been to watch him grow and develop right before our eyes! Being able to wake him up each day and get a smile from him when he finally focuses his sleepy eyes is the best way to start a morning! Dad usually receives a picture email from my phone when Thomas is up for the day with some sort of "Good Morning Daddy!" message and then updates throughout the day. Then when Joe gets home he immediately "scrubs in" and starts Daddy duty. They are well on their way to being best friends and its a bond that I love to see develop! I was able to get to lunch with girlfriends yesterday and Joe and Thomas were able to relax and watch their very first baseball game together...I'm sorry I missed it!
Thomas and I also survived our first night alone this weekend. Joe had a bachelor party on Saturday night and that left Thomas and I to fend for ourselves. We tried watching a Baby Einstein DVD, which somewhat held Thomas's attention, and did a lot of playing with his activity center. He's loving that more and more these days and is just mesmerized by the star at the top that lights up and plays music. He will stare at that and smile and dance his heart out!
On Sunday it was so gorgeous out that we bundled Thomas up and took him for his first walk. It was great to be able to be outdoors and so fun to finally use his stroller. We've been waiting almost 4 months for that! Thomas seemed to enjoy it, he feel asleep pretty quickly, just like he does in the car. We had to stop by our neighbors house to show them who was out and about in the neighborhood...and to practice getting the stroller up and down stairs. That's something that I'll have to practice a little bit more!
