what's up with us

Life sure does get busy with these two babies!  Plus Tyler and I have been on a "Breaking Bad" binge so I have been watching that in the evenings instead of blogging ;)  Things are going well around here, especially just in the past couple of days.  Russell has had a sleeping breakthrough THANK GOD!  Up until now I could count on one hand the number of times in his 5 month existence that he has slept for more than 3 hours in a row.  Now he's going to be between 7 and 8:30, depending on when he naps, nursing around midnight or 12:30, and sleeping til 6 am!  It is glorious.  He is such a happy boy in the morning too since I'm sure he feels much more rested.

We recently cemented ourselves in the upper middle class according to Tyler, after the purchase of a Bob double stroller.  Wow, they are PRICEY!  I found a used one on CraigsList in Frisco though and I know we'll be able to resell when we are finished with it.  There's the justification ;)  We might take it out today if the wind isn't too bad!  Palmer of course loves going outside and I have some catching up to do on my running plan.

Russell is grabbing for everything that looks brightly colored or interesting these days.  He is getting good use out of all his baby toys and exersaucer!  A few things that have spent a lot of time getting slobbered on are a Burt finger puppet and Sophie of course. He's also interested in his new giant plastic beads and all Palmer's cars.  He has rolled from his tummy to back, but not the other way yet.  Palmer plays with trucks, cars, his choo choo train, loves lots of books read to him at nap and nighttime, and can eat unlimited amounts of yogurt.

Just about to shove over onto his back

Palmer gives lots of hugs. . . this bouncy seat is losing its spring!

Consider the animal magnet
Place the animal magnet

Inspect placement

Pulling weeds with Daddy!  (Someone didn't want to take their bike helmet off ;)
put em in the bucket

Laughing and playing and drooling

The face that precedes the crying

Dancing to the music of that little barn on the fridge!
