Last few days

We were shopping for Christmas trees. At this point Jeremy and I were in the car waiting for Graig and the kid who works there to finish putting the tree on the car. Jeremy was done at that point.

Five minutes later we were moving in the car and he was out.Twinkle was very excited about the tree decorating. Our tree looks very special because we wanted to minimize the temptation for her. So the top has most of the ornaments and tinsel. The bottom still has lights on it, but no ornaments and tinsel. I was in the kitchen making dinner and Graig was finishing the tree decorating. I kept hearing "stop that" "NO" "leave that alone" "we are done with this game."

Jeremy is helping to decorate the tree.

Jeremy had a grand time in the baby carrier. The first time we tried it, we did not have success. Last night went pretty well. It was nice to "hold him" and still have a my hands free. Plus it was like "old times" (except he should be upside down).

The other day he was on his mat playing and he fell asleep. I was so excited because it is one of the few times he falls asleep without being held, rocked, or in his swing. Do you like how he has a burp cloth under him and a bib on him.

Today Jeremy and I went to my parent's house. Tomorrow we are going to Chicago so Jeremy can see Santa with my family. I just didn't think I would have the energy to drive 3 hours each way plus all day walking around on minimal sleep. So Graig gets a few nights of SLEEP. I am jealous. Sure he will miss Jeremy (he is probably happy to get a break from me), but the sleep is needed. He usually does one of Jeremy's night feedings so he is a tired guy.

So on the way up we stopped at Arby's so we could eat. When we stopped I ran inside to use the bathroom and noticed they didn't have a changing table. So, I decided to change him in the car. Luckily, he went to the bathroom not once, but twice while I was changing him.
