A bunch of stuff

Not a whole lot going on around here. God continues to provide and we continue to wait on his answer to our prayers. In the meantime, here are some more peaks into life right now.

We put together the crib last week. Although we will likely be moving (either to IN or somewhere else in Black River), we decided that if it would help us (and him) get more sleep for 5 weeks it would totally be worth it. It has worked like a charm. He's back to sleeping at least 7 hours in a stretch at night and has put himself back to sleep many times. The whole putting himself back to sleep thing has been unheard of to this point. He's also sleeping at least one 2 hour stretch during the day which is a miracle, too. Before this we were lucky to get an hour here and there. I've also taken out the nightlight (because Alex is sleeping in our room anyway) and I think that helps him when he can't look around and wake up even more. All in all, it was definitely worth the hour it took to put together. The next step will be to reintroduce Alex into his bed at night after Colin is more consistent.

Colin loves to suck on this rattle. It looks like he's licking a lollipop.

Blowing bubbles

The birds are back! I put the feeders back out yesterday and we have been bombarded with birds. Some of which we have never seen before. We found an ok website to identify them but are going to look for a better bird book at the library to assist.
