Long time

Wow, it has been a long time since my last post. The biggest reason for this gap is that we currently do not have internet. It is suppose to be hooked up on the 20th. So, the goal is once we are working again I will be able to post more often like I did when we were in Maine.

Let's see, Aunt Mandy, and Grandma Cindy have had birthdays. We have officially moved into our apartment and are currently getting settled. But, more importantly, Dominic is getting his two big teeth on top. They are coming in at their own rate, but you can see them now. (His million dollar smile that warms even the coldest of hearts is going to change yet again.)

Our days are starting to settle into a routine again. We are back to going to the library and next week we will have baby and me time at the library. Also, I have signed up for a baby and me signing class for the last two Saturday's in September.

Dominic is finally (now that he has his own room) sleeping longer. Last night he went down at 7:30pm and slept till 2am. I fed him only 8 minutes and then he slept till 6:20am. I fed him again and he slept till 9:10 am. I actually had to check on him a few times to make sure he was alright. Currently, I am weaning him from the 2am feeding. We reduce the time by one minute each night to wean him off. Hopefully, by the end of a week to two he will no longer need that feeding.

Aside from all of this, moving in to our new apartment caused me to find things that have been in storage for a long time. I found Dominic's baby book. It is so funny to look at pictures of him when he was first born and then to see him today. He is only 8 months old, yet there are so many differences. It is truly amazing!! Tonight he is having mac and cheese (Grandma Mo made for him). He is really loving finger foods. I can't believe how quickly he went from baby food to pure finger foods. However, he is learning cause effect and this leads to a very messy child and kitchen during meals. :-)

I know there are many other changes that have taken place during the course of my absence from posting, but I am unable to think anymore...time for dinner.
