Weekend goodness

December 3, 2012

We had all kinds of weekend goodness around here!

1. We got all of our Christmas decorations up inside and out!

2. Spencer slept in his own room for the first time and slept great!

3. AL beat GA to be the SEC Champs!  Roll Tide!

One of these things made me really happy, one of these things made Robert really happy, and one of these things made us all really happy!  Can you guess which is which?

What made me really happy?  Spencer sleeping in his own bed!  It was so nice to sleep in my bed for the first time in 6 weeks without a baby either laying on me or right beside me.  He slept ok on Friday night but Saturday night he slept GREAT!  He ate around 7:30 and then after a bath and some rocking, I put him in his bed at 10:00 and he didn’t wake up until 1:30.  I got to bed at 10:00 so that was 3.5 solid hours of sleep for me!  hooray!  I fed him and then rocked him for just a bit and he went right back to sleep in his bed until 5:00.  That meant another 3 solid hours of sleep for me!  hooray x 2!!  I fed him, rocked him and put him back in his bed asleep where he stayed for about another hour and then Robert got up and held him and let me sleep until 8:00.  hooray x 3!  I feel like a new person!  I’m so glad that Spencer did well with ZERO crying except when he wanted to eat. This kid is proving to be a pretty easy baby!

The monitor view of him all snuggled up like a burrito in his swaddle blanket in his bed…

and happy in his bed on Sunday!

What made Robert really happy?  Roll Tide of course!  It was QUITE a game against GA and I wasn’t sure Robert was going to make it through at some points but the Tide pulled it out and we had quite the celebration around here!  The celebrations continued the next day when Maxwell wore his cute new State Traditions shirt and “butt-ball” hat!

What made us all really happy?  Christmas decorations!  Everything is up inside including our tree!  We also got all the new decorations up outside on Saturday.  Unfortunately, some of my lighted garland didn’t light up when I plugged it in on Saturday so I need to replace that.  I also need to add one more wreath so will share pictures when it’s all complete.  In the meantime, here’s a sneak peak of our mail box all done up by Susan!  It’s holly jolly festive around here!!  I love Christmastime!

Hope you all had a great weekend too!

    Spencer laughing is the spitting image of Maxwell’s two month picture, it will be hard for them to say that they are not brothers.

    Roll tide,
