All Packed Up

EDITED @ BOTTOM OF POST

I'm a little exhausted from the packers being here for two days....not from them being here, but the preparation before they show up. Those are the guys in the picture above. One of them, I won't point out which one, sang and danced with Silas' exercauser music. :) It went well and we're sitting on those folding chairs that you take to soccer games....government furniture comes tomorrow. I'm not complaining though; the cup holders in the arm rests are very convenient.

We had a rough night last night...Silas didn't nap much during the day because of all of the action at the house and we ran lots of errands in the morning. Seemed like every time he fell asleep in the car it was time to get out... So, he was up about every 2 hours last night...aye! The three of us (around 4 am) on an air mattress does not make for good rest. Today we bought him a little co-sleeper that he's sleeping in right now. Anything must be more comfy than that Pack 'n Play....he's used to lots of padding and blankets at the TH and that 1/2 inch of a "mattress" just doesn't cut it. I'll let you know...

I don't have much strength for words (I'm so dramatic) so I'll inundate you with pictures. I need to take Silas by the clinic to have him weighed...his thighs have doubled in size this week...you'll see.... We celebrated our friend Kara's birthday tonight..there is a picture of her below with Silas and then Silas with our friend Frank...he was practicing for his impending fatherhood.

I keep finding more words...Silas has eaten sweet potatoes twice this week and is not really a fan. I'm going to keep it up though...he "eats" them while his face tells me he's really not enjoying them but presses on for Mommy. He is a good sport!

One month ago today, we met Silas for the first time. Finally held him in our arms. Where did the month go?! What was life like without Silas? I almost can't remember.

Here are the pictures I promised a couple of paragraphs ago:

We will leave here on 30 June...headed to North Carolina. Before arriving @ Fort Bragg, we'll head to Texas to spend time with our family that we miss dearly. On the way back across the country, we'll stop in Georgia for a family reunion on Marshall's side. Life at Bragg will begin at the end of July...Casa de Coen open for business as soon as we have one. ;)

Sleep Report: Silas went to sleep at 2100, bottle at 2330 (Mommy went to bed after this one), 0330, 0700 and up for the day at 0815. We'll take it...thank you, Lord for the co-sleeper and the sleep!
