Amaiyah, Lil' Ron and Daddy!
Just chillin'!
Look at the rice cereal on my eye!
Boy was Little Ron mad!
Isn't he so peaceful now?
Well, hello!! Little Ron has officially turned 4 months old and is lovin' life! We wake up to smiles from our "Little Man" every morning and end every night with play time. Ron and I often comment on how "perfect" he fits into our life. I guess I should restate that. Ron and I fit "perfectly" in his little life! Since Ron and I are constantly on-the-go, he is able to keep up with us and sometimes even outdoes us! He has also calmed us down as we are in the bed around 10 on Friday and Saturday nights! We definitely don't mind it though!
Since Ron has read our friends', Katie & Jeff, blog, he went out on a mission to get Little Ron to sleep by himself. The first night, Ron let him "cry it out" but it didn't work as he ended up crying for almost 2 hours!! I wanted to go and get him but Ron wouldn't let me. There after, he was sleeping in his crib from about 8 or 9 p.m. to 2 p.m. He would wake up for a bit and then fall back asleep until 5 or 6 a.m. where I would then let him finish the morning in bed with me. I am told by Grandma Tina that this is not good b/c he needs some consistency. This is coming from the same lady who let me sleep with her and my dad for quite a while!! Anyways, last night was horrendous as he would not stop crying so he slept with me. He did really well over the weekend and I hope we can get back to some kind of schedule. Dad is on the road again as he is back and forth to Pekin the next couple of weeks. In February, his rotations will stop and he will be permanently in D-town until May!
Oma and Opa just got back from Holland on Sunday and brought all sorts of goodies for Little Ron. His family in Holland certainly have been thinking of him and must truly love him! Little Ron wanted to go over there and personally thank all of them but I told him he had to wait until next year!
Well, Little Ron has his four month shots on Wednesday and I promised him I would take the day off! When he had his shots the last time, luckily he went to Oma's house afterward so she took special care of him. We also plan on picking up the pictures on Wednesday that Little Ron took at Sears after a difficult and tiring experience and it wasn't Big or Little Ron's fault either (If anyone wants to hear the story, let me know!). I am still teaching on Tues. and Thurs. nights plus I work late on some Wednesday nights. Teaching is great and I am definitely enjoying the experience.
Hope you enjoy the pics--more to come!
