..Three Peas In a Pod..: Happy baby...

I never realized I could love something so little, so much! This little guy makes me love him more and more every day. His little smile, and old man chuckle is contagious, and I can't get enough of it. I think I am mildly obsessed :) We had a good weekend, and great start to the week. We spent the weekend at Penn State's Arts Fest, not so much looking at the art, but more so eating the greasy, delicious festival food. Luke goes for the lemonade cups, however..this year the vendors cheaped out and bought flimsy lemonade cups. Luke feels that these lemonade cups will be eternal and are worth the 5.00. Not so much this year!

This week we are nap training. I am trying to get Jack on a nap schedule because he becomes overtired after an hour or so. He is so alert and needs to know exactly what is going on at every second that he is awake (can't say he is my son), that it exhausts him. Day 2 is going better than day 1. I am learning a lot about baby sleep. He jolts awake at 30 minutes, on the dot, every nap. Apparently a babys sleep cycle is 30 minutes and often times little babies can't transition into the second sleep cycle without jolting, which awakens them. SO, I have been trying some methods to help him transition into the second sleep cycle and today it worked like a charm. 2 2hour naps! yeehaw!

Here are the pictures of the little man- cute as ever. He goes for his 8 week shots on Friday. Can't wait to see how much he weighs. Luke thinks his legs look like the turkey legs they were selling at Arts Fest. ha!

This is me after my first 3.5 mile run..

I wore my sweatsuit...and had a nice nap :)

These crazy people did all the work... (great picture- right?) (Just proving I survived the run, and Luke survived the complaining)

Me with my new best friend. Her name is "Wizabef" - (Elizabeth)

Luke watches this show called "Swamp People", a show where people hunt alligators. The swamp people barely speak English..they seriously need captions on the show to understand what the people are saying. Anywho, the one alligator ladys name is Elizabeth, but pronounced "Wizabef" - in swamper slang. So, we named Jackson's new alligator, Wizzy.
