Today we went to the Moore family pumpkin patch, we had a blast!!!

Hunter loves his new chair!

Hands and Legs!

Hunter has really found his hands and legs so he was copying dad yesterday, it was adorable!

He Sleeps!

Since we had Hunter we have been very good about keeping a routine. We always do the same thing, 7pm bath, feeding and asleep in his own bed. This started when he was about a week old and he has never slept in bed with us so I was hoping it would eventually pay off. Up until about 3 weeks ago little H was waking up on average every 2 hours to eat. Eventually he started sleeping 4 hours when we first put him down and then waking up every two hours after that. The last 3 days he would sleep 4-5 hours, wake up, eat and sleep another 3-4 hours. Well last night our hard work paid off!! :)
The nightly routine was the same but he was a bit fussier than usual and it took us a little longer to put him to sleep. He kept waking up and didn't actually go to sleep until about 10pm. I remember laying in bed hoping he would sleep at least 4 hours because we had a big day today and I didn't want to be exhausted. The next thing I knew I was waking up at 5:50am and he was still asleep. Thats right, he slept 8 hours!!!! :) First I looked at Billy and thought somehow I hadn't heard him and he had gotten up. When he said he hadn't I had to go check on him because I thought for sure something was wrong. When I saw everything was ok I got his bottle ready and made my coffee and he woke up within about 10 minutes but after he ate he went back to sleep until 8:15am. It was a beautiful morning!! :)

Buddy Walk for Cole

Today we went to the Buddy walk to help support Cole. It was a great day with friends and family as well as a huge success for the Down Syndrome connection. We love you Cole!

Saturday at the compound

Here are some pictures of Saturday, Dad took little H up to the compound to visit the family.

Happy Birthday Ashley!

Today we celebrated Ashley's birthday at the house with the whole family. It was a ton of fun as always. I just love the Romero Family, they are my second family and we always have a blast together. I have serious baby brain however because I reminded myself everyday this week about our plans to celebrate on Thursday. If you know Ashley; birthdays are a very big deal to her and I try my hardest to make them very special for her. This year I woke up to early so I waited until I knew she was awake to call her and sing her happy birthday as I do every year, sadly when she answered the phone I blanked out and said, "I can't remember why I was calling". It was so pathetic!! She is wonderful though and forgave me and laughed about it. Here are some pictures from the big day. Happy Birthday Ashley, love you!
