it's my blog and I can brag if I want to....

my baby slept a solid 10 hours last night. I feel like a new woman with a full night's sleep!


Simon is 24 days old (Ben gives me a running count every morning :) We sure love having a baby in our home. He's not smiling yet, but he's definitely more aware and alert. His hands are still constantly by his face-- so we have to keep his nails short. Each time I go to feed him, his soft hands get in the way and ends up attacking his fingers instead of latching on to eat. My kids think it's hilarious. He's making all kinds of crazy faces and cute sounds.

We just love our Slimey Simey..
especially when he sleeps like a champ!

Whoo Whoo! I'm so happy you have a good sleeper. He's adorable. I haven't even ever seen him when his eyes are open. His pictures look so much like Luke to me. I love the one with his hands by his face. Hope I can see you soon!

Oh, and he is so handsome too! CoNgRaTs on a wonderful night's sleep - keep it up for your momma, little man. I wonder if all of that arm by his face business will mean he's a thumb/finger sucker when he figures out that he has digits? I love seeing him grow!

he sucks on his thumbs already, but his other fingers aren't usually tucked away in his fist, so he ends up poking his eye out. One time he had his thumb in his mouth and his pointer finger stuck up his nostril.. His brothers thought that was awesome!

Wow, he has really long fingers!

You are amazing...10 hours. Life is wonderful on a good night's sleep. I can't believe a month has gone by. I swear I just checked your blog, and he was just barely born! He is looking even more adorable.

Where do you sign up for that kind of kid? I remember how great that first full night of sleep felt. Congrats and I hope this is the first of many great sleeps to come.

Nice! Lacy slept like that for the 1st 2 1/2 months, now she wakes up, but only once (sometimes twice) so I can't complain :)
He is such a handsome little man Janet! Also I was laughing pretty hard when I saw Zack's backside pictures and Ben's pictures of his aunts! Your kids really are awesome!!

Hope he keeps that up! There is nothing a mom can't do as long as she has a good nights sleep!
