ups & downs...

I haven't posted in awhile as we have had a busy week; full of happy firsts and sad set-backs.  I'm the kind of person, when given the choice, opts to hear the bad news first so....

Boogie is, without a doubt, on a teething rampage.  My always happy (with just a sprinkle of crabby) baby is now mostly sad with just the occasional smile. I can even hear it in his cry, which has gone from "i'm tired, but will fight fight fight falling asleep" to "mommy it hurts so much, I'm miserable!" After two solid months of sleeping 10 hours a night and a routine/schedule you could set you could set you watch by, we have regressed to chaos (not as crazy as newborn baby chaos, but for us, it's a mess). Boogie wakes up at least once, usually two-three times every night just wanting to snuggle and have the occasional small snack.  Those nighttime screams are the worst, so loud and so sad!  I'm not sure anyone on P. Eddie Street is getting any sleep right now! He was taking two, good 2-2.5 hour naps and a short evening cat nap...now....we're lucky to get a couple 30 minute naps. It breaks my heart; I wish those stinkin' teeth would just break through already!! It makes ME want to cry just thinking about it.....alright, on to the happy stuff!!

It's been an exciting week of firsts!  Boogie is now officially mobile! He has been rolling from tummy to back since he was 1 month, but he has now mastered rolling from back to tummy and, occasionally, will attempt the complete log roll (back to tummy to back, repeat!). I have yet to capture it on film so keep you eyes peeled, those pictures/videos, I hope, are soon to come.

Last Saturday, we took our first family outting to Deanna Rose Farmstead. We were on a pumpkin finding mission! Boogie encountered a lot of new animal friends along the way....he wasn't too sure about the goats...

 

Boogie got to take his first hayride!!

Finally, we reached the pumpkin patch.  He studied that pumpkin for awhile, trying to figure out exactly what it was....

 

Also, this week, Boogie got to meet Sluggerrr!!! Again, he wasn't too sure...

We also had Boogie's 3 month photo shoot with capturedinHisimage photography at Stagecoach Park....can't wait to see how they turned out!! 

Hopefully, my sweet baby will get through this painful stage soon and we can move on to a lot more happy times.  This week has definitely been full of ups & downs...
