Putting things away already
I've been slowly cleaning up post vacation while still also trying to get yard work done as much as charley will let me. But, part of clean up was my mess of a room, and I had to make room for Charley's size 3-6 mo clothes which meant putting away for a long time the newborn and the size 0-3 month clothes. Those newborn outfits seem sooo tiny now, but when he was born they seemed so big!! It's crazy what happens in such a short time. I can't remember when I wieghed him last-it was either a day or two ago but no more than a week and he litterally gained a pound, and I feel like it all came on last night.

What a whirlwind
So, I am back home, and it never felt so good.
It was a great 3 week long vacation, and we got to see lots of family. I just never realized how much I love my bed and my piles of pillows.
My sweet baby is 3 months old and things are starting to normalize. Its both exciting and sad. He can put himself to sleep. I Haven't taken advantage of this in full force yet, becuase we've been travelling, but my baby is definately capable of laying down on his own and taking a nap. His feedings are starting to spread out also. Which again is a relief and a bit sad. It means he's exiting that blessed sweet and difficult but wonderful newborn stage.
He has flown on an airplane like a superstar.
Been on his first big rd trip (12 hr drive from Denver to Pryor OK became a 16 hr rd trip!)
He has met his great Grama Elmer, Great Grama and Grampa Sullivan-aka Grammi and Bumpi; his Great Grama and grampa Graves, aka Grama Joann and Grampa James.
He's met his Cousins Clara, Lucy, Loryn, Izac, Kayla, Rylee, Payton, Sebastian-and extended cousins in Colorado/Oklahoma. He's met his aunts Amanda, Robin, Traci, Teri, Asia, Trinity, and his uncle Keith.
He now loves to grab everything, play on his tummy, giggle at mommy and daddy.
He's been swimming for the first time as well.
Plans for the next 3 months are to figure out his nap and bedtime routines, transition him to sleeping in his own bed at night next to mommy and daddy.
We're in 3-6 mo clothes, and size 2 diapers, somewhere around 12 lbs. Gonna play all summer long with Aunt Elyse and Uncle Liam.
Goals for our little family is to pay off a few debts, get more fit and reduce our spending with some team efforts on budgeting. Read our scriptures every night (started this on vacation) say our family prayers, read conference talks by next conference.
