Falling Behind

I have fallen behind just a bit on posting but I promise you I will update with more photos very soon!

It's a lot harder to get down into the basement for a long enough period of time to upload photos, edit photos and actually write a blog entry.  When I do get enough time to come down here, I usually write a few blog entries and set them to post at a later date so as to not leave you guys hanging. But for the past couple of days I haven't even been able to do that. I have been living off of my phone lately when it comes to reading blogs/surfing the net...which by the way, is not the easiest thing to do on a Blackberry! (I think an iPhone is in my very near future!) So forgive me if you are 'bored'...I have photos that I need to post and I'm hoping to be able to get down here tomorrow to upload them all.

As for this evening, Nick and myself are going to enjoy this wonderful weather, bring out the double stroller for the first time and take the kiddos on a walk around the subdivision. I am so excited to finally get out of the house and get some fresh air. I'm sure Hannah is excited to be able to go on walks again too! She loves them. I hope Colson loves them as much as Hannah does. And tomorrow is supposed to be even nicer (60 degrees), so hopefully we're able to get out for another walk.

Dodger, The Protector

How cute is this picture?


I was snapping some photos of Colson while he was laying in his boppy and Dodger came and laid right next to him. To protect is little brother perhaps? I thought it was very cute!

Here are a few other photos that I took, as well.

All Dressed Up

Wednesday I was able to get all dressed up (for the first time in a long time) to go with Nick to the Blue Chip Team Member Awards Dinner.

Last March, Nick won Team Member of the Month so this past Wednesday they held a dinner to celebrate/congratulate everyone who won that honor throughout the year. Then all those people who won team member of the month got put into a drawing for team member of the year. That person won a trip to Hawaii.

Nick didn't win the trip to Hawaii, but it was still a nice 'date' night out. There were appetizers and we both opted for the steak and lobster dinner. Yummy!

And just because we can never be too serious...here is a goofy photo. :oP

Sweet Sleep!

For the past 2 nights Colson has blessed us with a 7 hour stretch of sleep, followed by a 5 hour stretch of sleep.

When it happened Tuesday night, I thought that maybe it was a fluke. I mean, what 5 week old kid sleeps for 7 hours at night, followed by an additional 5 hours? Needless-to-say, I didn't get my hopes up that it would happen again. Well, I was very pleasantly surprised when last night our little man slept for a 7 hour stretch again—from 10pm-5am and then, after eating, until 10:30.

I'm trying to not get too excited...I still think this might be a fluke. I mean, it has only been for two days. Besides, I can't imagine that Colson could already technically be sleeping through the night.

But I will definitely take as many 7 hours stretches that he will give me! :o) Aw, sweet sleep!
