Heaven On Earth

We all have our own ideas on what a little bit of "heaven on earth" means. To some of us, it means stuff like world peace or maybe no more poverty. It could also mean a big slice of chocolate cake during a certain time of the month. (With chocolate icing of course) To me, however, right in this very moment, my little slice of heaven on earth is my baby sleeping through the night the past two nights. He went down at 9:30 and woke up at 7:30! Around 4am I ran into his room to make sure he was ok...and when I discovered he was, I sighed with relief and joyfully crawled back into bed. It's amazing. I wonder though if this will continue to happen, or if it was just luck that he did it 2 nights in a row. Do babies typically continue to sleep through the night once they start, or what? Give me your opinions, please, on what your children have done. I mean I know he won't always have perfect nights, no one does. Whoo Hoo! I am so excited! I actually slept! Oh boy.

More Hunting

TK went hunting with his dad cause Jerry got to go shoot a big bull elk. While there TK shot a deer. They had a good time. And TK's friends came too. It was Josh, Matt, Josh's brother, and TK and Jerry, and TK's brother Brett. Josh brought his horses with them and so they packed the big elk onto the horses and rode the horse's back to camp. This is awesome cause usually they would just have to do it all on foot which to me is crazy, but that's usually the only way. So the whole horse thing is pretty cool. And TK was happy he got to shoot a buck.

Beau Facts

Beau is doing great holding his head up. He is starting to talk alot. He doesn't really cry that much, just when he needs something. He does have this fake cry that he does when he wants something. And it works every time. I love his bumbo seat. Thanks Aunt Tammy! He looks so stinkin cute sitting in it. He is obsessed with the tv. It's really funny but will eventually be a problem i'm sure. He just loves to look at it. He sat and watched a whole movie with me and Tk once. The only thing is sometimes when I hold him he will turn his head all the way around to find it. Again funny but when he gets older we will have to find something else for him to do.
I've been trying to get him to hold onto things, like toy rattles and stuff. He will for a little bit but not with much coordination. It has to be a soft toy or he will hurt himself.
He's growing like a weed. The last time we went to the doc he weighed in at a whoppin 14 lbs and 2 oz. That was when he was 2 months exactly. Me being a first time mom means I don't know what is normal or not. And I guess that is big for a little 2 month old. When we are out and people ask how old he is, they all can't believe he is only a little more than 2 months. I guess he looks older. They say like 3 or 4 months old!
It's crazy, fun, tiring, hard, scary, exciting, amazing...the best experience of my life so far and the best thing that has ever been given to me.
