just checking


Hollis is growing up so fast... tomorrow he will be 7 months. Totally incredible.  He just fell asleep in my arms, an insisted that he be held and rocked.  This is new for him, he usually falls asleep "to the boob" by 7 pm every night, unless the little man is teething.   Tonight when I was trying to put him down, he just kept laughing and talking.  Every time I lied him down, he would roll over and try to suck on my face or head.  He was being so silly.  Then I picked him up and rocked him, he fell right asleep.  I put him down on the bed after a few minutes and he woke right up immediately!.  So I tried again, this time I swear I could see him peeking from under the eyelid, making sure that we were up and swaying, and not fake swaying from the bed.  When I finally got him to sleep this time I kept him in my arms as we got to the bed, and now he is sleeping on my lap.

It has been a rough 2+ weeks friends.  Brother has had walking pneumonia, Dad has had the flu and is now recovering from pneumonia and Hollis has been teething and sick, me just sick and tired.  Really tired.  Uncle Sean arrived from PA last week and it has been great having family in town.  Aunt Kelli should be here in one week.  Holy smokes, dreams are coming true for us.
