Big Boy Jammies

We have been working on Babyman sleeping through the night without getting up for his nightly bottle and for the past two nights he has been a big boy and not screamed bloody murder for that feeding. I have to believe it is due to his big boy jammies I bought him. The cutie that he is does look like a big boy in them and not my little 8 month old baby, man they grow up way too fast.

Tonight both Hensley and Steven were fast asleep at 7:30pm, Yay for Daddy Steven and me! We are celebrating by having a few beers and listening to The Rob Balducci Band...the music is Steven's choice not so much my liking...lol!

Hensley has been stuck on "Charlie and the Chocolate Factory" lately and has watched it non stop. She also insists that she is Violet in the movie...the new one that is. If you are not familure with this movie Violet is the little girl that chews gum constantly, so Hensley has taken to this. Tonight as I was moving her from my bed to hers since she had fallen asleep in mine and realized she was still chewing on a piece so I had to fish that out of her mouth before I laid her in her bed. I can already picture what a big mess that would have caused in her hair. I personally like the old one "Willie Wonka and the Chocolate Factory" because honestly the new one creeps me out.

We went to Red Lobster for dinner last night and I remembered very soon after being seated why we do not go out to eat with our children. After a trip to the car with Steven and two trips to the bathroom with Hensley and repeatedly telling Hensley to get off the floor because she had taken her shoes off and they were under the table the three of us went to the car and waited for daddy to finish eating in peace and to pay. Yes I was much more relaxed in the front seat of the car with my kids strapped in their seats in the back.

Today after naps and quiet time we spent the afternoon in the pool. It was mommy's turn to get in. I do not do backyard baby pools too well because one little piece of grass gets on me and I freak out. So, while mommy is in the pool there is no getting in and out and while daddy is in the pool there is a constant in and out running around. Even though Hensley couldn't get out and run around we still all had fun.




I will leave you with this cute birthday invite we got yesterday for a friends daughter's birthday party. This is so cute that I might have to steal it for Babyman's 1st birthday in November!
