There's No Place Like Home!

We are home!! Oh it felt great to sleep in our comfy beds last night! Ds3 slept in a comfy pack n play next to the bed until he gets familiar with his own crib. It was a good thing to, as he woke up several times during the night. Just slightly enough to want to be reassured by our voices, and then back to sleep he went.

This morning he woke up a little earlier than we would have liked, so we pulled him into bed with us. So sweet, he slept a little longer between his mamma and papa. Thank you Lord!

We videotaped him walking down the hall and into his room for the first time. He was so excited! Under his changing table are some toys and he was so cute ooohhhing and ahhhing over them. We are purposefully keeping the playroom off limits for at least today, so it isn't completely overwhelming for him. There are a LOT of things in that playroom!

One thing we quickly became aware of... we are sooo not baby proofed yet! Just watching him walk down those stairs was enough to make me nervous! We'll be heading to Babies 'R Us today to get the good cabinet locks and another stair gate, plus a few more safety door features. If there is one thing about us is we certainly try to be baby safe!

He's eating his breakfast right now with daddy. Eggs, toast and perhaps a banana. Yum! Yum! Our friends gave us a toddler seat that is kind of on the go, and that should suffice for a few days! Really, the child is just so happy to eat his food!

So, it feels good to be home! Chris took off until Monday so that we could all get adjusted together. I am so grateful he did that! The next few days will be filled with our finding a new routine in our lives. I'm glad we have a little while all together to get adjusted. :-)

I'll try to download photos and maybe a video of him checking out his new room. Try being the operative word..... :-)

Later,
Jackie
