Cranky Baby, Happy Baby

Oops...for some reason, I forgot to update the blog last week. (Could it be baby brain, lack of sleep, having a kid attached at the boob 5 hrs a day, or all of the above?) Still have NO idea where the time goes--my days are jam-packed and there's rarely ever a spare moment, but I barely have anything to show for it!

Last Saturday, Jason's bro Steven and his wife Aimee invited us over for a yummy dinner. Just thinking about Steven's cooking gets my mouth a-waterin' ;) The nephews also had a chance to 'bond' with Reid. And most excitedly, we found out Reid will have a new cousin around Valentine's Day!! It'll be so fun having one that close in age! Congrats, you guys!! Here's Hayden holding him:

And this week, we had our first official playdate with Lacy Shiligani (Bennett's wonderful Art teacher) and her daughter, Violet, who's a month older than Reid. It was so fun to compare notes and see our little miracles out of the womb! Reid wasn't a very good host, but Violet was a little angel.

And when Reid actually does nap during the daytime (not so often, I'm afraid!), he definitely prefers being on his tummy. Here's my little "inchworm," hiney sticking up and all:

He was a very cranky little guy this week for no apparent reason...wanting to eat more often, so I'm hoping it's that 6 week growth spurt everyone talks about. But the on Friday evening and Saturday evening, he was SO happy for about 10-15 minutes...made it all worth it! Here he is with Daddy and some new cool threads (thanks, Aunt Sharon and Uncle Steve!)

And the next one was even cuter!

Here's a little snippet of our happy little guy--we actually got an even better one on our video camera, but I have yet to learn how to upload those...
