It's been awhile...

I can't believe that I haven't posted since I went back to work! It has been going well, but my second week back Cheeks decided to have a growth spurt and stopped sleeping through the night. He was going from 8 am until 4 or 5 am, and then started waking up at 11, 2, and 4 or increments close to that! UGH! It was horrible going to work with only a few hours of sleep. I literally felt like I was looking through fog. It is very hard to function on that little of sleep with no naps until the weekend.

I am finding it very hectic in the evenings after work. I get home, play with Matthew, make dinner, wash bottles, nurse him (which is taking longer and longer as he gets hungrier and hungrier!), pump, and finally get to bed.

During the last few weeks our boy has become SOO fun! He's giggling, learning how to play with toys, sitting up more, and playing in his bouncy chair. He's finally getting back in to his normal sleep stretches throughout the night and it is fantastic!

I just had spring break and we went to Florida to visit my husband's parents, and took our first plane ride to Ohio to visit my family. I'll save flying with baby for another post, but it went really well. Unfortunately our visit to Ohio was to say goodbye to a very close family friend who is passing away due to her battle with breast/brain cancer. It is super sad, but I hope she is out of pain soon.

Since the weather is becoming nicer we've been strolling through the neighborhood frequently and it feels great to be out in the sunshine and cool breeze.
