Lately...and some words to catch up

Lately I feel like I am always rushing. I have to rush to get to work on time...rush to get finished at work to get my baby...and rush to get home to spend time with him before he goes to bed. Here is my attempt to slow down and give some details about our daily life lately.

BJ went back to work last week and I spent the week being on my own. I was so exhausted...I don't know how single moms do it. Kudos to them. Grayson got settled at his school. He is attending the daycare on site at my work(otherwise known as transition care) until he starts to stay with his Aunt Vicky in August. I am feeling very blessed that both BJ and I have access to this wonderful daycare. It's sole purpose is transition care and back up care for the employees and their teachers are amazing and so caring. They certainly have made it easier to work and not have to worry about your little one.

Grayson, thank the Lord above!, is still sleeping really well. He goes to bed around 7:30 and gets up between 5 and 6. He eats between 20 to 25 ounces a day and we are real excited to get started with some solid food soon. He still is only on breast milk and he weighs 14 pounds. His 4 month check up is coming up in early August so I am interested to see his stats. Speaking of food...

I recently tried my hand at making some baby food. I had gotten some home grown squash from GG so I cooked it up and I have to say that making baby food is so easy. I am excited to make more soon.
Here is a picture of my latest creation.


Here are a few more pictures to share...
Grayson's social smile is really starting to come out. He cracks me up because when he is in the car he talks to himself and smiles a lot. I have no idea what is entertaining him...

 Relaxing with Dad. They have really missed each other since BJ went back to work.

  1. Very cute! We make our own baby food too and it is SO easy. Plus, it tastes way better than food in the jar.
