Happy Days....

So much has happened since I last posted....Cannon is now 5 months old and eating rice cereal like a big boy. He gets one tablespoon before bed and then I nurse him until he's almost asleep. Then, Daddy, puts him in his "Baby Carowinds" to bounce until he's tired! So far, this makes him sleep at least 6 hours or more!!! WOO-HOO since I am definitely feeling the lack of sleep. I've been thankfully busy these past few months with work and have two houses closing in JUNE!

He's only nursing five times a day since he gets some cereal at night, and this is a blessing! I feel like all I do when I'm at home is play, nurse, do some work around the house or real estate stuff while Cannon naps, and then the cycle starts again! He's taking two naps a day now--one in the late morning and one mid-afternoon. We got this really cool gazebo and try to get outside at least a few times a day to do some bird watching or if we're really lucky, our tree frog friends will come hang out on the side of the house! I hope Cannon loves frogs like I did as a child! The other evening, we helped a few get closer to some insects that were beside our back door! :) Cannon has no clue at what a crazy mommy he has...:)

Oh, this is too funny....today after Church, Cannon smelled like an old lady! I just knew that whoever held him during Sunday School was...let's say, a bit older--haha! When we got home, I said, "Cannon...did a grammy hold you in the nursery today??? (then I said....I meant did a GREAT-GRAMMY hold you today?:) At any rate, as long as they give him love, we don't care what he smells like! Pastor Jody has been doing this series on "The Vow" talking about marriage and it's really convicting me...Hopefully I will be a changed woman after this....One really cool thing he keeps repeating is...."God's word tells us to make the word, love, a verb at all times!" How true is this?!?!?! We are supposed to love, love, love by our actions and in all we say and do. This is my goal!
