De-babying the House

The big boy bed has been a real success the last two nights. Sean slept from 9:00-6:30 this morning and only woke up once throughout the night. When he woke up, I rubbed his back, covered him up & handed him his blanket. He rolled over and went right back to sleep. I love nights like that.

Last night, Grandma Sue, Grandpa Larry, Grandpa Jim, Uncle Scott & Paige came over. As Sean was running back & forth between his room & the living room, Jason noticed that the gate between the kitchen & living room was definitely becoming dangerous. A couple weeks ago, my dad mentioned that Sean was almost eye level with the locking bolt. But last night, I think he was eye level. He's growing too fast! Anyway, Sean helped Dadda take down the gate. Jason had his screw driver & Sean had his drill. He loves to help us do everything, except he likes to be the one in charge.

This morning we celebrated Aunt Susie's birthday, because we won't see her tomorrow. Sean bought her a ball & some fruit snacks. He's considerate like that. And he helped her open all of her presents from Grandma. Such a nice boy. Every present she went to open, he said "ball". Susie said, "Grandma, you should've gotten me all balls, cause that's what I really wanted". :)Happy Birthday Aunt Susie!
