After working so hard for so long, Carson finally got his feet into his mouth. Man, life is good for him. He loves having his legs in the air so I knew it was only a matter of time before he got a hold of them and even better, got them to his mouth which is his goal with anything he can get his hands on. The first time, he grabbed his feet was while Jodi was over helping me set up for a friend's baby shower on June 20th and he was just hanging out in his bouncy chair. I was so excited for him because he had been staring at them for a while. It is so fun watching he reach different milestones like this.

It's Official
Ok, so our master bedroom is down the hall from the nursery and because of that, I wasn't really excited about moving Carson into his crib. It was just so easy having him in he bassinet right next to my bed when I had to feed him at night so I didn't want to move him. However, as you can see from the picture, it's time. The poor little guy is so big that he just doesn't fit in the bassinet anymore. When he is restless at night, he pulls his legs into the air and lets them fall down. So while doing this, they would fall onto the sides of the bassinet and sometimes he would even let his foot chill on the side for a few minutes. The night I took the picture was his last night before I moved him into the crib.
The first night he slept in the crib was a little hard for us. Chyler kept making fun of me because I went to check on him so many times but I know that he missed him too. However it was very clear to us that he loved his crib because now he sleeps with his arms spread straight out. Prior to moving him, I got him down to only feeding him once at night. He eats at 9:00pm and usually falls asleep while feeding and then he doesn't eat again until 5:30 or 6:00 am. On a good night, he stays asleep that whole time. On a not so good nights, he usually wakes up around 4:00am and I give him his binky and he goes back to sleep. I don't know how parents get their babies to sleep through the night because I have tried it all and he just won't have it. But I am happy with the progress we have made so far.

Grandma Downey
In the beginning a June my Grandma Downey passed away in Las Vegas. Although family funerals are always hard, it is always great to get together with family. All my siblings came into town for the funeral even if it was just for the day. Here are some great pictures from the day.
