NINE HOURS

I just wanted to share that Carson and I both got NINE HOURS of uninterrupted sleep last night. Yep, he didn't wake up once until his 6:00am feeding. It was so amazing. I don't even remember the last night that I slept that well because I wasn't even sleeping through the night at the end of my pregnancy. Carson was sick last week so he was hardly sleeping at all during the night and of course moms, never catch up on their sleep so by yesterday, I was just miserable. So as soon as I put him down, I passed out. I am really hoping that this keeps up because for anyone who knows me well, knows that I love my sleep.
Also, I finally got a picture of Carson sleeping in his crib with his arms spread out like I talked about in the last sleeping post so I decided to show it now. He loves his crib, especially his mobile which is what the bottom two pictures are of.

Proud Wife

Since I basically only write about Carson, I wanted to give a little update on Chyler. His business Grease Away is growing but as many small business owners know, it takes a little while after your business grows that you actually get to see the profits. Because I quit my job to stay at home with Carson, Chyler got another job as a maintenance man for a property management company that manages stores, not to mention the side job he has as a plumber and handyman for family and friends. It works out really well because he doesn't have a set schedule with either business, he just works the jobs as they come in. His first job was at the Wet Seal and he called me wondering if I knew what it was. He asked, "is it some kind of Discovery or animal store?" I laughed pretty hard when I told him it was a girls clothing store. But the reason I am writing is because he has only been working for the property management company for about three weeks and they called this week to say they just had a managers meeting with all the managers and the owner of the company and Chyler came up. Everyone was so impressed with him and the great work that he has been doing that they have moved him up to the number one man and they are going to be doubling the jobs they give to him. I am so proud of him and so grateful that he is such a hard worker.

Time to get up

A few weeks ago, I was burping Carson in bed after feeding him. Chyler was still sleeping and apparently that was not okay with Carson because he was just staring at him. Before long, he stating making "uh" noises at Chyler. This proceeded every few seconds until Chyler woke up to figure out what was going on. I was trying so hard not to laugh before Chyler woke up but it was so cute, even Chyler thought so after he woke up.
