Well, Nolan and I are away but Justin is at home. We miss you! We're having a good time visiting family down here. So far we've been to the fruit market, a craft store (I know Justin's glad he wasn't in on that), to visit cousins, dinner with my brother and his new wife, and swimming.
The main trouble has been in the sleep department. Nolan's always adjusted well to new surroundings, but not this time. He just screams when I put him in the pack 'n play. After a few minutes of crying, he'd go to sleep. But today at naptime he was putting up an especially impressive fight. All of a sudden we heard him screaming on the staircase. Yes, we've had a break out. I tried rocking him to sleep after that but finally I had to climb in the pack 'n play with him. And let me tell you, those really aren't built for mother and child! He did calm down and rest, leaving me free to climb out. Hopefully he'll warm up to the basement family room so that I don't have to climb in and cuddle every time he needs to sleep. I won't complain though... normally he's a great sleeper! At least he's been sleeping in at Grandma's. I woke up at 8 o'clock to him yelling "Daaaaaaaddy!" He misses Dad already! I'll share pictures of the trip when we get home in a week!

Lucky! I wish I was in St. George right now. Have fun! Tell your parents I say hi.
I miss St. George now and again. It's sad when daddy's away :( we only have 5 more weeks though- so not too many more lonely nights.
I sympathize with your sleep issues, but I'm amazed you were able to get in the pack n play! Maybe I should try that with Jack! Lately, by about 3 AM both boys end up in bed with us. We're trying to break that habit. I hope Nolan gets used to his new bed soon!
Wow, Kenzee! That's a lot of dedication to get in the playyard with Nolan! I hope your other nights there were less eventful! Traveling and sleeping in new places always throws my girls for a loop. Have a fun trip!
I hope Nolan sleeps better for you. I can't believe you got into the playyard with him...what a good mom! :) Have fun and can't wait to see you when you get back!
oh how fun - and it finally starting to cool off a bit down there too. Enjoy the swimming! and the pack 'n play!
I do like this Blog, it is really nice.
