Going Everywhere....and Not Sleeping!

Well Daddy was right. Jack crawled on Friday. He was crawling when I got home and continued to crawl all over the place all weekend. As soon as he figured out how to coordinate his movements and crawl, he has been nonstop! The problem is....even during the night he is so excited, he wakes up gets on his hands and knees and crawls around in our bed. This has been going on several times each night usually around 2:00 am and it can go on for hours. Saturday night I had to put him into his crib as I was so tired and he just would not settle down! (I felt horrible and kind of sick to my stomach about doing this as I missed him by my side at night...and I felt a little like I was giving up on him...and leaving him alone at night in that dark room.)


We took him to the Circle S Pumpkin Farm on Sunday. Mommy, Daddy Jack & Nana had so much fun! We took a hay ride and picked out three pretty pumpkins (which were stolen later when we left them near the exit to go get the car), Nana & Daddy had cider and doughnuts and shared with Jack & he just LOVED it. We saw ducks, and goats, and took tons of pictures. It was a great day and a fun way to celebrate Jack's first Autumn with us!

I cannot believe that one year ago he wasn't even alive and that now I have the most precious thing I could have ever imagined. How did we ever live without him? I can't believe how lucky we are.
