Sorry so long!

Hi all! Happy Wednesday! I'm sorry it's been so long since I posted. I have updated the pictures on the shutterfly site in the last week or so, but I've been remiss on the blog. I tried uploading a couple of videos last week, but it wasn't working very well.

So, what's been going on with us? I guess since I posted last, we have gone and come back from Vardaman. Max enjoyed his first week in Tater Town. He got to see all of his extended family and friends that he hadn't met yet. We had a great time hanging out with everybody! Can't wait to come back again. Since we've been back, nothing much has been happening. A lot of swinging, laying on the ottomon, looking at the mobile in his crib, that sort of thing. We did start letting Max sleep in his crib at night when we got back from Vardaman. The transition went surprisingly well. He is doing so well with the sleeping at night, and we are so grateful for that! Currently we put him down around 8:30 or 9:00, then wake him up at 11 to eat again. He usually will go right back to sleep, total awake time is less than 20 minutes most nights. Then we let Max wake us up for his next feeding...that time can range from 2:45 - 4:15. Most of the time he'll go right back to sleep after this one as well, but it usually takes more like 30-45 minutes to be sure he's good and asleep. All in all, not too bad of a night for us. We're getting much more sleep than we ever imagined we would at this point.

We're gearing up for my surgery next week. Oma is coming in for the week to help out - we can't wait to have her here!

Below are a couple of videos from this morning. Disclaimer: the first one ends with a little spitting up. The second one is after I cleaned up the spit-up. Max has discovered his tongue in the last week or so, you'll see it in the videos.

Hope you all have a great rest of the week!
