seven months already! can't believe my mat leave is already half over. it'll be tough to leave this lil guy when i have to go back to work. the above photo was taken this past weekend by ken when he took nathan to the park on his own while i had to fulfill some bridal party duties. i weighed nate this morning and he is now 17.8 lbs! definitely giving us a good arm workout. his sleeping has been driving us crazy though. it's hard to get him to take a nap longer than 30 minutes and hard to put him to bed. he wakes up about 4 times a night, so that's making for two very tired parents. we're hoping this is just a phase and it'll pass...SOON. we're currently reading "the no-cry sleep solution" by elizabeth pantley in hopes that we can rectify this situation. *fingers crossed* any parents with tips out there? things that worked for you? we tried the "cry-it-out method" for a couple of nights, but didn't have the heart to continue.

Wait. You mean Nathan's cranky and hard to get to sleep even on nights I don't come over to visit? Ken's an ass.
BTW, I like the song choice for the previous video -- especially the lyrics. If it wasn't deliberate, your subconscious did a nice job of expressing your desire for a 'Good Night'. Of sleep, perhaps. ;)
I think Nate will enjoy the island breeze ..
Come! :)
