"No, Einstein"

Tonight I came home from my Weight Watchers meeting and we had dinner. After that I gave Aaron a bath and as he was getting out I asked him if he wanted to watch Noah-which refers to Baby Noah of Baby Einstien. He said, "No Einstein". I am so sure! Gosh-he is growing up so fast!

We started an official bed time last week in order to get him on a schedule and provide Alex and I with a smidgen of down time before bed. Let me tell you he is doing amazing. We decided on 9pm, which may be late for his age, but lets face it-we work all day. If it was up to use he would be awake until we went to bed! Every night he has been asleep no later than 9:10. We brush teeth at 8:50 and then I put on his music, hold him for 2 songs, put him down and he is out! Amazing little guy! Since we started it has been easier for him to get up in the morning, which was our main concern.

This week Denise went to visit her Mom with the boys so we are putting forth a group effort for the week. Tomorrow my Dad is coming up and staying until Wednesday night, Thursday Beth and Kelsey are keeping him and Friday Grandma is taking the day off. Raising a baby is so much easier when you have family that is involved. We are truly blessed in that regard!

isnt it amazing when they form opinions? I always marvel at the fact that they start reasoning with you, its like they woke up one morning and grew an attitude, but its fascinating~!
