Victory!!

Last night was a big milestone for us. Kendall slept for about 5 hours in his pack-n-play!! We've been having a really hard time getting him to sleep in it during the night. During the day he has no problem sleeping in it. But when it comes to night time he just won't do it. But last night, it finally happened. It was great!! I know he has to get better sleep when he's in his own bed than sleeping with us...and I know that we sure do get better sleep that way as well!! So, I'm anxious to see how tonight goes. Hopefully last night wasn't just a fluke!!

Another milestone...Kendall's umbilical cord came off Wednesday afternoon! And it totally freaked me out!! Danielle was over here visiting and she was changing Kendall's diaper. I was in another room and he was crying so I went in to check on them. Danielle was about to close up his new diaper and I was like..."wait a minute!!" His umbilical cord was still there...but it was stuck to his skin about an inch or two above his belly button!! Danielle hadn't even noticed! I wasn't sure what to do though. They tell you how to take care of it before it falls off, but no one ever tells you what to do when it does fall off. So I immediately got on the phone with Amy to see what I was supposed to do. Turns out...you don't really do anything once it falls off. I guess that's why I didn't know what to do.

Tomorrow is the 4th of July celebration at the park. Our church is supposed to have a booth there doing face painting to raise money for the kids playground. I have a feeling it's going to rain a lot tomorrow though so I'm not sure how well our booth is actually going to do. There may not be a big crowd down at the park tomorrow. We decided because of all the sirens and everything that we weren't going to take Kendall to the parade. So TJ and I are going to go to the park during the parade and help get everything set up for the booth. Then, depending on the weather, we'll decide how long we'll stay at the park.

Here are some of the most adorable pictures I have ever seen of this little boy!! How can you not want to just eat him up?!?
