Good Weekend

ZOO BOO with friends Saturday, birthday party for Poppy in St Joe on Sunday... And a looooong night last night!!!

We all went to bed a bit late, Abby woke up in the middle of the night -- I got to go out to couch with her and she konked out on my chest. Adam woke up super early this morning, I went in and laid by him while Jenny got ready this morning. Sleep's overrated, I guess...

Adam won't get a nap today with parties and then trick-or-treating -- we'll see how it goes!

Cute Adam Story

We took Gpa Krueger out to dinner on Friday.

After we dropped him off at home Adam and I had the following conversation:
"Gpa sure misses Gma Krueger"
"She's up in heaven"
"Yep buddy, she's an angel"
"Dad, let's build a house for all the angels. Then we can have a rope down from heaven and all the angels can come down from the house and we can see them and then nobody has to be sad and everybody can be happy -- that a good idea, right dad?"

Sure is.

Abby Updates

Abby rolled over this weekend a couple times!

She's holding up her head really good now, but still not a fan of too much tummy time.

She'd probably chill in her swing all day if we'd let her

Started eating cereal and green beans recently too. Big fan of the cereal, green beans... not so much.

Abby wears 6-9 month clothes and 0-3 month shoes

She sleeps really well, typically from about 8pm until 6:30/7am.

Her hair's coming in, still has blue eyes (sorry mom), when she smiles her whole face lights up and her tongue comes out -- and the feet start kickin!

Loves her hands, loves to touch anything in front of her, will grab fingers and loves to touch faces

BIG TIME THUMB SUCKER!!!!

Lion King

I took Adam to see Lion King this weekend. He really enjoyed it and actually stayed in his seat for the entire movie, which we haven't been so lucky with in the previous attempts.

There were lots of questions - was this the same movie we've seen at home, who's his mommy, where do they live, why did he leave, why his dad can't get up, how'd he grow up so fast, and on and on -- he was pretty excited

After Simba becomes friends with Timon and Pumba, and probably 20 minutes or so after Mufasa dies, Adam looks at me and says "now they can go back and help wake his dad up"

So we had to go back through what death is and relate it to Gus (#1 and #2) and how they are no longer with us. Not sure he understands that lost loved ones aren't coming back, but he can hold on to that innocence for a while :)
