Happy 29th Birthday Josh!

Josh had such a great day. Well, he manually labored all day with Mat, our neighbor-friend, so that had to be exhilarating, then the four of us went to our favorite steakhouse-Jaks for dinner and drinks. We were so lucky to have a very well equipped designated driver for the evening-thanks Katie, and some very excited babysitters-thanks Mom, Bria and Aunt Renee who all helped make Saturday night as memorable as it was. We then bounced over to our friends Crystal and Rupp who were throwing a Christmas party where Josh partied the rest of the night away with friends. Lets just say Josh wasn't moving to fast the next morning, but still had a very Happy Birthday!

Josh blowing out his 29 candles. Notice on the cake is a nice shot of Josh at a very ripe age. He loved that cake!

Us with our Great Friends Mat & Katie. They make every occasion that much better!

Happy Days and Nights!

Recently we have been trying to decide if we wanted to try and get Maddie to sleep without her swaddle. She sleeps so great once bundled, but then fights it all night long in her sleep to get her little fat fingers to her mouth. We tried a little bit this weekend, but had a very confused and fussy darling on our hands. We then just decided that we have a really good sleeper...why change a good thing. Needless to say a time will come when this little sweetie gets stronger than we can bundle her, and then and only then will it will be WAR!!!
