Do we look rested?

Well we always heard that it is very possible for a baby to sleep 12 hours straight by the time they are 12 weeks old but we never actually thought we would be so fortunate with our kids. Jack has proved us wrong. Jack is now 10 wks old and he has gone from sleeping 10pm - 7am to now 7pm - 7am ....ahh.... 12 hours!!! Thank you Kingdom Parenting and thank you Julie for helping me drop that 10pm feeding! Erik and I feel like new people although Jack was never one to make his parents totally sleep deprived.

We took the picture at a kids Christmas party at Erik's office and I was so excited because Santa was coming to give a present to each of the kids. What did Jack do? Of course, he fell asleep and cared nothing of Santa and the rest of the festivities. Maybe next year. We're thinking that maybe by Easter he'll get the hang of this whole holiday thing and actually get excited for Easter eggs, the Easter bunny, and candy he can't eat. Maybe we'll put rice cereal in his Easter eggs this year haha. I suppose I need to just enjoy this time because right now he's "unattached" around the holidays...I can see this conversation coming up at a Valentine's Day down the road..."Mom can you buy flowers, chocolates, and Hannah Montana sparkle eye shadow for Katelyn, Sydney, Mackenzie, Emma, Kaelyn, Shae...and oh yea....some for you, too, mom"....let's hope that's a long time away:)

Quick update on Jack:

10 weeks old, a little over 12 lbs, somewhere around 23 inches long, size 2 diapers, eating between 4-6 ozs per feeding, making lots of noises and having "conversations" with us, still in awe of sportscenter and watching the cowboys with dad, and last but certainly not least- sleeping 11-12 hours at night!
