Just so you all know...

Last night was Nathan's first night in his big boy bed (his crib). Since we figured out what his sleeping problem was (he hates sleeping on his back) he has been sleeping so good. He sleeps for 6-7 hours at a time. And that best part is that he sleeps for 12 hours a night (that's the best part for mom too).
Anyway, since he has been sleeping so well we decided that he should be up in his own room now. I am breaking down his pack and play and he is out of our room for good. I guess this is the beginning of his independence, a sure sign he is growing up (way to fast).

Jump-a-roo woo-hoo

Nathan got a jump-a-roo for Valentines day from his Grandma Rygmyr. He LOVES it! We put him in it for the first time yesterday, and he had a blast. We had to put a book under his feet so he could bounce. He would get going so fast it scared him. He would stop for a minute and then start right up again.



Today we put him in it and he had so much fun he jumped himself right to sleep.

David's promotion!

Hooray! Today David was promoted to the rank of Staff Sergeant. Nathan and I are so proud of him. He made E6 in less than six years, which is really good. I was able to be the one to put the new rank on him, and I gave him a good punch in the chest to make sure it stayed on!



After his promotion one of David's fellow soldiers smoked David. They dropped him and made him do push-ups and flutter kicks. While he was doing that they poured water all over him and then a whole bottle of baby powder. It was awesome!

St. Patricks Day

David had to work in Savannah this last week, so Nathan and I went down to stay with him. We had lots of fun. The weather was so nice, but not nice enough to go swimming. We even got to go to the St. Patrick's day parade, while dad flew over head in a helicopter.

Cutest kid on the planet!

Alright, so on Tuesday Nathans aunt Kristen and I took Nate to get some pictures done. Here is the link to view his pictures.

hopefully it works and you are all able to view the pictures and see for yourself just how cute Nathan is. Oh, and you will also see how much he loves his tongue!

A little Nathan update

Nate went to the doctor on Monday, and he weighed in at 14lbs 7oz. The little guy is getting so big. Here are a some pictures from the last week. He is so alert and active (mostly with his tongue and fingers). The last one is a diaper only picture so you can see his leg and arm rolls, and his chubby tummy.
