He's Getting So BIG!

Sorry it has been a while since my last actual post... The guys had a major stomach flu two weeks ago and it just took me a while to catch up on everything. But everyone is good now and healthy too.

Devon went to his first birthday party last weekend. (First in that he was actually old enough to play and partake in the games and festivities.) He had a blast. They had a loving dog that he mauled several times and a bouncy house. I went in with him the first time, but after that, he was in all by himself like a big boy. He even got his face painted. The only drawback of the day is that I forgot he was allergic to watermelon and gave him a bite without thinking. I took it away almost immediately, but the juice was enough to give him an upset tummy for two days. (Mean mommy, right?) Other than that, he had a great time and played very well with the other kids.

And he is taking his first nap on his big boy bed as I type this... His mattress finally came yesterday (it only took 4 freakin' weeks which is another story). He LOVES his bed. He "helped" me make the bed with the sheets and the comforter and then we played on the bed for a while. He LOVES his pillows that are shaped like little cars and he pushes them all around the bed. Plus last night, I noticed he was quiet and when I went to check on him, he was back on his bed, playing with his cars. I am hopeful to get him transitioned to sleeping on the big boy bed soon so I can finally put away the play pen that he has been sleeping in.

And of course, I am including pictures for all the nanas and papas. He is turning into such a big boy. Enjoy the photos!
