He's Made it 9 out of 10

Bo has made it 9 out of the last 10 nights without a pull-up at bedtime.  It was a year ago this March that we potty-trained him, and for some reason we've just kept him in pull-ups at bedtime.  It has gone very well, with only one accident so far.  The one night that he woke up wet he came to my bedside with clean underwear and new pjs and said in his most disappointed voice with a huge sigh, "Here mom."
We're all excited about this new milestone.  I wish I could say that we're spending that much less money, except now we're buying formula for Cruz.  Oh well, we're still all very excited that this has gone so well!

6 Months Old


My fat baby is 6 months old already.  Sad, yet exciting.  I keep thinking one of these days he's going to sleep all night, right?  Not so, as of yet.  He's sitting up on his own and rocking back and forth on his knees, ready to crawl.  Surely once he gets his chubby hiney moving he'll be more worn out and eventually sleep through the night.  We're keeping our fingers crossed! 
We left him and his older brother with their grandparents for the 1st time since Cruz has been born so we could go to the George Strait and Reba McEntire concert the other night.  Poor grandma and grandpa.  I think they understand now when we say we have trouble getting Cruzie to bed at night.  They were tuckered out when we got home...to say the least.  But it was so refreshing to go out and have some fun!  And actually we have the opportunity to get out again this weekend without the kiddos.  We're leaving them with my parents so we can go to the KSU game!  Exciting!  This is all leading up to a 2 week work trip that Kelly has to go on.  Being a single parent definitely is not my favorite thing to do.  But hey, I'll live.  I might be a little crazy, short fused, and tired by the end of it, but what's new?!?
This boy just weighed in at 19 pounds...
He and his brother are already best buds.  Cruz can put up a pretty good fight when Bo tries to wrestle with him.  His main weapon is his newly found pterodactyl scream.

How can I tell?
They're already telling eachother secrets.

And they don't mind letting the other lick their face.
