Another busy weekend

Look at my big boy! Shane now has 8 teeth in that cute little grin he gives. He is growing up so fast! We are working on weaning him off bottles now and it's going pretty good so far. He still wakes up twice a night wanting bottles, so this weekend we gave him NO BOTTLES at night and he is already down to waking up just once. A big improvement! I can't wait to get a whole night of uninterrupted sleep!!

He is also loving his new Baby Signing Time DVD. He still signs: eat, drink, more...but now he also does milk and cat (while he chases the neighbors cats outside!). He has been trying to talk A LOT lately too. We have 30 or so turkeys running around near our house and he has been trying to repeat "gobble, gobble, gobble" with a big smile on his face. It is soo cute!

We went to Dakota's 1st birthday last weekend at Helen Putnum Park. It was a beautiful day and we were so happy to celebrate with everyone. HAPPY 1st BIRTHDAY, DAKOTA!!

The Long's

Pretty little birthday girl!

Peak-A-Boo!

He loves to be up high

Our little family!

Then we had a play date with Shannon and Samuel on Sunday. We went to Rincon Valley Park and then Howarth Park and went on the train and took Shane on the carousel for the first time. We can all tell by the smile on Shane's face that he loooves the train, but I was definitely more excited about the carousel ride than he was!
