I can see him getting bigger...I can feel him bigger in my arms. SAD that they have to grow so fast. 4 whole weeks we have enjoyed, loved on, and nibbled this sweet baby boy. What a JOY he is. We got even LESS sleep this week {if that is even possible} He is definitely leaning toward the FUSSY side. Towards the end of the week, we started giving him "Gripe Water" and that seems to help his sensitive tummy. He's actually had two pretty good nights since we've given to him.
We also partied a little this week with our cute little monkey. My mom had her annual Halloween party, which was so fun {although Harvey and I missed a lot of it, while we nursed inside} It was a little chilly. And we even ventured out, Saturday night, to trick-or-treat! Harvey was a trooper, we stayed out much longer than I had anticipated. By the time we got home, he'd had enough! He was one ADORABLE little monkey though.
I left him with my mom a couple times this week. She watched him while I attended sacrament meeting {it was our primary program} and while I got caught up with stuff in primary. He takes a bottle like a champ. {yay!} AND we also went to a Halloween party Friday night {pics to come} and Whitney {our favorite babysitter} stayed with the girls and Harvey went up to my mom's. I miss him when I leave him, but it's nice to know he handles it so well...makes me feel a little less tied up.
Highlights of the week
We went to see Gramz and Papa on Halloween. Papa was holding and talking to Harvey and he looked right up at him and gave him the sweetest smile. Melted all of our hearts!
{can't wait for more of those sweet smiles}
