Let's play ball!
Take me golfing, Daddy!
I love this little guy and his big smile so much!
Landon's cool new aquarium.....After the poor turtle took on a horrible murder by our dog, Daniel decided it would be cool to get Landon a little Aquarium for his room. Now, Landon has 2 lullaby soother aquariums on his crib...but its not real! We had a huge 77 gallon fish tank and as bad as it may sound, we were letting it go. It had a ton of algae growing in it and it was in a spot where we would not always remember to feed the two fish living in it. So the other day Daniel and his mom went to the store and found Landon a small fish tank that we could put the two fish in and then Daniel and I went to the pet store and got Landon 3 more little fish. Landon loves his new fish tank from daddy! He will look at it and all the neon colors as I stand near the fish tank with him. I use it as a night light in his room because he is now crib trained!!! Yay! I would hate to just put him in a dark room because I know as a kid I needed a hall light to light my room, plus Landon has always slept with some sort of light on.
I feel that Daniel and I are finally getting a good handle on parenting. Landon is going longer between feedings and sleeping more. This is a much needed thing for our growing boy. When he needs to sleep, I just let him sleep and I realize that even if he does sleep during the day he will still sleep during the night. I am finally getting to sleep in a real bed and just waking up when Landon needs me in the middle of the night. What a transformation from a month ago! The nights where I would have to angle myself on the couch to have Landon comfortable and safe on me while we slept and then walking down the hall to his room to change him in the middle of the night. I am seeing that Landon eats a lot more! He can suck down about 5 to 6 oz before bed, so now I have learned that I will need to pump every day so I can feed him a big bottle at night in order for him to sleep better.
All in all, Landon has been happier lately, and I know that that is partially because Daniel's parents have been keeping him entertained while they are here on their visit, but I think its also because we are finally getting the hang of things and it is getting so much easier!
