trevor :: 30th week

9/2/14

 raccoon ears, alaska socks from grandma diane :)

trevor: sits up on his own every day especially when looking at toys, still falls over eventually but getting stronger, very fussy the end of this week (teething, moving, separation anxiety?)

-----------------------
wednesday was moving day and also an extra sad day for us as while we were packing up in bloomer, our beloved dog, tator tot, was hit by a car and killed. :( we were already sad to leave that house, bloomer and the cats, and then we also had to leave our tator there. we love that dog so, so much!

the greeder bunch came down with their truck and trailer to help us, and we got it all in one load! the new place is larger than i originally thought so that's good. and although we're really heart broken over the loss of tator, we're slowly unpacking and making it home. a larger new chapter in our lives than we thought and it's definitely going to take some getting used to.

we live right next to our friends matt & jodi and their 2 kids and 2 dogs now (we share a yard with them), so wednesday night we went to their place for a beer and to watch some tv. it was good to have some distractions and let trevor get tired out from watching their kiddos play.

thursday and friday were really tough days for us but we tried to distract ourselves by unpacking, running errands, and getting some stuff done. trevor had been off schedule for multiple days so he was pretty fussy and not such a good sleeper, but we'll get back on routine and try some sleep training again if necessary.

friday al had to go back to work and had to work 12 hour shifts then and saturday (labor day weekend). saturday mom came down and we went and cleaned the bloomer house. it only took us a couple hours so that was good. it was really hard to say goodbye to that house and to tator and the cats!! mom helped me organize the new place, get the garage settled so we could get the explorer in it, and unpack a bunch more stuff. it was great to have her here but sad to see her go on sunday as there was no softball this week and she left for her cruise the next weekend. which meant we wouldn't see her again for 15 days. :(

sunday i made trevor some more baby food since he was just about out and out of his favorite, sweet potatoes. monday we actually got more than an hour awake with al! we spent some time outside since trevor was pretty fussy (he loves being outside and isn't fussy when out there). matt & jodi came to chat and jodi mowed our lawn with theirs! then later when al was getting ready for work and trevor was still fussy, we went for a walk with matt and the kids. after that trevor was less fussy. tuesday was al's friday (thank goodness! long week) and we were both hurting, physically and mentally/emotionally so we didn't do a whole lot.

not many pictures this week due to so much going on.

fussy baby wants to be held all the time,

so we tried our ring sling like this for the first time and loved it!

 he's been sleeping like this a lot lately:

side, leg out, hand grabbing leg

 new socks perfect for winter!

 thighs :)
