Monday's Letter to my Little Bear-3rd Edition

Happy Birthday, Little Bear! Today is Monday, May 19, 2008, and you were four months old yesterday!! My goodness, those four months have gone fast...you've grown & changed so much already!

We had a busy weekend. On Friday we drove to Manhattan with Gigi & Papa for Uncle Bobby's graduation. Daddy couldn't go because he was on-call for work. We went to the BFA show at the Union on Friday night, then graduation Saturday morning.

This is what you did at the graduation ceremony!

You with Mommy & Uncle Bobby

It was a quick trip, but you were worn out!! Poor little thing had your routine all messed up! We got home around 3:30 on Saturday afternoon and you didn't want to sleep or eat. It wasn't like you at all, and Mommy was so worried. Papa said you probably had "jet lag" from the busy trip! You were back on track by Saturday night. You ate and Mommy put you to bed...I only had to put you down once, and you were out!

On Sunday, we spent the day home with Daddy. You took LOTS of naps ( I think you were still recovering from the trip), so Mommy & Daddy worked outside while you were asleep. We cleaned out the carport and did yard work. We moved our big swing to the front yard, so we can sit out there in the evenings with you. We tried it out last night and you loved to swing! It's the perfect shady spot! Daddy grilled burgers for supper and we ate out on the back porch. It was a beautiful Sunday evening! We look forward to spending lots of time with you outside.

Daddy's was pretty proud of his burgers with grilled pineapple!

A little blurry....but you loved to swing!!

Writing these letters to you every Monday makes me realize how FAST the weeks go by, and how much I need to cherish every moment. Have a good week, Little Bear! I love you!
