The days are just packed

Steven has had a very busy couple of weekends. Two weekends ago he attended his first of many to come dance recitals for his big cousin Emma Claire. Then he celebrated Mother's Day by starting off the day with a gift for Mommy - 2 poopy diapers! This past weekend Steven visited the skating rink for the very first time for cousin Emma Claire's 6th birthday party. He was quite attracted to all the flashing lights! Then on Sunday, Steven's cousin Addison graduated from the Bell Center in Birmingham. Addison was so cute - she even clapped for herself during the graduation! Steven had the opportunity to visit with his Uncle Joe, "Tanny," and cousin Anna Marie this past weekend as well. By Sunday night, Steven was wiped out! We did a lot of running around. He was so tired he actually slept in his bassinet for the very first time all night. He has never been too fond of his crib or bassinet since birth. He prefers sleeping in his carrier. Whatever works! He is doing very well at night and will sleep anywhere from 6-8 hours at night without waking to eat. This has been especially nice since Mommy has gone back to work and needs some extra rest. Steven is growing so fast. He can now roll from his back onto his side. He tries to "talk" making all kinds of sounds. He has the biggest, cutest smile! He even came close to laughing at me tonight. He gets scared very easily by startling noises. When he does, you better look out. First he pokes his bottom lip way out, then the wailing begins. It is definitely a scared cry, much different from the hungry cry. It will absolutely break your heart. We love him so much and enjoy each moment with him.
