In other news...this weekend Holden took his first road trip to Harrisburg, PA for Emily's baby shower. Baby Jack is due in the beginning of February and we're so excited for a new little cousin. Speaking of new little cousins...we want to formally congratulate Aunt Karen (Rob's sister) who is due with her first baby in early June. We are so happy for you!
As we near the 3 month mark, Holden has really started showing us his personality and we think we've got a pretty funny kid on our hands. He's discovered his voice and loves "talking" to us. He's also discovered his hands and is batting at the ball on his activity gym - he's got a great left jab. He lifted his head and chest up with his arms while on his tummy for the first time, much to my delight since he's always hated his tummy time and wasn't appearing to get anything out of it. He continues to sleep well usually going for a 6 hr stretch, up for a quick feed, down for another 3-4 hr stretch, eating again and then sleeping for another 2 hrs or so. He also figured out that moving his arms and legs in the bathtub makes for some cool splashes and a big mess.

Living on one income can be a struggle but so well worth it. Can't ever get these years back. Glad Holden is sleeping so well these days. 6 hours has to feel wonderful!!!
I'm so happy for you! I LOVE being at home with my girls and wouldn't have it any other way. I have a bunch of SAHM friends and we're rarely ever home. There are so many outlets for SAHM's these days.
Holden's getting so big. 3 months is that milestone month where things *really* start getting fun. They start learning SO many new things.
