Well I hate to even post it because I don't want to jinx it but Tristan has slept all night in his crib the last 3 nights!! The first night he did it was after he got his shots so I thought it was a fluke but he has slept the next two nights too. I am so excited since i am back at work and sleep is a must for me. 7 hours feels like the longest sleep ever after going two months with 2-4 hours increments. I am trying to get better about not checking on him all the time. The second night that he slept I actually set my phone alarm for 3am to go check on him! That was a big mistake because I could not go back to sleep. Needless to say I will not be doing that anymore! We did buy a video monitor so atleast if I wake up I can look over at my nightstand and see if he is still ok. I know... I am spoiled but that monitor has been priceless! After sleeping all night, he is all smiles in the morning. I caught a few pictures below. Again, they are from my iphone so not the best quality but they work. I will try to catch some with my SLR soon.


Since a few people expecting babies have asked me.. here are the things we could not live without the first two months:
1. Diaper Genie this thing is a god send!
2. Boppy - great for breastfeeding, baby sitting up, and tummy time
3. Bouncy Seat - the only chair Tristan would take naps in!
4. Video Monitor - ok I could have lived without this but i wouldn't want to!
5. Bottle warmer - Shannon loves this thing for when he watches Tristan, it is so easy to use and warms the bottle in the same time it takes for him to change his diaper and come back.
6. And finally... ambiant noise machine - this puts babies to sleep in a flash
