Well my goal was to get on here once a week and update everyone on Grant's progress. As you can see that has not happened. It is amazing how I am home everyday right now, but how little time I have for things like this. Most of the day I am feeding, rocking, cleaning, and sleeping. But it has been GREAT! Yesterday Grant was six weeks old. I have always heard that this time goes by fast and that they grow so much, but I never understood until now. He slept in his crib for the first time last night. He did pretty good. We woke up at 2 and at 6. The other night he slept for 6 hours so I am trying to figure out what I did that night to help him sleep that long. Hopefully soon he will be sleeping 6 or more hours a night- I know, just a little patience.
Grant and I had a big weekend travelling to Houston to visit my family. The only person in my family to have seen Grant before that was my mom so it was nice to introduce him to everyone. One of my brothers did not get to meet him because he is working over in Africa right now. However, I was given a web-cam for Christmas which is a blessing. We have been able to talk to my brother and the grandparents through Skype. It is amazing how technology allows people all over the world to feel close to each other when talking. I have a few more weeks before I go back to work. I pray that Grant is sleeping through the night at that point to help me adjust to being a working mom. But if not, I am sure that I will survive the sleep deprivation as so many other moms do the same thing.
