Big Changes

Jack had a big surprise when he got home from his playdate Friday morning. He had a new, big boy bed! I wasn't sure how he was going to react, but he was so excited! He wanted to get right in and lay down. He calls it his Elmo bed. (We bought a book called "Big Enough for a Bed" that features Elmo moving from his crib to his new bed. Clearly this sunk in. Check out the book on Amazon.)

We tried his afternoon nap on Friday, but that didn't quite work out. Jack was playing around and ended up falling out the bed (don't worry, it was only about 8 inches, no damage done). That evening, he wanted to sleep in the bed. It took him over an hour to fall asleep, but once he did, he slept the full night. He hasn't wanted to go back to the crib - which is great.

In order to fit the toddler bed, we had to rearrange the furniture in the room. Fortunately, everything fits and leaves space for Jack (and soon Spencer) to play. I really like the new arrangement!

Next up, moving Spence in with Jack. This one will be interesting and is a few weeks away - though Spence is out-growing his mini-crib.

Pictures of course!

Echo echo echo...

We welcomed a new pet to our home: Echo, a lovely red Betta. The name is all Spence, though he did pose a few other suggestions. Spence: I'm going to name it Bluey. Me: the fish is red. Spence: then I'll name it Reddy. Me: Let's stick with Echo. That's a cool name.

Sunday Afternoon in the Park

Could be a well known play, but in this case, it's the new Yankee Stadium. I picked up tickets Thursday afternoon for today's game against the Toronto Blue Jays. This is the first game we've been to at the new stadium. The new stadium is very nice - much more in line with other new stadiums. There is a lot more space in the walkways - more food options - and much better bathrooms! The latter being most important to me right now. Our tickets were in left field in the upper deck. All in all, decent seats - but the sun made them a bit unbearable. The game started off slow - I mean slow. The first two innings took almost 2 hours. We were roasting in the sun! Eventually, we decided to walk around to check out the rest of the stadium and get out of the sun. The game got much better after we starting moving. Eventually, we ended up on the first level watching the game from the walkway. The pregnancy bump paid off, because one of the ushers in this area let us sit down in the shade
