Amber and Dylan leave for home on Monday. We have had a great visit with them. Adam, Gabby and James are coming over tomorrow for a Prime Rib dinner in the afternoon. They will head home before James needs his bath and bedtime. He goes down around 6:30 pm and sleeps for 12 hours!
We went to the show yesterday with Amber and Dylan, then we stopped for some Five Guys. I definitely need to do a movie post. I think Mark and I have seen about 5 movies over the last several months.
I don't know why my days seem to be so busy that I don't find time to post more often. The weeks just seem to fly by and I can honestly tell you that I have no desire for Christmas to be on the way. I am actually thinking of not decorating this year. Yes I said that!!!
Here is a fact I need to share. It's crazy! Mark put the crib together for James and we also have our wooden high chair ready. These were both Adam and Amber's and yes they are both safe.
The funny/sad thing is that we have to put the crib in the laundry room or our walk in closet because James only sleeps in complete darkness with a sound machine extremely loud.
Those are the only rooms where there is complete darkness. I have told them that they are going to pay for this someday because he will not sleep anywhere else except total darkness. Never sleeps in the car either!

Hello! Enjoy your time with the family.
You have a great weekend as well.
For you too:**
I am glad everyone had a nice time. That you have the items for him - but you are so right - they are going to be soooooooooooooooo sorry about his sleeping - well maybe not - but probably!
Wow, I can't believe James never sleeps in the car! I wonder if he will adjust to some light for sleeping as he gets more mobile and gets out of the crib. Sounds like you have a lovely weekend ahead enjoying the last few days of Amber/Dylan's visit. Times change and sometimes decorating for the holidays is okay to bypass (done so for the past few years myself LOL). You'll have to be extra careful this year since James will be mobile and will be into everything once Christmas time rolls around.
Happy weekend!
betty
That could get to be a real pain with only sleeping in total darkness. Me, I can sleep anywhere...lol
I dunno … James sounds to me like the Perfect Baby!
I'm a bit in shock of your not decorating. But you know, one seasonal 'recess' isn't the end of the world; it's what's in your hearts that count!
12 hours is amazing. but then I read the dark and sound machine. I use a small fan for my sound machine, it sits on the floor and the hum hides the snoring dog and the snoring hubby... I agree this habit might not be a good one.. if our remember last year ws the first year of my life I did not put up a tree. I just sat that silly Charlie brown tree with one ornament out. your decoranting takes days and even weeks so I can understand. can we say downsize? maybe only ONE tree?
I agree - training him to sleep only in pitch black with a sound machine will come back to bite them!
I'm going to decorate but am cutting waaaaay back this year.
Hi Debby,
Keep us posted on how James does with his sleeping.
Have a great new week,
Carla
Good times with the family. Hope the little fellow does ok with his hearing later on extremely loud sounds would have me a little worried.
Well at least he don't need a night light!! That is wild. I have not seen a movie in a yr or so. There are a couple coming that I think I would like to see. One about Judy Garland, and it might be out already. Anyway, sounds like you have been busy. Keep it up...as for Christmas, not decorating this yr. Just don't have it in me right now.
