Bed Time, Bath Time & More

Over the last two weeks, the rough nights with Jackson have gotten much better. I think there's only been one night since we started "Jackson + Mommy Time" that we've had to go back into his room after we've tucked him in.  He looks forward to our time each night, looking at the clock and asking how long until it's time, and then telling me what activity(ies) we'll do during that time. We've also given him extra cuddles during his bedtime routine.  

During one recent bedtime, I was singing our normal songs (Twinkle, ABCs and Row Row Row Your Boat) and Jackson asked, "Does Daddy sing to you before you go to bed".  How adorable is that?  I just love the way his mind works, and all the things he comes up with. I told him that I would ask Corey to, and asked him what song he should sing.  He thought ABCs would be a good song for Daddy to sing to me.

And here's a pic of our sweet toddler.  Has nothing to do with this blog post, but is cute nonetheless.  And, you'd never know it from his expression, but he's enjoying some leftover cake and ice cream from Grampa's birthday, which we celebrated last weekend.

Cole continues to enjoy bath time, and Jackson still loves to help rinse him off.  Here's a short video of Cole in the bath - my favorite part is the end where (I think) it sounds like he's trying to say "Hi!".

Cole's been smiling more and more each day.  He was very happy and smiley this a.m.:

The other day, he wanted to be held while I was prepping dinner and I remembered we had a sling that I could pop him in.  He seemed to enjoy it and I love this shot of him in it.  Seeing this face makes any chore fun.
