Two Peas in a Pod...

So, last week we moved Bugga into Buddha's room for a trial run. What was a trial run, is now permanent! Woo hoo! It never ceases to amaze me that though I might think I know my children, they can still surprise me sometimes. :) Bugga could cry all night and Buddha won't wake up! And here I thought he was a light sleeper. Phah! Boy was I wrong. Bugga also fell asleep for nap time while Buddha was in his crib having "quiet time," which wasn't all that quiet with his Little Touch Leap Pad in there with him. YaY! Good sleepers means good sleep for Mommy!

We gave Bugga his first solid food on Wednesday last week. He had peas. :) Those were Buddha's favorite and we figured you can't go wrong starting a kid on vegetables. I was hoping that getting more calories would help him sleep more solidly during the night. I don't think he was ready yet, though, and we haven't given him solid food again since. I think we'll wait another month and try again. He is only 5 months, so it was a bit early anyway.

We said goodbye to Uncle D on Monday night. He's on his way back to Iraq now. He left this morning, but he has three days of traveling before he'll arrive in Baghdad again. We had a great time with him. He's awesome with the kids and always fun to talk to and laugh with. Buddha will really miss his "Unca D."
