Milo is napping right now...in bed... by himself! YAY! Milo's doing very well these days. We have embraced our 'family bed' and everyone is sleeping just fine. Milo will even wake up and fall back asleep on his own. For whatever reason, he is finally relaxed and comfortable in bed. I don't know why he couldn't do that in his crib, but I don't care. I just want Milo to feel comfortable and safe so that he can rest well. And Nathan and I both love cuddling him and watching him sleep during the night. It only took 5 months...
Speaking of 5 months... he is officially 5 months old today! And I can honestly say... without hesitation... it has been the most amazing 5 months of my life. It was hard in the beginning... but Milo is just so worth it.
(This is a side note... but Milo took an hour and forty five minute nap yesterday... in his car seat. He fell asleep as soon as we left church and he stayed asleep while I ran into the grocery store and while we drove home. He still didn't wake up... so Nathan ended up eating his lunch in the car so Milo could finish his nap. :) He hasn't taken a nap that long in a long time. Now if I can get him to do THAT in bed!)
We have also decided to have Milo dedicated instead of baptized. I would be fine with either. I feel as though they serve the same purpose... but we're conflicted since we also believe in believer's baptism. So we decided to have Nathan's dad dedicate Milo. We are still working on the details, but we are going to hold the ceremony at one of our favorite places in WV.... Coopers Rock. There's no better place, in my book, to have Milo dedicated than in the middle of God's beautiful creation. Some people feel God's presence in a magnificent cathedral... but for us... its simple amidst the beauty of His creation.
Not much else to report. Milo is still so close to crawling. And his language is also really developing. He is making a funny "buh" sound... And a "mmm" sound. I think he's close to Ma Ma. *Big Smile*
