Some more cute baby stuff

Easton's changing everyday and he's getting to be soooo cute! Last week I got out a pad and paper and wrote down what week he started doing things, like smiling, rubbing his eyes and sleeping through the night so I don't forget. People told me to do that a while ago and I finally got around to it! Anyway, I know I said the next blog was going to be about the house, but I haven't taken pics yet. Maybe tomorrow since we're looking forward to a lazy long weekend! In the above video, Easton's trying to tell me that he's done playing without going into a crying tantrum like he has in the past. He just started doing that last week an I love it, he's so sweet!

Lots going on

It's been a while since we've updated, but we've been pretty busy! First, we were able to get a new house in the newer part of base housing. We had to move ourselves and luckily we had our trailer to do it. Also, it was nice that they gave us 7 days to do it. We just found someone to watch Easton on the days we did moving. (BTW, people were so nice to watch him for 5 or 6 hours for free...we have great friends!) I'll have to post pictures when we get a chance, but the house is absolutely perfect for us! I'll fill you in on all of the stats when I do the post.
As soon as we finished moving out of the old house, Scott had to pack his car and head out to Pilot Instructor Training (aka PIT) near San Antonio, TX. He'll be gone for 4 months, so he had to make sure to pack both summer and winter clothes. I'm staying back to take care of the animals and to "hold down the fort." Four months is a long time but when you think about it, he won't be delpoyable for three years when he gets back and that's a fair trade. He left on Tuesday and already misses us to death. I feel worse for him than I think he feels for me because I have to baby and he doesn't! However, Scott did say that we was excited to catch up on all of the movies we weren't able to see because of the baby. What a meanie!
Easton definitely makes the time fly by. Plus, he's a lot of fun to be with. There's always something new when it comes to our little piglet.
Anyway, I'll try to get those pictures taken and on the blog soon. Until then, watch Easton enjoying his mobile. We put it at his changing table because he doesn't like it when we put his hands through the sleeves, but now he's too distracted to care!
Oh, and here's a new album: http://www.facebook.com/album.php?aid=66952&l=16e37&id=547545638

Easton the Flirt


Easton likes to play games with his mom...and now he starting to have the smiles to prove it. Who said it takes 8 weeks for babies to smile? Apparently those rules don't apply to our little guy.

Play Time

Easton has started playing in what we call his "play station." All he really does is stare at the flashing light on top of the play station, but he gets a kick out of it. Soon, he'll start to pay attention to all of the little toys too. Here's a peek at play time!
