Happy New Year!

I hope everyone enjoyed their holiday season! We were busy bees the last couple of weeks and happy to be back home. We headed down to Southern California and spent 7 days with my parents and then headed straight to Ben's parents place. We planned to stay there for a couple of days but we enjoyed ourselves so much we stayed there for 4 nights! Ben and I were very excited to introduce Emmett to Great Grandma (Gigi) and Great Grandpa!

We hit a lot of milestones over the holidays....
He rolled over twice for Aunt Julie (he hasn't done it since)
He slept through the night (He slept 7 hours straight. Emmett's xmas gift to us)
He found his hand. (At this point his hand pisses him off more than soothes him. He hasn't got the hand control down so he waps himself in the head most of the time)
He ate 6 ounces in one feeding
He went through a whole day without pooping (we paid for it the next day with three poopy diapers in a row)
We ate dinner at a restaurant with him
He peed in the backseat of the car when we changed his diaper
