It has been awhile.....
Since my last post a lot of things have happened to our family! Barret now has TWO teeth that have shown through his gums, as well as constant crabbiness and diarrhea to go along with them. We have had many more sleepless nights due to these silly teeth and Barret has awoke many mornings snuggles in Mama and Daddy's bed.
Over labor day we took a very spontaneous trip to the St Louis Zoo and arch. Barret LOVED the elephants, which we thought was so suiting, considering elephants are the only animals that we really have in our home. He was very intrigued by the fish in the hippos tank and he thought it was the best time to start drinking from a straw. Barret just snatched the straw right from our pink lemonade and started chugging. It was the funniest thing, and he knew he was just so cute :)
Barret now says 'mamama' to go along with all the 'dadadada' he is constantly saying. Unfortunately those 'mama's' don't come out very often, but when they do, they are such sweet noises and I love them.
We are also finally getting back into the swing of being at the babysitters and although both Barret and Mama would rather be at home together, we know that right now this is just how it is supposed to be. When we are home and it is just the two of us we LOVE to nap together on the big bed, sing and dance to the radio, and have crawl races down the hallway. Our favorite part of the day is when daddy gets home from work and we rush to the top of the stairs with great big, giant smiles and love on him so much with kisses through the baby gate!
Tomorrow Daddy starts his new job at Darnell. We are so excited and can't wait. We celebrated his last day at the bank on Friday with dinner out to Cosi and a nice trip to Kroger for groceries :)
From now on Daddy will get home at 4:30 and possibly even 3:30 everyday and we will get to see him and spend so much more time with him! We can't wait!!!!!
The only thing Mama doesn't like is that now Barret has to go to the babysitters at 6:45am instead of 9:30. We are hoping that this early morning will get him back on his regular schedule with meals and naps again because we have been way off since mama went back to work.
I think that is all for now. Hopefully it's not thanksgiving before I post again.
Oh ya, I am currently concocting an idea to make Barret a Halloween costume....In my head it is super cute, but you will see pictures of the real live thing come Halloween time and I'm sure it will not be nearly as cute as I am hoping for.

A Tiskit, A Taskit, A Pearly White Tooth!!!!!
It's been a while since I last posted. Mama got rehired and has been absolutely exhausted, she is working in the high school in a CI classroom. These kiddos just plain drain her and by the time she gets to pick up Barret from Miss Michelle's house she is ready for a nap.
Daddy got a new job and he starts on September 23. We couldn't be more excited because now he gets to come home as early as 3:30 and never has to work on Saturdays! YAY!!
Barret is also finally cutting a tooth! He is the crabbiest ever and doesn't sleep and is just so unhappy. I feel for him and I can't wait to see that pearly white tooth all the way in!
