an update on life with truett

Hello blog world. 

I've been a little MIA lately. But I suppose that's typical when you have a pretty fresh-out-the-womb baby at home. I have been really enjoying just taking it all in and loving on this little man. 

Last week he started giving us some real smiles and now he just never stops! It is literally the best feeling. He responds to our voices and loves to give slow blinking flirty eyes. The cutest!

He also loves to be pulled up into a sitting position and then a standing position. All assisted of course but he is so strong already it's so amazing! Everyone keeps commenting on it but honestly I have nothing to compare it to. 

He does a good job with tummy time and seems to be lifting higher and higher each time. He likes to wiggle a lot and move his legs. I can already tell he's going to be an active little guy! He just wants to move, move, move. 

He has also been getting more vocal lately and loves to make cooing sounds as well as some other funny noises. He can get a little whiny when he is tired and I know this sounds terrible but even those sounds are cute! Clearly I'm head over heels for this kid! 

Vince and I have a pretty good system down, if you can call it that. It's not necessarily a strict schedule by any means. But we make a pretty good team. Since he works nights, I'm alone with True from about 6:45pm to 11am which allows time for him to sleep after work. Then he gets up and helps me out a lot. He really is such a great dad and I love watching him with T. Their relationship is so cute and I can't wait to see it blossom even more. 

we also just started T25 workout DVDs on Monday. It's a 10 week course so hopefully we stick to it! 

I'm loving being a mom and watching Truett grow. It's amazing how much he has already grown in the past weeks and the personality he is developing. It kind of makes me sad that he's growing up so fast. I wish he could stay little! But at the same time I am so excited to see him develop even more.
