Yeah! His nursery is finally finished. And last night was his first night in his own room! I think it was harder for me than for him. He has been sleeping from 7:30 to about 3:30 or 4:00 so we figured we would try it out.
We went down to Walsenburg this weekend and Jack slept in the living room, so we had some practice and that made the choice easier when we got home.
We had a good time and visited both Jack's Great Aunt Marian (Antie) and Great-Great Aunt Louise. And, of course, we forgot our camera! They were both doing well and we had a really nice visit. Jack was well behaved and enjoyed meeting both of them. He laughed and talked a lot this weekend.
We learned that my dad's maternal grandfather's name was Jack ("Yacko" is how they pronounce it in Croatian) so Louise called him "Yacko"the whole day. We also read the Downing family newsletter on the way down (Scott's side of the family), and learned that there was a guy named John Preston who lived in the 1700s and is related to our family. He has a tomb in Massachusetts and Scott's Mom saw it when she was a girl.
Overall, an exciting weekend. Now back to our normal routine. We learned a lot about traveling and what we needed and did not need. It was fun and relaxing for all of us. Have a great day!
That's a very sweet room. Looks like you've got some nice baby quilts there,too! Mary
