Day Eight 2012









Neil and I visited five week old grand peep Knox, daughter Kelly and son in law Kerry Sunday afternoon--an impromptu day trip. We went to 'Toots' for supper when Kerry got off work. Somehow, Knox managed to fall asleep in the middle of this crazy-loud restaurant full of football fans watching Tebow pull off yet another one. He even slept through all the servers who clapped and sang a birthday song to somebody at the table right next to his car seat. Unbelievable.








Back at the house, he eventually woke up and became so upset that he was inconsolable. We thought giving him a bath would soothe him, and it did. For a while. His mommy finally swaddled him (as his daddy Kerry says, there is power in the swaddle! And for those of you who are not familiar with this, it is wrapping a baby snugly in a large cloth so he can't move his arms and legs). Not too long after that, he suddenly stopped crying and fell asleep. Almost like a switch being turned off. I do hope the three of you got some sleep/rest! Love you guys. Hope to see you again soon!

Knox gets cuter and cuter everyday! Glad you and Neil got to go down and hang out with the Kimbroughs! Happy to hear that Kerry has finally mastered "the swaddle!" :0)

Cute!!! Maybe they should just take him to a loud restaurant before bedtime. Seems he sleeps best when there's noise around! :)
