Well, it’s been a bit since the last post. Not too much has
happened with Traz and myself but a lot has happened to Nyte. But I like to
save the best for last. Traz is working 48-50 hours a week at Intermountain
Electronics as an electrical engineer for the research and development
department. He has already helped release and produce about two or three
products since starting. Needless to say, I’m very proud of him and the hard
work he does for the company. I am loving my 24 hour a day job of being a mom.
Nyte is growing a great deal. I am growing too. Being a mother has taught me to
love on a whole new level.

As for Nyte, he is our world right now! He hasn’t rolled or
crawled yet but that’s mainly because tummy time is horrific to him. He
despises it! So that’s a bit slower but he is growing in every other way! He is
eating solids now. Pears are his favorite! That was an adventure itself. Traz
actually had to teach me how to feed Nyte, because whenever I would try Nyte
just wasn’t interested in the food. Speaking of food, we aren’t buying baby
food. We are making it! My sister gave me this really great book called, “The
Best Homemade Baby Food on the Planet”. The title says it all. All I have to
say is if you are a parent who wants the best for your baby and has some extra
time, and a food processor, I highly suggest going this route. It’s very easy
and nice to know what is going into Nyte’s tummy.
Anywho…. Nyte is TEETHING!! It all started about three weeks
ago. Nyte was sleeping through the night just fine when out of nowhere he was
up. Every. Three. Hours. Ugh. Traz and I thought he was sick. The second night
this happened (after I had been up twice already with him) I went into Nyte’s
room, put a pillow under his mattress, (because that can help relieve sinus
pressure) adjusted his blankets and then
decided to rub his gums. He gave a sigh of relief. Not a small one either. I
mean if a cat could sigh as it curls up in a ray of sunlight, it would make the
noise that came out of Nyte’s mouth! That’s when I knew Traz and I were in for
a ride. We waited about a week before getting some pain reliever for Nyte’s
gums. The first night we gave it to him, he slept for 9 hours. Bliss is the
only word to describe it. Now he has two bottom teeth that have cut through.
He’s still having some trouble sleeping at night but I can’t blame him with all
the pain he must be in. Our little 6 month old is growing so fast!
As for the city of Price, we are really liking it here! The
snow is finally starting to melt and we are excited for warmer weather. There
is a park just down the street where we live and we are itching to have Nyte go
there. We don’t know yet if Price will be home sweet home for the future but we
wouldn’t mind if it was.
Well, that’s it for now. Until next time!
