So as our little darling approaches 2 his sleeping just plain stinks! Really he hasn't slept well since he had tubes put in his ears. (Been to the Dr twice and all is great with his ears) My take is we traumatized him as the nurses took him screaming from me and when he woke up we weren't there either. So now for nap or night time he just wants someone in the room until he falls asleep. Which is all well and good if we are talking 5-10 min but NOOO we are talking 30, 45, and hour before he falls asleep. Then he is waking up multiple times in the middle of the night and wanting me to stay in there for the same amount of time. I have talked about his stamina when fighting sleep and he can go for a long time!
So the other day we decided to let him cry it out. Nap time went great, Daddy got him and laughed bc he only kind of had his diaper on. We didn't think much about it.....well fast forward to the 2:00am wake up. I walk in, Momma wet, pee pee. So I think he is telling me that his diaper is extra wet and he wants a new one. I bend down to feel him and pat his naked bum, with the diaper so nicely thrown out to the floor with PJ bottoms still on the diaper. So we get a new diaper and tight PJ pants.....7:00am wake up Momma Momma. This time I can see that his diaper and pants are on the floor. Momma, Momma poop, poop....stink, stink yeah no diaper = Poop in his bed....so change the sheets and just thankful that he didn't play in it. :)
Lucky for us that was a one night thing...the sleeping thing is still painful. I looked up things on line and learned nothing.....but a phase and lots of parents sleeping on their kids floor. Thank goodness Mom is here so she is taking on the nap and 1 st going to bed....lets pray for whatever is waking him up in the night to STOP!

This swing made me laugh!
We built lots of towers.
Playing in the water, no matter how cold, never gets old!
Being silly with Gpa Jay
Bryce could open all the doors and loved to go out on the porches.
Blowing off the dandelion seeds, watch out you may get wet!
Big Hail Storm.
Everyone enjoyed the rope swing. Bryce was too small and Addison wasn't interested. Here is Kaleigh going across.
The view on top of Engineer Pass, never gets old.
He broke free!
Bryce trying hard to break free and run! On our way into Silverton.
Great Gpa and Bryce sharing apples after playing hard at the park.

Sparkler Time! Bryce was not interested at all on the 4th. It was too loud and he wanted to go home. A few nights later he was interested in trying them though.
Attempting a family picture. Bryce was pretty excited to try and run away.
I am outta here!
Love my cousins!
The Ladies! Aunt Heather, Kaleigh, Addison, Grandma Kate
We had trouble with this one. Poor Aunt Heather...Bryce really wanted to get your nose.

Everyone looking out the windows at Old Carson City a preserved Mining Town.
Smores mmmm
This is Aunt Heather's Mom & Dad they came to the cabin this summer too. They always had wayyy better lunches than my Mommy packed for me. Thanks for always sharing.
This is my favorite. I even figured out how to give it gas. Mommy & Daddy moved pretty fast when I gunned it...they forgot to put it in neutral.
Love the 4 wheelers!
Uncompahgre Peak 14,309. We have been to the top several times, but did not this trip. Might have been the extra 30lbs on one of our backs that held us back. Lake City is very busy in the summer bc it houses 5 of Colorado's 14,000 ft mtns.
OHHH hiking!
Kaleigh and Aunt Kris down the mnt...you can't tell but she braved it in the rain that started soon after the picture.
Old truck has been at our picnic spot since I was a kid.
Kaleigh & Addison teaching Bryce how to throw big rocks into the stream. In 3 wks this never got old.
