It's Been Way To Long!

I guess our only excuse for not updating our blog for awhile is that Reece is keeping us really really busy.  The Jenkins family has been doing really well.  Reece is growing like a weed and changing so much everyday.  People always told us to cherish every moment because they go by so fast and now we see what they are talking about. 

The last month Vince and I have seen the most change in Reece.  He is now smiling and jabbering like crazy.  We LOVE it and can't get enough of it.  The other night Vince and I looked at each and thought this little boy is not going to stop jabbering and go to sleep.  We finally had to just go lay him in his crib and he finally went to sleep.  Speaking of cribs, we are so proud of him and the way he has adapted to his crib.  The first night was a little rough but by the 2nd night he was doing great.  We can lay him down, still awake but drowsy, and he will fall asleep.  At night he would much rather stretch out in his crib than be held.  He has been doing great at giving us longer stretches of sleep at night.  He normally wakes up around 4 for a bottle and goes back to sleep until 7 or 8am.  I know one day we will wake up and look at each other and be shocked because he slept through the night.  I always give my mom a morning text of how Reece slept and I am looking forward to the day when I can text her HE SLEPT THROUGH THE NIGHT!  On the other hand, we are not so successful at napping in our crib during the day so we are going to have to work on that.  Any success stories, advice or tricks would greatly be appreciated.

We do have an exciting couple of months coming up.  My parents, grandparents and sister were just out for a visit and Vince's parents are coming out this weekend.  They use to come see us but now we know who they are seeing.  It also seems their visits are a lot more frequent now.  I wonder why? 

Before we know it Thanksgiving will be here and the family will get to see little Mr. Reece again.   

Here are some recent pictures of our smiley little guy!
