Birmingham!

Most important news of today---Colin went 7 hours last night between eating :) Bless Derek, he slept on the couch after his 830 feed to do the next one, and Colin woke him up at 330. I got to sleep until the next feed-630 so this momma got 10 glorious straight hours of sleep :) I think Birmingham definitely wore him out being on the go so much! He got up for good at 630 and was in the best mood! I think it was Colin's Christmas gift to me ;)
 
All smiles after eating and seeing Derek coming in the living room!

Little man started feeling much better by Friday, so we headed to Birmingham Saturday morning to visit and help Seth and Jessica move! Colin was a trooper for the 2 hour trip and we first went to see Noah and Chelsea and their new place! I can't believe their little man will be here in less than 12 weeks! Noah is recovering from a broken right hand :(
 
 Such naturals ;)
This Christmas we drew names for gifts. Derek drew Noah's and Chelsea drew mine, so we did our gift exchange while we were there! Happy to be moving closer to them in just 6 months, we sure do miss being close! Soon our little guys will be playing together!
 
We met up with Ross and Laura for lunch at Jacksons then headed over to help with the move! Seth and Jess bought such a nice house just down the street from their other house so the move went pretty fast and was pretty much done once we got there. We got to visit with Derek's parents some before they went back to Huntsville. Colin even got some snuggling time with Seth!

We stayed at their place and spent most of Sunday cleaning the new place and running errands. Colin was really a trooper the whole weekend, he slept in the Bjorn as we cleaned and worked.
 


 
Last stop on the way back to Chatty was to see Kate and Dave! I miss my Kate and we don't see them enough! Colin has so many people to meet and so little time ;)
 

 
We are ready to be living closer to all these lovely people again! Soon :)
One day I will post some pictures that don't always have Colin in them..haha. He is just much cuter than anything else I take pictures of!
 
Staying in Chatty this week and having our first Christmas as a family of 3! Derek is off all week! Then heading to Huntsville this weekend! This kiddo is becoming a travel machine!
