4 Weeks Old

Eddie is 4 weeks old today. I can't believe it has been a month. The last week has been full of several firsts for Eddie. Last weekend we went to visit my parents in Montana. It is a 6 1/2 hour drive each way. He did so good for the most part. Got a little upset towards the end but who can blame him after being in his carseat for hours. While in Montana Eddie also saw his first movie, Transformers 3. Dan and I timed it out so he had a bottle during the previews, then we prayed he would sleep the rest of the time. And he did! He is such a good baby for sleeping through a loud, action packed almost 3 hour long movie:) I don't know that i really got to enjoy it though because I was so worried the whole time that he would wake up.
Eddie also had his first 4th of July. We had just gotten back from Montana so we spent the 4th with our neighbors here in the culdesac eating good food and watching the neighbors light fireworks. Here in Utah it was the first year that aerial fireworks were not outlawed. He did pretty good with the loud noises but had been pretty fussy so we had an early night.
Just within the last week Eddie has decided he doesn't like to sleep and likes to cry and fuss for a few hours in the evening. I can't wait until he grows out of this stage. I've been lucky the past few days if I can get a shower in each day. And even then i end up covered in baby puke shortly after:) Thank goodness Dan is such a great help in the evenings. Sometimes I think Eddie just wants to hang out with his Dad. They grow so fast:)
