brian finally got his wish


it's rare (as in maybe 4 times) that garrett will go to sleep in our arms. since he was an itty bitty we usually put him in his bed to sleep. since he's been big enough to know what's going on around him, he's not interested in sleeping if there's *anything* going on!

the few times garrett's *really* slept in someone's arms, they've been mine. brian's been dying for garrett to fall asleep on him, to ease his little man in that way! well...we've discovered that G has 3 teeth coming in @ once. no fun for the little guy @ all! tonight we put him down & he started screaming (so sad!). brian went up to comfort him...& garrett granted his daddy's wish!

nothing better than holding your sleeping baby in your arms, eh? brian remarked when he *finally* came back downstairs, "that's good stuff!"

I miss those days! Ours barely fell asleep in our arms (it was against Babywise) but when they did it was so precious. I can't believe how big he is and we still have not seen him!! Maybe we will get to Atlanta over fall break.

What a precious story! I can just hear B saying that and know his heart must have been bursting after such a special moment.
