Last Night's Bad Weather
Tuscaloosa had some pretty bad weather last night with thunderstorms and tornadoes traveling through the south. Chris stayed up most of the night so that I could sleep and he watched the weather updates on TV. Around 1am he woke me up and told me that Colton and I should get in my closet (it's the safest place in our house). The tornado sirens were going off around this time, so I got Colton and we headed for the closet. Poor baby, slept the the whole thing because he was so tired. He didn't open his eyes, not even once. Millie, on the other hand was up most of the night with Chris. I don't think that she finally calmed down until around 4am this morning. She is terrified for storms and she was so scared!! I'm sure though that she will nap most of the day today, too bad Chris has to go to work because I know he is exhausted.

Teething Baby
Chris survived yesterday with Colton. He did however say that he could never be a stay at home dad!! Especially with a baby that is teething!! Colton was a trooper when the first two teeth came in, however he seems like he is in a lot more pain this go around. I've had so many people to tell me that teething tablets work good but I have yet to find them. Hopefully I can look this weekend at Wal-Mart for some. Other than teething, Colton is doing great and continues to grow more and more each day!! He is spending the day with Big Daddy today, I can't wait to see how that goes!!

Working with Mommy
Mrs. Whitaker was sick this morning so I ended up taking Colton to work with me. He was such a good little boy and played all morning long in my office. We went home during lunch and found that daddy was getting off of work early so Colton stayed at home with daddy.. I can't wait to get home tonight to hear about their day! I'm sure they are both having a wonderful day together! I'm jealous I can't be there!

N'Harmony's New Website
Check out N'Harmony's new website at www.nharmonymusic.com. They are still in the process of creating it but there are some great pictures on there from their Ireland Trip. Oh and by the way, it looks like Chris and I will be going to Ireland next year after all. They are scheduled to sing again in Ireland next May. I can't wait!!
