Well, Will is now on cereal bottles at night and so far it's working out well. He's been sleeping more sound, but is still waking at around 3:00 AM. Sometimes I can just put his nuk in 
and he'll go back to sleep, but other times he needs that extra feeding. All in all we cannot complain. I am impressed that at 9 weeks he's sleeping this long already.
We had a really nice weekend. Will did really good with his shots. He was very sleepy on Friday and on Saturday just couldn't quite get back on schedule. By Sunday he was back to normal. On Saturday I went shopping for Sudholt Saturday. Once a month my family gets together and we do lunch and generally the ladies end up shopping after. It's really fun, just my parents and siblings. The Aviston church picnic was Saturday night and we were hoping Will could make an appearance, but with the rain and cool weather we decided just to take it easy. He was sad that he couldn't go, but we promised him next year.
Sunday we spent the day with the Kampwerth's for Brianna and Olivia's birthday celebration. Brianny turned 13 and Olivia turned 3. We hung out at Uncle Dave and Aunt Lea's house. They live in a beautiful area with a lot of shade trees and a nice big lake. Next year Will can fish with his cousins, but this year he spent much of his time asleep. :) Lily and Olivia had a great time though. Here is a pic of them on the slide.
With only 2.5 weeks of maternity leave left I have been spending most of my time holding and kissing Will. I constantly wonder if he'll still smile at me as easy after I'm back to work and all of the other things Mom's worry about. I know he'll be ok, but MAN is it hard. I'm sad already - I know that first day will consist of lots of tears (probably for both of us).

Will with Grandma K!
Here are some new pics of Will. Enjoy! 
Going back to work is the WORST. I recommend trying to just do a half day the first day back. And take something of his to smell throughout the day. You'll do great!
