Our little pill

So Silas has been such a little pill for the past week. He's been going through his 3 month growth spurt and he started teething at the same time. I didn't realize that teething could start this early and i guess it can. His teeth aren't breaking through yet but his gums are causing him pain. It's been getting better but the end of last week he was crying every night and the only way to calm him down was to let him chew on my knuckles. But because it started to hurt we got teething tablets and that seemed to do the trick. For the most part he's been much better but still wants to chomp on my knuckles every once in a while.
Now that Silas is getting bigger dressing him is getting to be more fun. I love dressing him like a little man and not like a baby. I don't have pictures of it but Silas got his first pair of jeans this week and they are ADORABLE!
Silas also got a hand-me-down mobile from Emilee and he LOVES it. Today while we were all getting ready for the day I put Silas in his crib for just a bit while I got dressed and when I went back to get him ready he was just staring at the mobile and talking up a storm so I just let him stay in there until he fell asleep and took a nice long nap. It was very cute. I should've done a video of it but didn't think about it.
Eric is starting up another semester of softball and the bad thing about the softball in the fall is it's FREEZING up at the fields. So i bundled up Silas. He didn't actually wear this blue outfit because I was worried about him not being able to suck his thumb if he got upset, but he just looked so cute when I tried it on him that I had to take a picture.

So Silas and I bundled up and went to watch the game in the cold. Eric did GREAT! He had a couple of nice hits and a nice double play. His team won by I believe 11 runs. I'm not sure how many games Silas and I will be watching. I'd like to go to all of them but it's just SO cold and even though Silas was warm his cheeks were a little pink and the games are just going to get colder.
This semester Eric is doing Intergrated Business Core (IBC) which is when he is in a company of about 20 people and they start a business and they sell stuff on campus. They have to present their idea infront of a loan commity and they are given money to start up their business and part of their grade is on how well they do. He just got back from a camping trip where their company was supposed to do team building and bond. It started out like that but then after the team building they were supposed to pick what they were going to sell. In the business of 20-25 people they are in goups of about 5 and each group was supposed to bring a well researched idea with a report and everything. Eric's group was the only ones to actually have their idea researched. And then when the company voted Eric's group's idea of selling nuts, jerky, fruit leather and dried fruit was the most popular but for some reason another group that wanted to sell Love Sacks (giant expensive bean bags) insisted that their idea be the one they do. They had no research done and they didn't get the most votes but for some reason they are meeting again on Friday morning to decided which one they'll do. I'm very annoyed because I want homemade jerky!
Nothing's new with me because all I do is hang out with my boy. My most exciting stories are about Silas's giant blow out's he has in stores. :)
