Night Out & Road Trip

This past Saturday, Frank and I had planned to go to a little house party at our friend Will's house.  My mom came for the day and spent the night to babysit Frankie.  Because of Frankie's recent night-time screaming, I was extremely hesitant to go out and after spending two hours trying to get the little man down for the evening, I was ready to throw our plans out the window, but my mom insisted that we go...so, for the first time since Frankie's arrival, Frank and I both went out for the evening!  My cell phone didn't leave my hand...even after receiving a text from my mom right when we arrived that Frankie was sound asleep, I still couldn't fully relax - I was paranoid that he was going to wake up screaming - but we managed to enjoy ourselves for a few hours and Frankie was nice enough to wait until we were home in bed before he woke up screaming. :)

The next day, we met the Garone NY family half-way at Angela's house in Delaware for a post-Christmas/January birthday celebration.  Frankie drank from the bottle for Jennifer, Aunt Laura, and Mommy while we were there!  My mom came one day last week and got Frankie to drink 2 ounces and since then we've been trying every day with some progress.  Some days he'll take 1/2 an ounce, some days 1 ounce, some days 2 ounces...Baby steps, but I'll take it!
