Oh No!

Two new problems:

1) Jack has been escaping more and more out of his swaddle...


2) I think we have a thumb sucker on our hands...at night and nap time he is swaddled but he LOVES to chew his hands and I caught him with BOTH thumbs in his mouth the other day...hmmmm like mother like son

Yay for Christmas and Christmas Trees!!

Sunday we headed out to get our first Christmas tree! I am very proud about how it turned out!! This year is our first Christmas in our house with the baby. So excited!

What Happens When You Leave the Men Alone....

John graciously babysat last night so I could go to Anne Marie's babyshower (I am slowly learning you aren't supposed to take your baby to everyone elses parties) and this is how I found them when I got home:

Lying on the floor watching "Die Hard"

I love how focused Jack is...he LOVES TV...a couch potato in the making!

Tessa's Photos

Tessa Duquette came over last week and took pictures of the little man. I think they turned out great! I can't wait to have her over again to take more photos!

my sweet little feet


I am yet to capture this kind of smile, LOVE it!!




Phew, that was exhausting!

Our Second Date

Wow, I am so lucky. I have the prettiest girlfriend! My girlfriend, Alice Tafel, came to Virginia Beach to visit with her Lolly. While she was in town we got to have our second date. On our first date I was very intimidated by her because she seemed so much bigger than me. Now we are practically the same size, I am growing so fast!!

Isn't she pretty?

2 Months Old!!

It's hard to believe Jack is already 2 months old!! I am getting along pretty well and loving Jack more than anything. Today he had is 2 month check up with Dr. Snyders. He thinks he is starting to look a lot like his uncle cliff...although he did say that Cliff had a MUCH larger head, figures. Jack now weighs 11 lbs, 6 oz! He is getting so big!! No big news. He has reflux but since he is such a happy baby the doctor doesn't want to put him on medication, lucky me, just more puke to wear! He wants us to send Jack back to CHKD to have his kidney's ultrasounded again, so I am going to try to do this in December. He seems to have survived his shots without much problem. Although, he has been sleeping since we got home so I am about to wake him up to feed him. Enjoy some new pictures :)
Aren't I cute?
I love my Daddy
