2 Month Checkup



My strong boy! <3

The other day Nick had his 2 month checkup!  He is in the 23rd percentile for height and weight!!  My little shrimp!!  He is healthy and strong and I am sooo happy =) The Dr checked to make sure he was doing what he should be at his age and the outcome was: he is PERFECT!!  He of course, was flirting with the doctor and nurse!  Well, until he had to get his shots =(  It broke my heart to see his sad little face but he only cried for a few seconds and once Mommy held him he was all better!!

All better =)

Since his pediatrician office is upstairs from the OB office I worked at (I am just a little sad to not be going back.....but I am glad I will be at home with him!) we stopped in to say hello to the girls!!  Janelle showed off her carseat expertise (THANK YOU AGAIN!!) and everyone enjoyed his company!!  I think the shots wore him out because he passed out and when we got home he slept for hours!! 

And he DEFINITELY is an attention getter!

Its Official........

I am a full time STAY AT HOME MOM!!!!  =)  I could not be more thrilled!!!  I don't think there is anything more important than being home with my son!!!  Yes we will lose my income, but he is so worth it!!!  My mom was able to stay home with all of us kids growing up and I wanted to do that for my son.  I am grateful that I have a husband who works hard for his family so that this is possible!!  I am soooo LUCKY to be able to spend EVERYDAY with this cute little face =)

 

Blessing Day

We had Nick blessed at my church on Sunday 3*27*11.  This was a very special day for me.  My dad was the one to give the blessing and I have never seen him so happy =)  As to be expected, Nick was quiet and perfect during the blessing.  Afterwards we had a luncheon at my parents and it was nice to see alot of the extended family and friends that I do not get to see very often.

We seriously took a million pictures of his special day, but those were just a few =)  Thank you to all who made it out!!  XOXO

First Flight!!

Going to CA, our flight was delayed and the flight was even LONGER due to the weather across the middle of the states!! I have to say, I was nervous about how he would do on the flight.....HE WAS PERFECT!!! He slept the WHOLE time, there and back!!  Don't worry, I changed and fed him during the flight =)  I had asked some friends for advice (as they had little ones they had flown with) and the outcome was to fly now and not wait!! I'm glad I did. The older they get, the harder it is! So we will see how he does when we fly back in Dec as he will be almost a year old then!


Delayed at airport...didn't phase him!



Ready for take-off from Boston!

Kris and I leaving Long Beach

Leaving CA

Leaving CA was pretty much a disaster!!!  I have NEVER seen Long Beach airport so busy!!  They rushed us (and everyone else heading to Boston) through security as fast as they could!  So much that the bins were piling up on each other and everyones stuff was falling out everywhere.  It was quiet comical if you ask me!  Well, we stopped at a bench to put our shoes back on and Kris realized he didn't have his wallet....and our flight is ready to take off!!  So the airport security is searching frantically for his wallet and Kris is freaking out....only to find that in the midst of all the chaos and bins spilling everywhere that he had thrown it into one of our bags so he could grab his shoes and we could clear out of that area!!  Silly husband!  Needless to say, he felt ridiculous =)  So we hurried off to the gate so we could board the plane!  With 2 minutes before take off to spare....we were boarded and ready to go!!  The flight home was easy and we landed almost an hour early!!  =)  It was definitely hard to leave my family, but I sure am glad to be home!! 

Hello Cuteness!!!

Loving life with this little cutie =)

Nick's Exciting Weekend......

So this last weekend, Kris' dad and wife have a HUGE St Pattys Day party with all the family and friends!!  For me its like going to Silkys.....but BETTER!  There is NO drama =)  This year, we took our little Nick!  He got to meet alot of the family he hadn't met yet and recieved even MORE gifts!!  Spoiled much...I think so!  Here are just a few pics of Nick that day....

My new BFF Cece!

Kris' sister Katrina was also in town this week and we had so much fun with her!!  We were sad to see her leave =(  But while she was here the weather was FINALLY nice enough to take our little man out for his first walk!!  I have to say, I am LOVING my jogging stroller!  It even has built in speakers so I can plug in my ipod/iphone!  I was totally rocking out and Kris was just laughing at me =)

He just LOVED it!!

Walking downtown!!  Can I just say I LOVE living here!

Exhausted!!  Fell right asleep in Aunties arms!
