Watch Me Grow 4 wks

1 month old already!! I can’t believe it….time certainly does fly the older one gets!! As a child it seemed like a year could last forever now it seems as though one year quickly leads to the next….

We did it…finally took you on the boat that is!! What a trooper we went out 2 days in a row and even got stuck in a storm on the second day. You slept great, ate wonderfully, and just enjoyed the fresh air. A true water baby already!!

Catching some more zzzzz’s as the air off the lake blows threw the windows of the boat. O’how I love that little sweet heart mouth and those squeezable cheeks of yours!!

Finally, another picture with your eyes open ๐Ÿ™‚ when you are awake you are eating and when your not eating you are sleeping. O’the life of a new born!!

The booster seat in our kitchen is one of the only “safe” places big sister Boo can’t get to you easily. Boo loves to squeeze and poke you….Mommy and Daddy must watch her every minute!!! Big sister Pumpkin is starting to get a bit more confident in holding you so Mommy has a feeling there will be some close eyes on her in the near future as well.


Enjoying a little bath time!! This was your first bath in the big tub…thus far we have bathed you in the sink!! However, your getting a bit long to fit in there these days and not to mention you are very slippery when wet!!


It has been a blast watching you this past month grow into a little person…you love to be held and cuddle lots (at times this makes it very difficult to get much of anything else done around the house). Mommy tries to enjoy these moments as I know they too will go by quickly. Boo’s new word is “fuss” if that says anything.. ๐Ÿ™‚ You have turned over a number of times from your tummy to your back (mostly out of anger) but none the less it has been funny watching such a little baby roll….

Keep on rolling baby…because there are many, many more milestones to come!!

Watch Me Grow Wk 3

Well my little man is now 3 weeks old….

I have enjoyed him sooo much!! I realized I have very few pictures of him awake because when he is awake he is nursing and when he is not nursing Im taking pictures of him sleeping! The little guy enjoyed his first trip to the zoo….well I’m not so sure he enjoyed it he slept through most of it. Big sister Pumpkin and big sister Boo certainly did enjoy themselves though. The weather was gorgeous; 70’s, sunny, with a cool breeze….I probably would have slept too if I could have!

I’ve decided boy clothes are very shall I say ‘blah’ everything is blue, white, red, yellow, and green. Everything is simple, simple, simple…..so any chance I get Im putting the little guy in cute outfits with hats to spice things up a bit!! He might not think this is so cute down the road so believe me I’m taking full advantage of it now ๐Ÿ™‚


Can you say BUSTED!!!

So yes, I did catch him with his thumb in his mouth but I have not seen it since…I actually thought it was super sweet even though the thought of breaking that habit made my stomach turn. The Peanut is recognizing our voices and smiling nearly on cue…I love his little giggles and snorts when he is dreaming….he is wearing mostly 0-3 mo clothes and growing like a weed!! He still has his baby acne and the heat these past few days (90 plus degrees) is certainly not helping!!

We love you little man and love watching you grow!!

Watch Me Grow!!

Yes, Peanut is my 3rd baby in less than 5 years so in my attempt to capture those special moments….this baby is going digital!! Sad to say I have not printed a single picture of this little guy….but have taken well over 150 in less than 2 weeks….

Here he is 1 week old and sleeping like an angel!! Still doing 2-4 hour stretches…nursing like a champ…and quite the little cuddle bug ๐Ÿ™‚

Peanut sleeps in Mommy and Daddy’s room snug as a bug in a cozy bassinet handed down from his Great Aunt Karen. This bassinet has been used by 3 second cousins, 2 siblings, 1 friend, and 1 cousin….and still looks amazing!! Peanut sleeps so quietly that he will likely be in our room for quite sometime….unlike big sister K.Bear who got the “boot” at 2 weeks old!!

Our little man is now 2 weeks old (tear)!!! He has a touch of baby acne…the first of our children to ever have this…poor little guy!! Peanut weighs probably a good 9lbs (we weighed him using Daddy’s fishing scale)!!

Baby Blues….nope not me!! Im talking about Peanuts eyes ๐Ÿ™‚ they still look blue?!? Yes, this could change but it would be neat to have one blue eyed baby!! Either way those eyes are big just like his sisters!!! We are out of newborn diapers…onto size 1’s and cloth!!! Yep, bring on those Fuzzy Bunz!!! Peanut is even growing out of some of his newborn clothes already (another tear!!)….I have a feeling my baby boy is going to grow up very fast!!

Hope you have enjoyed the latest in our “boy adventure” and we look forward to sharing more with you soon!!
