Project 366 - Week 7


February 12, 2012 - February 18, 2012

February 12: Your daytime sleep has been terrible but you finally fell asleep (albeit in my arms) and took a nice nap today. 
February 13: To try to help with your stomach problems we bought you a product called Colic Calm - the only down side to it is that it is black (as its made from vegetable charcoal) and so we have to be very careful with it (it stains clothes).
February 14: You went to your first Valentine's Day Party today at your friend's house.  Your friend N (who is several months older than you) wanted to give you a Valentine's Day kiss!
February 15: More fun in the tub!
February 16: Today we went to Yoga for the first time and after I went to a consignment shop and bought you your first suit!  Its blue and white seersucker.
February 17: Today you got your 2 months old shots but as the photo shows - you didn't have a bad reaction to them - you had a GREAT time playing on your mat as soon as we got home.
February 18: Hunter also loves your play mat and you do a great job sharing it!

A Visit from the Aunties!


On February 5, 2012 your aunties came to visit you.  This was the second time they drove up all by themselves.  We had a lot of fun visiting with them.  You showed them your room and all your new toys before we went out to lunch.

We are lunch at Unos - this was your second time eating at Unos and you did a great job (you slept most of the time we were there).  After eating we went to Toys R Us to pick out a new play mat for you.

Auntie Sarah picked out the best play mat there was and you LOVE it!  While she was busy picking out a mat for you - Auntie Danielle was busy goofing around with booster chairs :)

Such a silly Auntie!  You got very hungry while in the store and while we did our best to keep you calm you really wanted to eat.  The store was pretty empty so I decided it would be ok to feed you while in the baby section.  Auntie Danielle wanted Daddy to take a picture of the event and when I checked my camera - this is the photo that he took.

Once you were done eating we played on the little bikes for a while - you weren't super excited about any particular bike but you are still a little young.  In fact - you were down right angry that we were making you sit on a bike for that long.  But you calmed right down after we stood up and I burped you :)

After purchasing your mat we took you home to give it a try - you had so much fun looking at the lights and the mobile - you made everyone very happy!  Your aunties gave you lots of hugs and kisses and then it was time for them to hit the road so they could be home in time for dinner.

You always have so much fun with your aunties - we hope they come to visit you often!

xoxo
Mom

February 7: Bath time fun!  You continue to love the bath and on these tough days of yours the bath is our saving grace.
February 8: Chilling on the couch with Hunter - I try to get the two of you close each day and I swear he is coming around :).  I have a hope that one day you will be the bestest of friends.

Project 365 - Week 5


January 29, 2012 - February 4, 2012

January 29: Mom forgot to take a picture today because we just hung out at home in our jammies.
January 30: Today started a series of bad days in which you cried for hours on end.  I still love you but boy you were terrible!
January 31: We had a better day today but you were only good in short spurts and one of those I captured on camera when you were playing on your changing table - you love those turtles.
February 1: You again had a rough day but we did manage to have time for a family walk.  We used the new stroller that your Great Grandma Irene bought you.  You finally slept on this walk!
February 2: Our friends lent us their Rock n Play so that you could try sleeping in it since you were boycotting naps and you have had a tough week - you loved it and went to sleep within 10 minutes of being placed in it!
February 3: I tried placing you in your crib for a nap while I showered - I even put down a blanket so you wouldn't feel the cold sheet.  You lasted about 3 minutes in your crib.
February 4: You and Hunter hung out on the floor for a few minutes while I folded laundry.
