3 Months Flies By When You're Having Fun!

Boy oh boy!

Is this little man growing or what?

This 3rd month has been a blast!

Some of his favorite things to do include (in no particular order):

• smiling
• being held
• meeting new friends
• being loved by his cousins
• bath time
• sleeping :)

Some things he is still working on enjoying (again, in no particular order):

• the car seat
• tummy time

One thing he has perfected is having us fall head over heals for him!

We love you Buddy!

Baby It's Cold Outside . . .

This past Sunday the cold weather paid a visit,

so what a great day it was to take Jack to pick out his very first Christmas tree!

He was quite amazed by them.

We actually left with the first one we laid eyes on!

We knew it was a keeper!

Just like this little man. :)

We are looking forward to some family time around this Christmas tree for sure!

Just A Few Favorites . . .

Rare footage of Jack enjoying his "tummy time."
It doesn't last long.



My how our time in the swing has changed.
He discovered it has a mirror and it actually is fun!

Daddy has been a hard worker this month. We l o v e having him home!



Just relaxing after a long day shopping.
He's working on being 'ok' in the carseat.

A Very Thankful Thanksgiving :)

This year our Thanksgiving was much different than the past few years.

We traded in our usual Thanksgiving all day tailgate along with the Texas A&M vs. UT game to stay home and cuddle up with our new addition!

We did miss seeing our friends,

but

f a m i l y

was much more important this year.

We were able to spend Thanksgiving Day at Granny and Gramps' house in Brazos Country.

Then we went back home to rest up and bake some more!

Sunday we had Thanksgiving dinner with Nanna and Papaw at Uncle Timmy's house in Houston.

So sad we are missing pictures from that day!! :(

The whole Thanksgiving week was so special for all of us.

Missing loved ones for the first time was very hard.

This year we were very thankful for the

f a m i l y

that we do have and the time we were able to spend together.

We also look forward to the time we will be spending with them ahead...

Christmas is just around the corner! ;)

We Are Busy at 2 Months!

We've got a lot of catching up to do!

First things first, our little man is 2 months and growing strong!

This month he is no longer . . .

• ...having screamfests in the evening (yay!).
• ...having poopy blowouts (double yay!).
• ...screaming during bathtime.

He is instead . . .

• ...giving Mama and Daddy tons of smiles and lots of happy noises!
• ...in cloth diapers pretty much full time and Mama is loving it!
• ...enjoying his baths, and actually getting upset when it's time to get dressed!
• ...holding his head up much better during tummy time.
• ...occasionally rolling over from tummy to back.
• ...going to sleep around 9:00pm with a wake up around 2:00am and 6:00am.
• ...not going hungry! 2 month check up he weighed in at 12 lbs 14oz. Woh Buddy!

We are still . . .

• ...enjoying every minute of this little man.
