3 Months Old

It's hard to believe that our little man is already 3 months old. I look back at pictures from when he was first born and see how much he has changed in such a short time period. Justin loves to have someone talk or sing to him...it makes him laugh and smile. And I've learned to never say never because Justin is enjoying something I said he wouldn't do until he was older.... watch TV. He loves all the different colors and light changes! Oh well, it keeps him happy and content and sometimes that's more important than what all the "books" say! I am also getting used to having a boy and the battle scars that come along with them...as you can see from the pictures! He gets more maniucres than I do =)

Happy Thanksgiving

We spent Thanksgiving in Virginia with the Parsons, while Papa and Nana Jones enjoyed the snow in Kansas. Justin and Winston did great on the 10 hour trip...both of them slept for a majority of the time! It was so nice to spend time with family and friends...and of course really good food! It was a quick trip, but we're thankful we were able to make it up there!

Hanging with the Colliers

For those of you who haven't met them, we have the BEST neighbors ever! Bruce and Carla are truly special people and Justin already loves them. (Bruce is great at getting him to smile and Carla has a special touch for putting him to sleep.) We've had fun taking Justin to his first Japanese Steakhouse and playing with him at the Collier's house.

A Big Thank You

Sorry it's been so long since my last update, but our computer has been down. I want to send out a BIG thank you to Justin's sitters over the past few months. Ya'll have been a true blessing...Jason and I will be forever grateful. (Mamie Jami, "Auntie" Lacy, Miss Lisa & Sammie, "Aunt" Carla, Nana Jones, and Miss Karen - sorry there's no picture!)

Cute Kid...Cute Clothes

Hope you enjoy the fashion show...I can get away with this while he's young!!!

Mom...take off this stupid hat!

2 Months Old

My how time flies...Justin is already 2 months old! We continue to have a blast with him and enjoy watching him grow and learn new things. His facial expressions crack us up and he's such a cutie when he smiles and laughs. He had a doctor's appointment on Monday and got all of his 2 month shots. He did great! It helps that we have an amazing pediatrician. (Thanks for the referral Lacy!)

As you can see from the pictures, he's definitely a growing boy...14 lbs and 24" long. He'll be ready for the NFL or NBA!

Happy Halloween!

A big thanks to Nana Jones for Justin's outfit and to Grandma Parsons for his sleeper!

Back to Work

Well, today was the day I returned to work...after being at home for 8 weeks with Justin. Many mixed emotions were running through me, but I was brave and didn't shed one tear! Here are a few pics of our last day together before I went back to work and my first day of work. It was so good to hold him after being away from him all day!

Happy Birthday Winston!

Today Winston turned 4 years old...not sure how old that is in doggie years?!?! We tried to make his day special by saying his favorite phrase - "Wanna go for a ride?" and taking him to Petco to get a new toy and treats. He had a blast getting out of the house and receiving so much attention.

Like Father, Like Son

Jason is the PERFECT daddy and does such a good job with Justin...even when he's crying his head off! He's been able to enjoy many of the "firsts" with our son - first to hold him, change his diaper, change his clothes, and feed him with a bottle. You can tell from the pictures that they share many similarities! (Same love for the Yankees, sleeping in the recliner, same feet, and same taste in clothing!!!)
