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!!!)

7 Weeks Old

As Justin continues to grow, I am constantly in awe of how much God has blessed our family. We have a healthy baby, a roof over our heads, food to eat, and jobs to provide for our needs. It's the little things in life that I never want to take for granted. These past 7 weeks have taught me so much - a love that cannot be explained, selflessness, and forgiveness. It's amazing how the Lord can teach you these things through a child!

Okay...here's a quick explanation on some of these pictures. Justin is still not sleeping in his crib because he's not sleeping through the night, but I'm trying to get him used to napping in it so that the transition won't scare him too much. He's still sleeping in the pack-n-play in our room, so that I don't have to walk up and down stairs at 2 AM!!!!! The second pic shows him sleeping in the stroller. Walking through the neighborhood is part of our morning routine. Happy 7 Weeks Justin!
