Daycare is fun!!

Well I survived my first two days at daycare. Actually I had a pretty good time; it was Mommy that had a hard time. She didn't cry too much though. I met Noah, Meadow, and Harrison-they are going to be my new best buds at daycare. Lisa my daycare lady is super nice and she always talks to me in cute voices. I ate a lot while I was there, way more often than usual, but Lisa said that's pretty normal, I just did it for comfort :) I didn't sleep much either. Mommy was really excited to come and pick me up--she missed me so much. I'm looking forward to spending my whole weekend with Daddy and Mommy so they can spoil and love me up before Monday.

Last day home wirh Mommy

Here are a few more pictures from my vacation!! Yesterday Mommy had a Dr's appointment and she is all healed up from her C-section. When her appointment was over I got to go see my favorite nurse Amy and I weighed 10lb 11oz. I just won't stop growing :) Good thing Mommy has lots of milk. Today we went for a walk and later we are going to sit and swing in the pergola. Mommy and I are getting my bag packed for daycare--I'm sure she's putting way more than I'll ever need in my bag, but that's okay, she's just nervous about my first day. We are going to spend the rest of day relaxing and enjoying each other's company:) I'll write more tomorrow all about my first day.

My First Vacation

Well I am home safe and sound from my first vacation up to the cabin. What fun did I have!! When we first got there I was so hungry because I slept in the car the whole way. I got to meet my cousin Emily and Elle for the first time--they are lots of fun and I really like to be held by them :) My Auntie Connie (I can't wait to get bigger so she can give me treats like cousin Matt) and Uncle Mike were there, so were Auntie Lynn, Uncle Jeff and cousin Matt. All the dogs were up too, when I'm bigger I'll have lots of fun playing with them. While I was on vacation I did lots of fun stuff, I got to swing in the gazebo and watch ping pong. I watched Auntie Lynn and Daddy play on the trampoline with Matt, boy was that funny, but I didn't get to jump, maybe next time. I went for a walk and got to hang out with all my Auntie's while they gave Mommy and Daddy some free time--I don't know if I liked it more or Mommy and Daddy did. I watched everyone play bean bags, and sit by the fire, and I wished Uncle Mike and Uncle Jeff good luck when they went fishing. I had fresh walleye for the first time (after it went through the food processor) and I really liked it. All in all I had a super time, the weather was perfect, it was sunny and warm and the lake was beautiful. On the way home I slept because I was so tired from all the fresh air and activity. I'm looking forward to going up again soon:)

Aren't I cute

Well it's getting to be the end of mommy's last full week home with William, both Mommy and William are sad. But it's almost time for William's first road trip. We are headed up north for the weekend. It should be a good time. Big news!! William has moved out of newborn diapers and into the next size!! He is doing really well and growing. We haven't had another night with 6 hours sleep, but that's okay, we'll get there soon, Mommy hopes. William had a busy week of going on walks, taking naps and getting fussy just when Mommy wants to start cooking dinner. He's getting big so fast and I can't believe he is 5 weeks old now. Crazy how fast the time goes, I know I'll be saying the same thing when he's 5 months old. Well off to try and start dinner-wish me luck :)

Backyard Fun

My Daddy finished the pergola for Mom and I and I can't wait until we can swing in it. Mom has been staining the swing and sh's almost finished. Yeah!!!

It'll be fun when I'm big enough to ride in the Mustang. :)

Funny Video

This is a funny video from William. When he's sleeping and you cough this is what he does!

William and Sassie have made friends, almost every time he nurses Sassie tries to climb up on my lap. We have a little jealousy going on but the girls are doing good and they don't bother William when he is sleeping or just kicking and stretching away in his pack n play. Munchie still isn't sure about coming near me when I am holding William, but she'll come around. We had a good weekend, unfortunately it's almost over. Saturday Grandma B came to visit and William had his first trip to a greenhouse, he picked out some nice vines for Daddy to plant in the yard. Then he went grocery shopping at Walmart-what a busy day. And the best part of his weekend (for Mommy) he slept for six hours. Mommy and Daddy were both thrilled and Mommy sure needed the rest. Today we just hung out at home and worked on scrapbooking. So many pictures of that handsome fellow and so few pages. Daddy is cooking dinner for us (fajitas-mmmm) so I best be off.

William and Daddy cuddling and catching some z's. How cute!! Yesterday William had his first lunch date, mommy and William met Daddy on his lunch break, of course William slept through the entire thing but that's okay. Last night mommy and daddy had to eat in shifts because William decided it was his dinner time too, I guess we'll get used to it. Our entire schedule revolves around him :) Today William went to JC Penny and spent most of his time being admired by all the ladies shopping. He loved it and worked his charm by waving his arms and kicking--he's already working the ladies. Since it is so nice and William does't feel like napping we are going to head out for a walk and hopefully he will fall asleep so mommy can take a nap too.

May 13, 2008

Sir William is sound asleep for his morning nap, which he usually doesn't take, so mom is getting some things done. He had a Doctor appointment yesterday and weighed in at 9lb 4oz--growing like a weed. Dr said he is doing wonderful and seems to be happy and healthy. This is his second day home with just mom, Jeff is back to work--yeah! and likes the job. We are doing pretty good, of course getting anything done is a chore, it took 1 hour to get ready to leave for the Dr.s yesterday, but we'll get faster. William has had his first tub bath, first part went well, then he screamed for the second half. And Daddy is now feeding him once a day from a bottle and he's doing really well. We had a great mother's day, William made mom a foot print (of course Daddy helped), and we spent the day in Albert Lea and he got to meet his great grandparents. They were very excited. He's starting to fuss so off I go :)
