Auntie Cissy!

Last weekend, Christie came for a short visit, which was especially great for me, as I went and had a fabulous massage. We hung out at Starbucks, ate good food and talked all about our big family vacation!

Happy Hour

Tuesday night, 6 p.m. Dad gets a bottle of beer; Ethan gets a bottle of milk.

I Love Grandma!

What a great weekend we had! We had a much needed visit from Grammy and I don't know who loved it more, Ethan or me. We started the weekend off with a crabby, screaming baby and a bath on Friday night, but spent Saturday and Sunday shopping, eating, reading, watching football and more eating. And, Saturday night we made huge progress, as Ethan slept for 5 hours straight for the first time! Such a great weekend filled with sunshine and love.

It was so great to have my Mom here -- please come back soon Mom, we love you!

All Grown Up!

We have officially outgrown the small, hospial-issued pink bathtub and are big and old enough for the real deal!! This was the first bath in oh...6 weeks where Ethan didn't cry and have a miserable time! We're making progress!!

Trying to Beat the Cold

With the high the last 2 days being single-digits, we've been trying out all the fun baby stuff! It's really amazing how much different Ethan reacts to things week-to-week. He was really interested in the colors and the animals. He also was swatting at the mobile toys, but he didn't know it - it was purely just his swinging arms and hands, which he is starting to recognize.

Happy Weekend!
