Smiley Boy

Little ManMan has been smiling an giggling like crazy.
He loves it when we play with his nose and lips. It always gets a big smile out if him.
I finally got a few pictures of it, they are a little blurry but still the cutest thing I have ever seen!



Cutest thing EVER right?!?!

The worst part about digital cameras....I don't have any prints to show people or keep in a scrap book. I am going to have to get a lot better about visiting the photo center.

He also took his first real bath with Mommy this past week. He loved it! He lounged around for a while then started kicking and splashing. We are going to have a little fish on our hands I just know it.

Christmas in January

I'm going to take you back almost one month to Christmas Eve at my in laws.

Imagine my surprise and excitement when there is a Cricut machine under the tree with my name on it!! I am just like a little kid and cannot wait to get home and play with it.

Once home I am a good Mommy and get Jaxton down to bed before tearing into the box and setting it up.

Now imagine my disappointment when it is not cutting properly, just scratching the surface. I go to bed confused and sad knowing that the next day, Christmas was jam packed with more family and I would not be able to tinker with it.

When I finally get a chance to sit down and look for help on the Internet I find a couple possible solutions, but none of them work for me. So I have to call Cricut, the want me to send it back, I do and wait patiently by the window awaiting the delivery of my toy.

I couple weeks later we got home from running errands and there was a small package from ParvoCraft on my doorstep. Turns out for some reason they send me a Gypsy instead of a Cricut. So after another call they send me another return packing slip and a week later another box shows up.

This time a much bigger box and exactly what I wanted.  I got a couple quick crafts in and I have ideas for many more.
My new toy :)

I used some red vinyl to jazz up my white Kitchen Aid

I used one of the cartridges to make label tags for my boxes

Work Woes



My baby is 6 weeks old today.

He is smiling it Mommy and Daddy,

He is making cooing noises,

He is trying really hard to roll over, loves to bounce up and down

He is a total ladies man.

It makes me so sad to think that in two days I have to start work again and will not get to be around him all day.

I am so jealous off all the stay at home moms who get to watch their child's every big milestone and even the small ones.

I want to spend every day at home with him.

I have been so spoiled these past 6 weeks, just the 3 of us at home with nothing better to do than watch him sleep.

I am so afraid that I am going to miss everything.

Even Robie gets to stay home and see him as he has not been called back work.


Look at that little cutie sitting on his Daddy (nice smile hun :)

Robie's Turn

This time four weeks ago I was in a hospital room anxiously awaiting 10cm and finally meeting my little man.



Today we hit a milestone, Jaxton took his first bottle and I cried. I was sad that my little man doesn't need me, I was happy that daddy finally got a turn at that special connection and I was scared that he would no longer want the boob.

But all that was for nothing because of course he still needs me and he will still take it directly from the source :)
