Life is crazy but we love it!

Nathan Smiling!

Sorry I have not written anything, having a baby causes one's life to be a little crazy! LOL!
Nathan is doing very well! As you can see he is now Smiling!!!. He will smile at you whenever you smile at him and he will coo at you, it is so cute!! And like I mentioned last time, he is indeed rolling over from his tummy to his back. He is holding his head up now, not for a whole lot of time but he is doing it. His new favorite thing to do right now is try to eat his fist and blow bubbles. We went to the Ped for a weight check up and he weighed 9 lbs 12 oz, which the doc was very impressed about! So Yeah!! He is also off of his Apnea monitor and his meds. And we did switch him over to formula which is a lot easier on all of us.
Nathan in his little bear outfit, daddy says he looks like an Ewok!


At Longhunter State Park
We are now going out places more, mostly we will go to the park and walk around. Sometimes we go to the mall in the afternoon before it gets to crowded. We also went to the mall on Wed and took his 3 month pictures at Sears Portraits. ( if you would like to look at them email me I will give you the link and password) He also went to his first formal dining event when we joined my parents and sister for the Gold Award ceremony in Nashville. My lil sis got her Gold Award, the highest award in girl scouting ( she followed in her big sis footsteps,lol love you amy)
We also had his 2nd baby shower down here in TN, and he has been visited by most of our friends down here.

Nathan also spends a lot of time with daddy, mommy usually runs away from the house on daddy's days off. :)



Nathan has also put mommy on a schedule, which usually includes not letting mommy sleep unless he is sleeping on the floor, couch or bed with me. Sometimes I can get him to fall asleep and then sneak away to do some housework or work on something that I want to do. Nathan will always wake up around 9 or 10 and fuss in his room until I get up and pick him up and do something with him, whether it be get back in the bed with him or watch the tv. We usually spend some tummy time, then time playing in the Einstein gym. I like to try to give him a little naked time so his behind will get some air, of course this is always under close supervision :) Nathan is a very demanding little boy, he will entertain himself for like 30 mins then he seems to look for me around the room and fusses at me until I pick him up and pay attention to him. So he tends to keep me pretty busy, and he does the same thing to his daddy on the day's mike is home.

But every once in a while I will drop him off at my parent's house just so I can get something done, I end up missing him most of the time.
