I love my little man

I love him when he is sick because it's the only time he likes to cuddle anymore

I love him when he sleeps through the night

I love him when he giggles and smiles

I love him when he watches cartoons intently with his daddy

I love him when he coos in the morning to let me know he is awake

I love him when he shoves both hands in his mouth and sucks away

I love him when he gets excited to see "Mr. Monkey" blanket

I love him when I get him in the morning and he flails his arms and legs wildly in excitement


It's SO HARD to leave him as often as I do for work and school and it makes me realize how much valuable time I am missing out on. I try to make every minute count while we are together. All you moms out there who get to stay home with your sweet babies-please understand how lucky you are!!!

I love you little man!!!

My first day of clinicals!

As most of you know, I started my masters in nursing. With my masters degree, I will be a Family Nurse Practitioner and will be able to do all the things a doctor does (ie. prescribe, treat, diagnose, refer etc). In school, we started clinicals our first week. We had to do the sports physicals on all the Westminster athletes. It was pretty cool, and I met a lot of foreign athletes. Here is half of my class and my teacher.

What we've been up to...

I started school this fall, so my time is much more limited than before, however, we have done a few fun things...

• Grayson had his four month checkup. He is 14 lbs and 27 1/2 inches (about 28th % on weight and 98% on height)

• Grayson started eating baby food. His favorite is sweet potatoes, his least favorite is fruit

• The little peanut hates using his legs, so I force him to do it by putting him in the jumpy thing

• We have spent some good time with family

• We bought Grayson a new contraption....behold the bumbo! BEST INVENTION EVER!
