Blessing

We blessed little baby B on November 7th. We decided to just do a home blessing at Jenny's (Josh's mom). We had quite the turnout. There was about 4o people who came. My grandpa did his blessing. I love my grandpa. He has been a big part of my life. He blessed me, baptized me, walked me down the aisle and now blessed my son. He is amazing! Boston is now 3 MONTHS old. He is the cutest little chunky monkey around. I just love him and can't get enough of him.

Boston is:

• wearing 3-6 months clothes
• wears size 1-2 diapers
• still loves bath time
• loves to smile and coo
• is trying to sit up by himself
• has rolled over twice(both of which I missed)
• loving his tummytime mats
• loving to have books read to him
• still cuddly
• acts shy sometimes and will turn his cheek while giving a big smirk
• still waking up once or twice in the night
• eating 4 ounces every feeding
• his mommy and daddy's pride and joy

Happy Halloween

Here is a our cute 'Lil stinker'. We had a pretty chill low key Halloween. We just stayed home watched the UTES game and handed out candy to all the little trick or treaters. We didn't get many due to the rain I think, which doesn't really do much for the pile of candy we have at our. I think our little skunk is the cutest thing ever... JUST SAYIN!

Wearin' daddy's fangs hehehehehehe

Don't take life for granted

On Sunday, October 24th around 8:00 PM, I was on my way to pick Josh up from his friend's house who was getting home from the deer hunt and came upon a car accident. There was about 15 people that had stopped already, but the accident had only occured about 2-3 minutes prior. I am CPR and First Aid certified, so I jumped out of the car and rushed over to see if I could help. There was 2 people ejected from the car, and another lady that had been trapped in the car. I PANICKED. When you are in a life and death situation, things become a lot different than in a role playing class. I took the ladie's pulse, who was trapped in the car, and she had already passed. They were doing compressions on the man who had been ejected trying to bring him back, but they weren't successful. About 2 minutes after I was on scene, the paramedics showed up. I couldn't handle all of the chaos, and decided to leave once the paramedics showed up. This taught me a huge lesson 1-Have a first aid and resucitation mask in my car at all time 2-NEVER text and drive 3- Don't ever take life for granted. These two individuals live's were taken instantly. Really Life is so short! Tell your loved ones everyday how much you appreciate and love them! I encourage everyone to become CPR and First Aid certified. You never know when you are going to be put in a life and death situation. I praise all of the EMT's and first responders who have to deal with tragic accidents like this all of the time. It definitely messes you up in the head a little bit.

Wowzers... I am really behind

So time flies when you are having fun! Our little stinker is 10 weeks old already and we have been having a blast! Boston is growing everyday and he is becoming so much fun. He is so attentive and alert and loves making eye contact. He is so smiley and has the biggest grin! He had his two month appointment and here are his stats:

Head-39 1/2 cm-10% percentile, which he gets from his mama

Weight-11 pounds 15 Ounces- 25% percentile

Height- 23.5 inches-50% percentile

I went back to work at 8 weeks and it was a bit of an adjustment, but we are getting things down. I just love being a mommy and can't imagine things without him. Here are plenty of pictures to keep you entertained.

He is 8 pounds which is up from when he left the hospital at 7 pounds 4 ounces and he is 21 and 3/4 inches long, and he was born at 20 inches long.

-He LOVES his baths

-Hates to be burped

-Likes to pee and spit up on me

-Is more alert and likes to stretch out and lay on his back

-Likes to be swaddled, but likes his arms out

-He is a very noisy sleeper, he is always making coo's, grunts, and little crys

-He ususally wakes up every 3-4 hours at night

-His daddy and mommy really love him

Paisley thought this was for her. She is so confused why she can't play with all these squeaky fun new toys. Poor baby :(
