I got the most recent pictures off my camera and thought I would share some pictures from Aimee and Jason’s visit this past weekend: Fitz thought Jason was a fun new toy/person to play with and snuggled right up. He was very good with all the grabs and quick movements from little Jason even one …
So I chose sleep over nursery progress this weekend but that doesn’t mean we didn’t get any progress done. Ryan had a ton of work to do so he wasn’t able to work on the house but he could hang with little Alex while he worked. Friday night I managed to get everything in the …
Alexandra is officially 2 weeks old now and what great 2 weeks it has been. Unfortunately with the end of 2 weeks comes the end of Ryan’s time off which felt much too short since part of it was in the hospital and part of it was spent working on the nursery. We did enjoy …
The second week is wrapping up (man does time fly fast) and little Alex is now 5lbs 11 oz and 19 inches long. Her 2 week appointment went great and she doesn’t have to go back for 6 weeks (2 month appt). She’s eating great (9-11 times a day) and obviously growing fast. She doesn’t …
A huge THANK YOU to my dad and brother this week, without whom we never would be so close to not only finishing the nursery but also the tvroom now! The house is so quiet now that the week has ended and everyone has headed home (PJ left Thursday night and Dad left this evening). …
Our little Alex just couldn’t wait to join us and at 37 weeks pregnant my water broke while I was at work (at 2pm). Since I’m only in the office 2 days a week this was unexpected and such a surreal experience. With no contractions the doctor said I could drive to the hospital, so …
This weekend I had my second baby shower (my local friends threw one for me). They went with a theme for gifts and all got me/Itty baby books! I am in awe with the little library Itty has already now! And of course some of them couldn’t resist a few other gifts – including a …
Ryan was busy Friday night getting more prep work done on the nursery, working around the huge sheets of drywall that were off to one side he drilled some holes for electrical (to run the light circuit) and screwed in almost all the firring strips on the ceiling (the ones he could get to). Then …
Nice and early so Ryan could help unload it before he went in to work even! The drywall for the nursery was boomed through the upstairs window and is now sitting mostly in the nursery. It’s going to be very interesting maneuvering these large sheets around this weekend. Luckily we can do most of what’s …
Well spring is most certainly in the air (let’s hope there aren’t any future frosts waiting to kill the plants that have sprouted early now!). And success – my tulip (and other) bulbs are popping up! Besides the crocus’ which I planted throughout the yard, I planted the larger bulbs in 3 locations – my …
