Come on. Let me see your face
Yay! It is you! I love you, mom!

Sleeping Troubles

Our main man had been a dream baby at night - sleeping for 5-7 hour stretches - but recently started giving us some kickback when we try to put him down in his crib. And naps during the day - forget about it. He's definitely not our sleep anytime, anywhere newborn any longer. He's become such a stubborn (gets it from his momma) and opinionated (gets it from his daddy) little guy. His stance on this sleeping stuff?

I don't care if I pooped in both my miracle blankets, I don't like this swaddle me gown...unless of course you unzip the bottom to free my legs and let my hand stick out.


Speaking of my poop stained miracle blankets, I think they may be a little too constricting as well.


The paci? It's okay, but only if you hold it in my mouth for me. Move your hand and it's over.


If you like me like this, don't put me down. It's that simple. And don't even think about any funny business. I will wake up.

Slayin' Pescado

This past weekend Jimmy and Kevin went fishing in the lower Cape Fear and brought home the bacon - or actually 19 and 22 inch flounders. They also caught a bonnet shark, an amberjack and some other "junk"... Here are some pics from their excursion.

See, we, and by "we" I mean Jimmy, does more than just hang out and take pics of our adorable son all day. On that note, daddy and Uncle Kevin's fishing success called for a mid-day costume change...

Semi-Sweet

There is not enough time or room in my pre-Danny pants to make all the desserts I've pinned recently. I came down with a major sweet tooth in my 3rd trimester that I just can't kick.

Better than Anything Cake


Twix Brownie

Best Banana Pudding


Chocolate-Coconut Bars


I guess I'll just have to settle for some nibbles on this little guy's toes, fingers, thighs, belly and cheeks!

Blowout Blooper 1 of...

...probably too many to count. 

I had an orthodontist appointment the other day. My permanent retainer broke, so I was getting fitted for another one. Danny was sitting in my lap in the dentist chair giving all the ladies googly eyes when I felt a wet explosion. And I was wearing white.

I had to wrap Danny in a couple of those dentist bibs so we could finish the appointment. "Breathe through your nose," said the orthodontist as she took impressions of my mouth, something that kind of makes me gag on a good day. Where will I be and what will I be doing when the next blowout strikes?? His onesie says it all...

What's underneath him was too gross to photograph

Changing Station

In Danny's "old age" he's grown to like diaper and clothes changes. Something about chilling on the changing pad and being partially to fully naked - he's just all coos and smiley. Recently at the changing station...

Boxing an imaginary speed ball
Static cling
Yep, that's pee on the wall. Boys...

Bless you sweet boy...
