Finally- Some new pictures

The King is now five and a half weeks old and is growing like a weed. At his one month check-up he weighed 9lbs, 9oz and is gaining by the minute. He is already in 3 month clothes and fits in some of the 3-6 month stuff. He continues to be the greatest baby ever. Last night he slept 7 hours! It was only one night but I am hoping for two (and to take advantage of the time, last night we were only able to sleep for 4 of those hours). He continues to smile all the time, especially after he wakes up from a nap, first thing in the morning or after he eats. He is just so much fun. A true joy and blessing in our lives. I just can not believe how quickly he is growning up!

Everything else is good. I had my check-up today and everything is great! A few more pounds to lose of course but hopefully that will happen sooner than later- especially with our new treadmill being assembled next week. Patrick is still loving his job, just busy again with lots of cases.

The house, I mean money pit, well... let's just say we got a new sump pump last week and having gutter work done very soon.

Hopefully I will update soon!

Happy Mother's Day

Happy Mother's Day! What an amazing title I have to say!

Ethan is such a big boy now! He celebrated his 1 month birthday on Saturday and is doing so well. He started smiling last Monday and has not stopped since. I can get him to smile most right after he wakes up from a nap or first thing in the morning. His big gummy grin melts my heart every time I see it. I of course have tried to snap a picture but by the time the shutter closes on the camera the smile has eluded me. I have captured a half smile that I will try to post this week. He is too cute. I will not however give up my quest a picture that easy, I will keep trying.

Other than that things are good. The house is still a money pit. The hot water heater broke this weekend and we have to install 2 sump pumps in the basement. More contractor coming this week. Lucky me. At least we are getting it all out of the way now.
