This week (like many others) is more or less a blur as I write this post. Here are the highlights. Much of the week I was prepping for Betsy’s party. Made some decorations, put together favor bags, and cleaned up/organized the house (some of the house, anyway). I painted my kitchen and laundry room! I … [Read more…]
Monday was a holiday, so we got a free day with daddy! We tried to go to Chuy’s for dinner (one just opened here in Sugar Land) but at 4:45 there was an hour wait to we went somewhere else. We had a rough start but overall it was good. Tuesday Ben went in to … [Read more…]
Biggest news of the week, and maybe the year (after Christopher being born of course!)…Ben came home! The beginning of this week we spent just trying to pass the time until Ben came home on Thursday. Monday Christopher had a round of shots at his 2 month well check. On Thursday night we watched the … [Read more…]
We had a 2 month check up for Christopher last week. He is 24.5 inches “tall” (95%), weighs 12 pounds 10 ounces (57%) and his head is 15.5 inches (56%). He got 3 shots and one oral vaccine at his appointment and that made for a rough afternoon, but that evening was fine. He is … [Read more…]
We drove in to Austin Sunday morning and stayed with Kate and Steve until Wednesday, then we drove out to Round Rock. Grandpa and Marj flew in that night and we stayed there until Friday morning. We came back to Houston on Sunday afternoon. It was a good week away, but I was glad to … [Read more…]
On Monday Lisa and the kids flew back to New York. A friend of ours from Sugar Land recently moved to Austin. She and her kids came by to play for a little while. Then mom, dad, the kids and I went to Five Guys for lunch. I headed back home after lunch. We skyped … [Read more…]
Kate and Steve took Ben to the airport Sunday night, so from Sunday night until Tuesday afternoon we were on our own. I like that my time alone has been in small doses interrupted by amazing visits from family! Tuesday my mom came down in the afternoon, just in time for Chick-fil-A! That night I … [Read more…]
I did a poor job of photo-documenting this week. And since I’m writing this a week late I can’t remember exactly what we did! My mom was here all week. She left on Thursday afternoon and we spent a little over 24 hours alone until Kate and Steve picked Ben up at the airport and … [Read more…]
On Monday my parents watched the kids and I went to get a pedicure! That night they watched the kids again so that Ben and I could go to dinner for my birthday. Christopher did fine both times we were gone. Tuesday was my birthday, so my mom fixed this delicious breakfast! My parents headed … [Read more…]
Our little man is 1 month old today! Hard to believe. I got this Jelly Cats raccoon to take pictures with him during his first year. It’s pretty darling. Since he doesn’t have a 1 month well check I weighed him myself on the scale by weighing myself (eek!) and then myself while I held … [Read more…]
