It is WAY too hot!

So, it's too hot today! We bought a pool and put it in the driveway (didn't want to kill the grass). I don't think we could get any more ghetto...but then again...we do live in a trailer park!! :) Here are some pics from our day!!!

Nolan getting ready for the pool:


Daddy & Nolan in the pool. He just put a toe in and it was just too cold. So we got him out of the sun and into the shade with momma:



A very very sleepy baby!

Three Months Old!






I can't believe it, Nolan is 3 months old today! He's growing so fast right now, I swear he does something new everyday! Here are some more pics!!!

Nolan on his 3 month old birthday. He didn't get cake, but did get breastmilk!



He looks like he is thinking about something...


This picture makes me smile every time I see it. It was near the end of the photoshoot and he was DONE!

Nolan is taking a MUCH needed nap. So I figured I could either clean my house since my mom is coming tomorrow, or play on the internet. Sorry mom, the house is going to be a mess! :)

Here are some pictures I've been meaning to post!

Me, Nolan, Chris, Jessica & Brian at Chris & Jessica's wedding (May 10th)


Me, Nolan & Brian. I think Nolan has his hand down my shirt! :)



This is Nolan's favorite thing next to drooling. He loves to chew on his hand, then cries when he bites too hard!


My little man, looking so grown up already.



Nolan, blowing bubbles



My little pirate!

Entertainment for one

It's 6:37 in the morning on a Saturday...and I'm up! :( But, the good news, Nolan slept from 8pm to 6 am, can't be upset with that! I have to work today and was going to get up around 6:45 anyway...so there is no sense in going back to sleep!

I feed Nolan when he woke up and he fell asleep shortly after filling his belly. I put him down in his crib and he was snoring a few seconds later. Then all of a sudden he woke up. He is in there cooing, giggling and hiccuping all at the same time. At least he is entertaining himself. He sounds so cute that I want to go play...but I have to appreciate the fact that an almost 3 month old can be by himself for a little bit. I think I'll just let him have his fun, whatever he is doing in there. Can't be all that exciting...the only thing in his crib is him and a paci and it's pretty dark in there!

Well...I think it might be over...the sounds are turning from happy to a little pissed...at least he had fun for a little bit! :)

What's new?

It's been a little while since I blogged, life has been fairly crazy!!

On June 7th I was in my friend Fawnda's wedding. Nolan got to attend his second wedding in his short 2 1/2 months of life. He was pretty good...of course he was a lady charmer as usual!

The next week Nolan & I went to visit family down in Kitsap County...it was a very fun trip! Nolan even had a first when we were down there! He rolled from his tummy to his back for the first time (well, first time where it was a roll...he went from tummy to side then got stuck and kinda flopped the rest of the way...but this was an honest tuck & roll this time!) when we were at Grandpa's house (my dad). That was pretty exciting.
He was also given an exersaucer from Katie too, which he loves...


Last week I also started my new weekend job! I'm working 6 hours a week (Saturdays from 8am to 2pm) at a Chiropractic office. I love the job soooo much...I'm so glad that I can make a bit more (at least to cover our health insurance) and then I get out of the house a little bit and Brian gets some father/son time...it's good all around! I miss my boys though...the first full day was a bit difficult just because I missed them, but they visited me at lunch with was great!
This week I've been working at a company called Puget Safety. It has been SO much fun, I get to bring Nolan with me. We've been having a great time, but I have to say I miss my afternoon naps! :) This little job is just a temp thing for the week...so next week it's back to the regular routine...well...except for the fact that I'm picking up 5 Thursdays in a row at the Chiropractic office...I guess I just like being busy! :)
Well...time for me to close this up and go to bed. Just a cute pic of Nolan to end it with! :) He is growing up so fast!

2 Month Checkup

Well...I almost forgot to blog about his 2 month checkup.

The Vitals: 12 pounds 2 ounces (50th%), 24.25" (90th%) and I don't remember head measurement, but I think it was very average.

The Shots: he did VERY well. He cried a little bit, but settled down pretty fast. I've seen/heard MUCH worse fits when driving down the road! He slept a lot the rest of the day, which was nice!

The last 3 nights Nolan has slept from 10pm to 6 or 7am...this ROCKS soooooooo much! I was putting him to bed earlier (around 8pm) but this later bedtime is working much better for me...I like getting so much sleep!

Well...I'm in a wedding tomorrow...so I'm off to bed! :)
