He loves his fist.

He loves to SMILE!

He is starting to laugh....it's so precious!

He sleeps 7 to 8 hours a night.

He loves to cuddle his blanket.

He loves his swing.

He loves to EAT { 6 ounces every 3 hrs}.

We are so blessed to have him as our little boy!

happy birthday lover.......

I wonder why this boy is so happy?

Oh that's right.......

He gets to meet his family and friends

next week!

{maybe his Mom is totally happy too!}

This little boy is my world. I would give, do, and sacrifice anything for him. I love being his mom and am so thankful that our Savior let me be this little boys mama. I am excited for the rest of my children to come!

I am grateful for my mom and am looking forward to seeing her very soon. I don't know how she had all of us {6} within 9 years and was done by my age.....but I look up to her so much and am grateful for what a wonderful mother she is.

xoxo

Hope you all had a Happy Thanksgiving! We did!

Oh how sad!

the hub watched our babe last night.

this is what i found on our camera today....

so sad!

i love this little boy! he is what gets me through the day. i am missing my family and friends more these days. maybe because my hub is always gone studying {not complaining, just lonely)

or maybe because it's the holidays??

i am so grateful that i have this little boy in my life! i love him so much!! he brings me joy everyday.

happy sunday!

xoxo

bath time!

I hope you all aren't getting sick of my posts about my favorite little person of all time! He is my world, so for now that is what I have to blog about!

I just love our bath time together! My Little babe loves the water! Last night he cried because I got him out and he was not able to enjoy it for as long as he usually does. ha ha

My babe is 2 months!

Dean Weston is 2 months today!

And he is sick.....poor guy.

He has a bad cough and won't

sleep soundly unless it's on me.

Which I don't mind too much.....

I love cuddling him.

Get better soon big guy!

we love having him as OUR

baby boy!!

my little chub-a-lub

my little boy had his one month check up today. {though he will be 5 weeks on Monday.} he is a

big boy! he is 12lbs 2 oz and 22 and 3/4 inches. all in the 90Th percentile. when i used to here mothers say...my baby is such and such percent...i thought really? why do we care? But since i had my little man...i totally get it! when she told me he was in the 90Th percentile i started to beam!! i was such a proud mama!

on a side note....his belly button has not fallen off yet which raised some concern. and i am really hoping it falls off in the next 10 days...{before we go back to the doctors} cause if not...he may have to have it surgically removed! oh so not fun! pray for my little boy....

anyway....i have loved having him around he is my little buddy.

he met his grandma and grandpa Daniels for the first time last week! it was so fun to have them visit! we miss you guys already!

xoxo

I love this face

this little face makes my day.....everyday.

i just love him!

what one month?

i seriously cannot believe my little babe is one month tomorrow! the time flies by so fast! he is so much fun. i am liking that he is more awake now and his little personality is coming out! he smiles constantly and love to be held and rocked. he loves story time and loves to watch his dad play the guitar and sing nursery rhymes. he likes to play pat a cake and is a great traveler. i am really liking that he falls asleep when i am out running errands. it is so nice!

he is such a big boy! i am excited to see how much he has gained on Thursday, he feels so heavy when i hold him now....i can't wait till he's like 6 months. ha ha

he is going to be such a tank -a -tank.

he is a good little eater...loves the nums. I am excited to see how he eats baby food.

I love being his mom and AM SO PROUD THAT HE is my baby boy!

oh and He SLEPT A SOLID 5 Hours last night!! Yeah!

2 week check up

I can't believe my little boy is 3 weeks on Monday! The time flies when your preoccupied with such a precious boy!

I love being his mama! I love that he cuddles with me. I love when I kiss his checks and he smiles so big! I love his little cry cause he is hungry and wants some numa nums. I have waited awhile to be a mama and I love being one. I am soaking it all in. Even our sleepless nights together and our days that we stay in our pj's all day, I just want to take it all in. I just can't help but think soon you will be walking and talking....oh it kinda makes me sad!

I took him to the doctor today. He weighs 10 lbs 11 oz. I was such a proud mom! He is growing and getting so big! I was a little nervous he wasn't getting enough food. I go again in a couple of weeks and I am excited to see his progress!

After I went to Target. I had a smile on my face the whole time. I have been wanting to be one of those women that have a car seat in their cart for so long. To start a new chapter in my life has been what I have been wanting, to be a mom. So far it has been very rewarding. Believe me...It hasn't all been roses. I have had bleeding body parts that I didn't know would bleed and hurt so much. I have wanted to cry when I didn't know why my baby was throwing up right after a feeding. But I have so many mama friends that I have been able to turn to for help and I thank all of you! And especially my own MOM! I love you!

Update!

I can't believe my little precious boy is 9 days old! he is so fun, so sweet, so cuddly and easy going. i am sure he gets annoyed with all my kisses!! he has brought so much joy into our lives. i have been so blessed to have this little sweet pea! i love being his mama. i can't get enough of his little face and his precious smile. he is such a good little eater and loves when daddy comes home to play with him. i love watching him grow. he is such a big boy already!!

my mom left Monday....it was a sad day for me. i didn't think i could manage without her. but everyday we get a little done and things get much more easy. i love you mom and hope i can be the mom you are to my kids. YOU SERIOUSLY ARE THE BEST!!

this is how we get things done!

I am in love....

He is such an Angel. Heavenly Father has blessed

us so much!! He is so Precious!

We Love you!

2 Days over DUE!

This is my first pregnancy as you all know.....and to go over your the date your doctor gave you is the WORST! It's not that i hate being pregnant....I just want my precious little boy here!! I have been told many times this week that i look HUGE and have had people that live around me "when is that baby coming out", "you look like your going to pop", "oh you poor thing", "your having a boy, I can tell". It has all been fun...however I am ready to here other things like...."oh your little one is so cute", and "look what a precious baby". ya know stuff like that.
So for all of you that read my blog and check in on me.....I love you all and will definitely let you know when he arrives. Which will be for sure sometime Monday night to Tuesday morning. That's my when my doctor wants to induce me. Which I am okay with now....but really wanted him to come out on his own.
I guess we do still have a day and a half so.....maybe??
Thank you for all your texts and phone calls and emails! I love them all! I feel so blessed and loved to have you all in my life!
xoxo

We will soon be three!

I was in the bathroom last night getting ready for bed.....i looked in the mirror and thought.....my life is going to change and i am ready to be a mom! the hub and i have been married for 5 1/2 years. gone through nursing school and then through bachelor's school and now in the 2 semester of a masters program. we have gone on vacations...we made it on a cruise! we have had our happy times and our not so happy times.

we feel that we are ready to be parents! we want to take on the challenges that come with being parents. we just want those little rascals running around our house!

we are so anxious for little Dean's arrival. i think to myself with just 4 days away from my due date...am i ready? do i have everything? am i prepared enough? am i going to be a good mom?

i read blogs of new mothers and long for the feelings they have towards their newborns. i get really happy and excited to have a little buddy with me all day long.

so little Dean....hope you make an appearance this week! your daddy and i are waiting to meet you! maybe your just waiting for grandma to be here....and that's okay too!

xoxo

Twice this week....and a pregnancy update!

My friend Katie had the best bread recipe on her blog. i thought i would try it! And i did....twice! it is the easiest recipe and the tastiest bread! we love it! thanks Katie for sharing with us!

this week i went to the doctor. it was my 38 week appointment. he checked to see if i was dilated. No such luck! I am 50% effaced and little Dean's head is engaged!!! {which i am guessing is a good thing?????} i have dropped 3cm and have not gained anymore weight, which he said were both good things also!! Yeah!!

we are really excited to meet our precious boy!

no contractions as of late, i am ready to take them on though. i am just excited to meet him. i am sure as i have the contractions i will be thinking differently. ha ha

i have been jogging, more than walking.{hopefully it is doing something} i have tried Castor oil....which i do not recommend! i have another appointment on Wednesday....hopefully things will have changed. wish me luck!

have a great weekend and fabulous labor day!

i know we will!

xoxo

Boston and NY in one weekend??

YEP! call us crazy, but ya we did. on Saturday we drove 1 1/2 hours to Boston and did some site seeing.We took the trolley and toured the freedom trail. Saw the ocean, ate some Italian food and went to Mike's Pastry's. YUM!

Monday we got up early and took the train to the SMOKEY city! we dominated that CITY. we rode the subway, and the ferry. walked down 5Th Ave. We made the trek out to Central Park and of course ate at the Shake Shack!

and i thought that would help with getting my little guy out...... No such luck!
{i guess i will have a better idea when i go to the doctor today}

We had Chris's parents in town for the week and had so much fun hanging out with them!
we packed in a lot in 5 days and can't wait to see them again in 7 weeks!
