Disney trip

Rich bought Nathan an autograph book for the characters to sign at Disney since Nathan wants to wait in line to see the characters. Although it was busy at Disney we had a lot of fun and a beautiful day for us to spend there. Peter Pan was the first to sign his book. Buzz was the second one with a stamp because of his big gloves. Nathan was so excited about his book he decided to sign his name through out it.

The double stroller finally came into good use. Usually he will sit for a minute or two but this time we wore him out that he fell asleep.

Having fun at Grandma and Grandpa's House

Time with the boys is the best. I wish Rich was there on Friday night. He had a very busy week with work and was gone just about every night so we hung out at Grandma and Grandpa's house on Friday night.
Yes, Nathan is watching his movie. I had to move in front of the tv to get him to face the camera. This is payback for all the years I did not want my picture taken.
Getting into trouble. Have chair will travel and more than likely get into trouble.
Nathan loves to give Justin hugs, which will turn into pulling on the arm, poking and trying to pick him up. It is great to see how much Justin responds to Nathan with big smiles and laughs.

Valentine's Day

Unfortunately, Nathan eluded the camera on Valentine's Day. Rich and Nathan were both pretty sick so Justin and I had fun with the camera.

Hey Chicks dig me... I could not resist this smirk! It makes me want to eat him up. Justin is a such a happy baby, we are very lucky!
Showing some leg

Nathan goes bowling

We took Nathan bowling on a colder Saturday. He loved it and was very sad to leave. He was able to carry the 6lb ball and did not want help! With the bumpers up he got a spare.

Justin scoots

Justin has started scooting around. He can go up or to the side. He was at the bottom of his crib while I was working and started to hear music going on and off and loud kicking. I came into his room to find this:

Justin is 12 weeks old

Well, Justin is now 12 weeks old. He is apx. 27 inches long and just under 16 lbs, holy moly. Was he switched at birth?? If he was not a mirror of Nathan I might wonder. On the good note ( I know I will probably jinx myself) he slept through the night the past 2 nights. On the not so good note, Nathan has been up most of those 2 nights with a cough. I am back to work, this week was from home. Next week I will be back out in the field. I hope to keep up with the blog but have patience if it is not as often.

Disney during my last week off from work.

We were very lucky that Rich could take off work so we could go to Disney during the week. So we went on a Tuesday. There were still quite a few peoople but the lines were pretty short. A quick visit with buzz lightyear!
Nathan's favorite....hmmmm, a sugar cookie
Not the most clear picture but when strangers take the picture, I guess beggars can't be choosers.
Nathan's first time on the tea cups! He really liked it!!

Justin's Baptism

We had a wonderful Baptism for Justin on Sunday, January 24, 2010. Teresa and Andrew are his Godparents and we were blessed to have them to be able to fly in to be here with us. We were also glad to have Great Grandma Welz, Great Grandma Heaghney, Great Aunt Joan and Great Aunt Kathy Hill in from St. Louis. It was also great to have Great Aunt Kathy McNeary, Cousin Michelle and Steve, Cousin Jenn, Blake, Aiden and Kira and Cousin Kevin, Michael and Matthew join us. It was probably the most family we had in town at the same time in at least 2 years. Thank you all!
