New Favorite Things!

Toes!

Chewing on everything!

Texas Fun!

Ok so i was horrible at taking pictures this visit to texas, horrible but here are a few and there are more to come and an update on Dex!

So we went to the Dallas Arboretum. it was so fun to see all the spring flowers and the weather was perfect. We got off to a good start, right when we walked in dex had a massive explosion. So we stripped him down naked in the grass and got him all cleaned up and then where on our way.

I just love these kids, they are the best!

They had 2 different ideas on which way to go.

Ya dont worry dexter's head is bigger then maddison's, its cool. And he is half her size.

So dex discovered his toes while we were there.

Dexter talks, alot!

Dex's new favorite toy! to bad it is at grandmas house!

Park fun

Great friends~ Guys we had so much fun! Way toooo much fun!

Oh my gosh it was so fun to watch Maddison and James with Dex! He thought they were hilarious! And they played so great together! He had so much fun just watching them run around! They always calls him "Baby dex" so cute.

dex is super happy in the morning so everyone came in to play.

I am not sure if grandma will ever babysit again! She had all the grand kids for the first day of market and dex was being difficult. It was quite the adventure for everyone involved! Thanks again mom and dad!

So this was at the airport on my way home and yes i look tired! After a week without matt and market, and the fun of being home, i was so so tired. Some nice man thought i looked really tired to and when i was at the gate he walked up to me and said "since you are traveling with you baby, alone, would you like my first class ticket? it will give you a little extra room?" i just looked at him and said "Are you serious? i think i am going to cry" It was so nice. I can not believe he would do that. i just kept saying, thank you thank you and matt even went up to him at baggage claim and told him thanks again. i just cant believe his generosity! I would never give up a first class ticket, not even to a desperately tired looking woman and her baby. Lets all take a lesson.

Thank you Generous stranger, that made my day!

Mom and Dad, Thank you so much for everything! We had so much fun! dont forget we beat you in pinocle twice! We cant thank you enough, we really needed a break from life! you guys are great!

Side Note!

So I was thinking today: As restless as I get and bored sometimes, and annoyed... I am SO glad that I am able to be a stay at home mom. I never thought I would say it.

Plus I am so grateful for my stay at home mom!

Wow 3 months already!

Dexter is the best baby! He is so funny and beginning to do the funniest things! He is such a layed back kid. And looks just like Matt!

He is such a tank! He weighs 16 pounds and gains about 4 oz a week. We know that when bc he went to the doctor twice in one week. Dex is a pro at eating! He only takes about 5-10 min to eat, which I love cause lets face it, we have things to do. Matt and I tried a little rice cereal last week but Dex was not interested! but it was also mixed with his bacteria which he doesn't enjoy to much either so we will try again later.

Church on sunday.

Ok, family member who said i would NEVER use a kitchen aid, you know who you are (Mom, Chris and Kim) here is experience number one when i needed one! We made pumpkin cinnamon rolls that were delish. I felt like i was on a cooking show because i was explaining every step to dex, clearly he was interested.

Matt is such a great dad! Anything to get a laugh!

Nightly routine.

Teething! He is chewing chewing on everything including fingers and its pretty hard! And drooling, oh so much spit!

So because of his neck issues he has to be constantly worked out. So tummy time, Baby bjorn and bumbo is our life now. He is a champ at it all. He loves the bouncer but is not quite able to be in it by himself yet.

Dex likes tummy time so much better, these days! Now that he is constantly on a neck work out he is so strong! He is getting so close to rolling over! When i asked the doc when he should be rolling the doc said " Oh these chubby fat babies dont role over for a while."

His hair is slowly falling out finally. The dark stuff is from birth and the new stuff is supper blond!

Dex is such a great sleeper! He is so cute, he hides his eyes when ever he is tired and about to fall asleep. He wakes up smiling and talking every time, i love it! At night it varies. If he has a late evening nap he goes down at 930 - 10 and sleeps till 3ish and then wakes up at 930-10. But usually we keep him up and he goes down at 730 then wakes up at 12-1 and then is down till 5 and then gets up at 930-10. He is still only up for about an hour or hour and a half and then goes down for 2 hours. Such a fabulous sleeper!

Thanks babe!

Ok so Dexter is huge! 3 months and 16 pounds, he has doubled his birth weight! Go Dex. He is so amazing, teething, laughing, talking in his baby language and almost rolling over! He is the best little guy! We have so much fun with him and cant believe how fast he is growing.

So the other day Dex and i we chillen in the bath when Matt got home. so he came was sitting in there talking to us. Well I was leaning over to get the soap and by the time i look down i see dex's pee an inch from my face! i look up at Matt who was just dying laughing. Instead of telling me that dex was about to pee on my face, he first wanted to see if it was going to happen.

Thanks babe!

And we have a couple cute videos that i need to upload, anyone know the best way to do it?

Late Christmas!

Christmas was great! Not only bc we had a new addition but bc Dexter had his PICC line out right b4 christmas! Plus Matt is amazing and made it really special for out little family!
