Randoms

On Friday William and I got up bright and early and went with my parents to Meme's.  I did not take many pictures but it was a good trip.  As much as my sweet boy dislikes the carseat he always surprises us and does great on trips to Meme's.  Once he remembered Meme William was all smiles!  He got to eat squash while sitting on Papa and did great (should have taken more pictures).  Thankfully I brought the Johnny Jump Up with us because he is so squirmy now I do not know how I would have entertained him.

The rest of the weekend was low key.  Rudy played golf all day Saturday and I stayed at my parent's house.  I worked all day Sunday but was happy to see that Dad decided to visit.  We ordered Jim N Nicks and although William was very fussy (does not nap well with Rudy) we enjoyed dinner. 

Another piece of wonderful news:  William has a new baby cousin.  Mia Cecilia was born Thursday and weighed 6.8 lbs.  Of course I do not have pictures because they live so far away.  We are visiting next month so I will do an entire post on Mia at that time. :)

Pictures that I took at random times last week...

William likes this cups and actually took a few sips out of it. 

He is always spreading his legs, always.  In the stroller, while drinking bottles, etc.  Too cute!



5 Minute Friday

Older

Today my sweet baby boy is a day older.  He is acting older by sitting up more on his own and playing independently.

I am blessed to be older and somewhat wiser today.  I have grown up ALOT since college and wish I had made better decisions. 

My marriage is older today.  We have grown so much as a couple.  We depend on each for everything.  Rudy is basically the sole provider right now in the household and I have so much respect for him.  My husband is older and has changed since I met him.  He budgets better now and understands the importance of that.

My parents are older today.  This makes me a bit sad.  I know everyone moves on from this world I can not imagine my life without them.  Since my brother died they are my only IMMEDIATE family.  I do not know what I would do without them. 

Weekend Happenings

On Friday I got my hair cut and colored.  I love my hair but the pictures are not great; hoping to fix my hair this week and get some better pictures.  I usually CHI my hair but my stylist does not but this is walking in the door from getting hair done.  Notice the shine on my face; it is very hot out.  My skin is somewhat dry so I do not understand the shine; going to blame it on heat.



When I work at Publix Rudy is always running errands.  He does so much better with William in public alone than Mommy.  I really think he will be easier for me when he sits on his own and can sit in cart, hi chair, etc.  Rudy uses the carrier but either my torso is too short or something because William does not do well with me using it.  The point of all this is Rudy usually buys William some kind of "gift" on these errands.  This time it was sandals. 

William is sporting shoes for the first time and riding BIG BOY style in a new carseat.  (Picture from Rudy's phone).

We visit my parents almost every weekend and Rudy asked the funniest question, "When can William go upside down?"  We all laughed and said probably now but do not hang him there. :)

 

I guess I covered the flash but he (William) loved it.  By the look on Rudy's face he had a blast as well.

This is just for those big blue eyes.
