New pics

Nash with his Great Grandparents on Eric's side

Hi all

Hope everyone had a wonderful Easter. We sure did. The weather was great! We spent Sat with my family and we celebrated my Moms birthday, then we spent Sunday with the Tomlinsons. It was great to see everyone that hadn't seen Nash is a while. Not much to say I just wanted to post the pics that we have of Nash.

4 Months Old!!!

on his way down...

fingers in the mouth and lots of slobber

Happy 4 month Birthday to my little boy!! Man, we love him so much and even more every day. I told Eric the other day that he isn't just a blob that lays there anymore. He is so active and interactive. It's amazing to see what he learns daily.

Here are the stats from the pedi visit

height-26 1/2 inches---90th percentile
head circumference--90th percentile
weight-18.75 lbs!! whoa--off the charts!

He is perfectly healthy with no major issues. He does have to get an xray of his hips done because Dr London wants to make sure he doesn't have hip dysplasia. She is fairly certain he doesn't but he has "asymmetrical fat rolls"-2 on one side and 3 on the other-of his legs and that is a common indication of hip dysplasia. This is just to rule it out so that if we need to we can be proactive about any issues instead of waiting until he is walking.

Here is what he is currently up to:

sleeping thru the night!! still
taking 1-2 naps throughout the day
drooling--ALOT
reaching out and grabbing things and pulling them to his mouth of course
cooing and laughing. He smiles every time we smile at him and sometimes at the dogs too.
He eats cereal twice a day with bottles in between. He loves his cereal!
He is starting to act like he wants to roll over. I bet it won't be long.
We love the morning time with him.. he is such a fun sweet baby during that time. It's his best time of the day.
His eyes are starting to change colors a bit. they are more grey/green right now

I'm sure there are so many more things, but I will leave it at that for now along with a lot of his different expressions.

Love you all

Rain Rain Go away!!

My little man "sitting" in the sunshine

My two favorite people in the world!

attempting to sit up. I think he looks like a little monkey!

yummy cereal!

I'm sure all of you feel the same, but I am grateful for, yet sick and tired of all this rain! Blah Blah!
I can't wait to get Nash outside and put his little feet in the grass and take some pictures with beautiful flowers. I've been looking high and low for a little Easter outfit for him with no luck so far. Everything I see is a little bit too fancy for me. I don't think my hubby would let him near anything that needs to be ironed before I put it on! ha. I will keep on with the search though, because it shouldn't just be little girls who get all dressed up for Easter, right?

Nash will be 4 months old next week!! wow. He goes for another check-up with the pedi soon, so I will post his current "stats" when we get them. Needless to say, he is wearing 9-12 month clothes almost exclusively now! whew.

He has been in the beginning stages of teething the past week or so. Poor baby. I feel so bad for him. Sometimes it hurts him so bad he just sticks his bottom lip out and starts crying in the middle of us playing/laughing. He seems to have his hands in him mouth All The Time! And the drool is incessant. We go through many bibs and burp cloths daily. When we had our baby showers I thought we received way too many. ha. boy was I wrong. We still have to wash a load every 2-3 days!

We recently started giving him some cereal and he loves it. He opens his mouth as soon as the spoon is in front of him. He is already getting impatient with me if I don't get it in his mouth quick enough! He has the patience of his Daddy! haha

Thats all for now!

Happy St. Patty's Day!

Nash and I just wanted to wish everyone a Happy St. Patty's Day! Hope everyone is enjoying this time of year. We are having a lazy day of just lounging around the house and playing on all our different toys.

3 months old

He is starting to notice his surrounding so much more!

Happy 3 month Birthday my sweet little man

This cracks me up! he looks like a little old man in this pic

Look at me sitting up...almost by myself!!

Wow! Nash is 3 months old! He changes before our eyes daily. I thought that maybe we would notice changes monthly or maybe even weekly, but I notice subtle little changes in him daily.

Here are a few of the things currently going on with our sweet little one

-He still is sleeping thru the night. He is such a great sleeper and hasn't really woken up during the night since he was 7 weeks old.
-He wears a size 2 diaper and size 6-9 month clothes already! whew--he is a big boy. He is so long bodied right now, his little stumpy legs need to do some catching up.
-He is such a fun baby all the time, but especially in the mornings. He wakes up and wants to play for a while before he even eats. Today he played and talked for an hour before he finally realized it had been 12+ hours since his last meal.
-He weighs around 17 lbs. Eric is obsessed with his weight and weighs him almost daily.
-He coos and smiles all the time.
-He has started giggling. A lot of the time it still scares him though, so we dont get too many giggles out of him in a row just yet.
-He still has blue eyes but I am beginning to see a little bit of green in them. Pretty crazy for two brown eyed parents.
-he drools a lot! I don't know if we are preparing for teething soon or what, but a bib is on him all the time when he is awake.
-We have finally started taking him places. Just this week he visited his first restaurant, went to Costco for the first time and made his first trip to Lowes!
-He is currently still just on formula, but we hope to start rice cereal soon. I'm sure we will have plenty of messy pictures to post when that happens.
-He reaches out and grabs toys now. It melted my heart the first time I heard him jiggle his rattle on his playmat. I was such a proud Momma. Now he does it all the time.
-He isn't interested in his swing anymore. I think it will be the first casualty up to the attic.
-Loves loves loves his duckys in the bath! He is obsessed!

I'm sure there are so many more things I could tell you. We love him so very much and cherish every moment we get.

Baseball is in full swing for ET. We are putting up an arbor this weekend. Hopefully we can enjoy many hours of fun outside this spring/summer.


Love you all,

Devi

Just another rainy Sunday

Just thought I would post some cute pics from this last week. We had a good quiet week around here. Nash went to Mims work(my mom) on Wed when Eric had practice. He did great and my Mom said he has a fan club there now! I wouldn't have thought differently. ha.

Grandma and Grandpa Tomlinson came to see us on Thursday and Friday. Nash had a fun time showing him all his new tricks.

He is so so close to laughing and it is so sweet watching him trying to figure it out. Now if we can just get it on video! that will be a task in itself.

Here are cute pics of his first ride on Daddys shoulders. He thought it was pretty cool.

Naked Nash

Laying out-he needs some shades

look at that booty! so cute and fat

He is holding his head up so well now

More naked baby

this great blue heron thought our backyard was wet enough to find some food I guess

Nash is his "big boy" pajamas. These are his first two piece pjs.

I think this is the first documented "dirty look" that he has given me! he didn't want his pic taken apparently. or he was mad about being in the carseat

this one was taken before the dirty look photo. He was still happy

Eric's back yard creation--a polar bear. look closely and you'll see it. this is a profile of him/it

We FINALLY had some sun this morning and I took advantage of it and got my little albino baby some sun time. He seems to really like it, but I think it's just because he doesn't have the diaper on!

I had a good first day back at work. I actually only worked half a shift due to the pt census dropping, but it was a good "break in" day to have and I still got to come home and snuggle with my two Valentine's for the afternoon. ET even watched a chick flick with me after Nash went to bed!

Everyone stay warm and hope that spring is just around the corner! I know at this house we can't wait!!!

P.S. for all you new bloggers/readers out there. If some of the pictures are too small to see very well, just click on them and it blows them up bigger for you!
