14 weeks and loving life. AJ is really starting to make noises and interact with people. He is smiling ALOT and John and I are having a blast with him. He is the happiest in the mornings. We will bring him over to our bed around 6 or 7 am and he will lay there and laugh the morning away. He is a super good baby :)


One of AJ's many sleepovers at my parents. He had just woken up from napping with my dad. (13 weeks)




12 weeks: AJ loves Grandma's photo corner! It seems everytime we head to Lebanon, we come home with a full camera chip. The two of them just have the best time. We have been so greatful that my grandparents have been able to watch him while I get a hair cut, run to meetings at work, etc. Ali and my grandma have taken AJ on carriage rides through the neighborhood, played on the activity gym, etc. I must say, my grandmas is also an AWESOME garage sale shopper! She has picked up so many little things along the way for super cheap! I know now where I get my rush for bargains!




AJ and Mia: My parents recently moved to North Carolina this past Saturday. Things will definitely be changing and AJ is trying to suck up all the grandparent time he can.


10 weeks! Happy as a clam while I pack lunches and do dishes in the morning.


My little Houdini! After I found AJ this morning, I knew it was time to get rid of the positioner! I put him the positioner vertically and found him in this position the following morning. He didn't fuss or anything; just a little wimpering. I love it! He's such a mover and shaker... does this have any indication of how he will be at 2 years old? (9 weeks)


8 weeks: John's grandmother passed away and family gathered for a ceremony to celebrate her life.




AJ's first shower. I must say, it was very slippery, but we did just great. Dad was there to help pass him off to afterwards and he did wonderfully! He loves the water and has no problem with the shower water hitting him in the face. He is so content and just looks around the whole time. I don't think he really wanted to get out. Ever since, we have continued to get showers and well as bathes. He is much more calm and enjoys the water. I'm so glad, especially knowing that when he gets older, John will have him dunked in the pool in no time. He'll be quite the little fish come summer time.


This is one of my favorite pictures. I have it in my badge at work and my patients comment on it all the time. He is such a happy baby and so laid back.
