Freedom and Potty

Since Xander is a walking fool now, he is completely unsatisfied with staying in the living room and playing. He walks to the baby gate door and nods his head yes. I say no and he gets mad and it’s an endless cycle until he is completely pissed and crying. I don’t give in so … [Read more…]

Kiss and Tell

April 22nd was the big day, Xander took his first steps. I got it all on video. It wasn’t a remake video either. I noticed that he was trying to stand up on his own with no assistance from a wall of table so I quickly grabbed my phone thinking “sweet I can get this … [Read more…]

Stay at home mom also known as SAHM

9/10/12 Believe it or not it’s been 4 weeks! I must say it is exactly what I expected; sitting at home watching tv, eating bonbons while Xander runs around naked. Ok so that isn’t true but I’m pretty sure there are a ton of people out there that think that way. What it is like … [Read more…]

4 month Checkup

Xander did pretty well at his 4 month appointment. To start off you go to the scale and take off all his clothes and diaper. Then pick him up so they can reset the scale and place him back; weight 15.7lbs. Then the nurse measures his length; 25in, and then the circumference of his head; … [Read more…]

3 months and life

This time last year…I was 3 weeks pregnant. I’ve been amazed everyday with Xander. He will do something I’ve never seen and I hit Steve and say look look. I was so excited when he was playing in his jungle gym (what we can the activity gym) and he grabbed his foot. He hasn’t rolled … [Read more…]

The scariest thing ever, Leaving the hospital

Don’t get me wrong I wanted out, like caged lion out but I was nervous. This is a baby a living human being not like Megabyte who was 6 weeks when we got him and after 3 days I begged Steve to take him back where he came from (which we didn’t). There was no … [Read more…]

Hospital Stay

While I’m sure it seems great to have a baby in 45 minutes, it’s a lot to happen in such a short period of time. Hormones are a bitch and releasing them all at once is something you do when you have a csection. Whereas a natural birth you have all that time for the … [Read more…]

Indescribable

I have no words nor could I ever attempt to try and describe the emotions that happen when you hear your baby cry for the first time.  Every feeling you ever had in your life just runs though you. When Xander was taken out he was PISSED. I know he was so nice and comfy … [Read more…]
