1st Crawfish Boil

On Saturday, a group of us went over to the Steens to enjoy some crawfish. I must say that they were fantastic! I had not had any crawfish in well over a year and partaking in a crawfish boil was a long time coming! We snapped a few pics throughout the day to capture Mitchell's 1st crawfish boil. As you can see, Clay and I barely had to do anything with him throughout the afternoon and that night. As usual, the boys and girls segregated from each other as the afternoon turned into evening. Us girls aren't quite sure how to compete with Playstation 3?!?

Germs!

Well, we haven't been in daycare but a week and have already caught a cold!! Mitchell is having a hard time breathing comfortably at night when we put him down to sleep. So, I took him to the doctor yesterday. The only thing I got out of the doctor's visit was that he now weighs 14.4 lbs! The doctor told me that I was going to have to weather through it since he did not have an ear infection, sore throat or fever. I guess I should not blame it on daycare--especially since the weather has been so fickle here lately....

Thanks Aunt Harriet!!

I should have posted this thank you earlier this week but have been so busy with work that I have not had a chance. We want to thank Aunt Harriet (and Uncle David with his getchy finger) for taking care of Mitchell the first two weeks that I went back to work. They definitely made my transition back a very smooth one! I know that since then, Mitchell has missed seeing you two & Josh every day. Thanks again for everything!!

3 Months & Daycare!!!!

Boy, how time flies! I cannot believe that my little munchkin is 3 months old! Mitchell is definitely becoming a little man. He and I have all kinds of conversations everyday after we get home from work & daycare! His first two days at daycare have been good. They say that he has been a little fussy but nothing out of the ordinary with him being the new little one in the room. He has definitely been worn out when I pick him up. I think it's because he is staying so busy checking out all the cute little girls in his room! I haven't seen all of the babies in his class yet-but, I think that there is only one other little boy. So, the girls outnumber the boys 2:1!!

Back to work....

Well, I have officially been back at work for almost 2 weeks. I must say that I have enjoyed the adult interaction! However, I do miss my little munchkin terribly during the day. I am so afraid that I am going to miss out on something he does for the first time now that I am not with him 24/7! Mitchell has been staying with Aunt Harriet these past two weeks and will start daycare on Monday. I have enjoyed the idea of slowly sliding back into things by letting Mitchell stay with family for a couple of weeks before dropping him off at daycare. I will definitely post next week to let you know how the first day of daycare goes for both Mitchell & Mommy!

2 Months Old!!

Sorry that I am a little late in posting Mitchell's 2 month birthday. Things have been a little hectic. Our little chunk weighed in at his 2 month check up at 12.11 lbs. Luckily, he had also grown 2 inches and you can't really tell that he weighs that much!! He is growing up so fast! I have attached pics from his b'day. Clay and I are so blessed to have him in our lives and love him dearly. Happy Belated Birthday Punkin!

DeeDee & Cousin Ava

I'm a little late in posting these pics but I wanted to share them with everyone. DeeDee and cousins Ava and Allison came to visit about a week and a half ago. Cousin Ava was born about 2 weeks ahead of Mitchell and Mitchell has already outgrown her! We really enjoyed our visit and are looking forward to seeing them again real soon.
