Trip to Elkhart

We made our first trip up to Elkhart to see my family for the weekend. Here are some pictures of our weekend.

Will with his Papa on Saturday morning



Auntie Hill and Stephen spending some time with sweet Will



There was a surprise party for my Mom's cousin Deb on Saturday night. Will was able to meet my Mom's side of the family!



These next pictures are of Will right after he laughed at his Daddy for the first time! It was music to our ears!

12 Weeks

Our baby boy is getting so big! This past Saturday night he laughed at his Daddy for the first time! Chad and I loved hearing that belly laugh! He also slept through the night again on Saturday night!

He enjoys playing under his jungle gym. Will has figured out how to turn on the music by hitting the toys that hang or by kicking the giraffe. 


Tummy time is getting alot better! Will pulls his head up and pushes up with his hands now!
We took our first long car ride this past weekend to Elkhart. It is usually a 3 hour drive but on the way there between feedings, wet diapers, blow-outs, and a Starbucks stop, it took over 4 hours :)


We transitioned Will on Monday night into sleeping in his big boy crib! It was a sad night when he moved into his nursery!

Will is a Mommy's boy and this picture proves it! The outfits we make our children wear! :)

We leave you with a precious picture of our sweet Will smiling! Have a great week!

9-10 Weeks

I know I have said this before, but I can't believe how fast time goes with sweet Will! We just try to be thankful for every second with him and be content at whatever stage he is at! We are starting to see more of his sweet personality. He loves to nurse, laugh, smile, coo, "try" to eat his hands then gag himself :), listen to his Daddy play the guitar, sing and look at his hands. He is weighing in at 14 lbs 3 oz! He is now in a size 2 diaper! I tried to continue to use the 1-2 diapers we had and stretch it out, but I learned very quick after 3 times of poop leaking out on his clothes it just wasn't going to work! We have retired a lot of his 3 month clothes already and are pretty much in 3-6 month clothes.Enjoy some pictures of him from the past few weeks!

This is a great Saturday picture of my two favorite men!
We are trying to work on Will taking a pacifier. He will take the pacifier from his Daddy pretty well, just not from his Mommy!
Will grabbed his first toy last week!
He likes to try to fit his fists in his mouth, sometimes he even tries to get both in his mouth!


We love this smiling boy so much!
Auntie Natalie, Uncle Jeff and Reese came to visit us this week when they were on spring break. We had a great time with all of them. Reese got to go to the Children's Museum and she loved it!




I love this picture of his chunky thighs!
