Congratulations to James and Brandi Oreschnigg, they got married on the 13th. We wish you all the happiness!!
This weekend we had a sip-n-see for Nate. A sip-n-see is a baby shower with the baby there. It is really fun because everyone gets to see the baby and love on them. It was at Aunt Jessie's house and the theme of course was blue and dinosaurs. Thank you to everyone who came and those ladies who helped give the party. It was very special and very appreciated. We got a ton of precious clothing, a quilt, and a lot of diapers!! We are so blessed by our generous friends.
Here is Nate in one of the precious new outfits he got. Granny gave him this and he looks like a little doll baby in it!! I have also never seen so many dinosaur outfits!! I am so ready for him to grow into them, but not to fast little man!!
We hung his curtains in his room, I LOVE THEM, and I put the mobile in his bed. He sleeps there every night. It helps him and me get a little bit of sleep, little being the word here. We have also been sitting in the bumbo more. Since he will not do tummy time, this is how we are working those neck muscles.
He is such the mommy's boy, he looks for me all the time and he turns toward the sound of my voice. Not saying he doesn't do this for Jon, people just say he does it more for me. He also recognizes Juliet and will calm when she talks to him. He has started cooing a little too, although you have to catch him in the right frame of mind.
Speaking of Miss Juliet, she is such the little princess. Friday morning she picked out her purple shirt, because her baby doll was wearing purple and then before I knew it she had her pink pettiskirt on!!
Everything is a bracelet to her, early last week she had a Orbitz cup label with her name on it, a case for hand sanitizer, and 6 Big Apple Adventure (VBS) silly bandz on as bracelets. She hasn't been feeling good, her ears are still bothering her and she had to have a flu shot on Friday. You can tell when she is really tired because other than being so whiny you can't stand to be around her, she plays with our ears. Not her own, when she hugs us she will play with one of our ears. If Nate cries she will run and hug him saying "I right here Nate." She has her first haircut appointment this week, I am using the lady who does my hair because it is a private place with no screaming kids or other people around. Last week during bath one night I sat on the side of the tub and made her a"bridge" to swim under my legs. She started saying "time tunnel, time tunnel", from Dinosaur train. Music started at school and they send a copy of the CD home with each of the kids. Well, she has her favorites and has no clue what they are called or what number they are on the CD. She will say I wanna hear the blankey song, which is not called the blankey song and is number 4, then she will say comin' round the mountain, you know that one, which is 25 and mommy has to sing along, then she wants to hear the yak song, which is 15. Sigh, and it changes every semester, remember she is in this class for a school year.
She was so good at the party, she really loves Cailin, (James' daughter) and Cailin is so good with her. They made crafts out of the tissue paper from the presents. How cute is that!! Kept her entertained and out of everything, and her mind off the fact that the puppies were not there.
Tonight we took advantage of the 25% trade-in discount at babies r us and got Juliet her booster seat! She picked it out so it's her fault in 5 years when she says "I don't want pink". She was very insistent that she get the pink seat.
I got their Halloween costumes in this week, Juliet is going to be Rapunzel and Nate is going to be a dinosaur.
OK, it is so past mommy's bed time, I am going to sleep. Love to all!!
