A few new photos

Not much to blog about as of late. Husband and some friends did the Muddy Buddy last weekend. For those loyal readers who recognize the name, yes, this was the event last year that I almost died doing with the SIL and will hopefully never have to do again. See pic below of Husband covered with mud about to finish the race.

My little Guido...he looks like he needs some gold chains or something with this outfit.

Husband decided to hook all the little man's toys to his shirt for "easy access"...father of the year material.
Not sure what was being done in this pic but it's what Husband sent me.
I was bored with the boy after work one day and took this pic...love the look on his face.

Snooping around

So I was snooping around on other blogs comparing the little man's weight to other babies around his age and I realized that my baby is a HOSS! Perfect example is Ebes baby P who was 2 months and 2 weeks and weighed 12 lbs, 6 oz. Husband and I weigh him every Sunday and this last Sunday he weighed in at a whopping 13 lbs, 12 oz. YIKES...that's a full pound and 6 oz more and they were the same birth weight!! Another friend has little T who just isn't that interested in eating so I think my wee man has already passed him up even though T is 5 weeks older. We're still getting up around 3:00 every morning which is hard on me since I now get up at5:00 so I'm going to do some research to see what we can't do to get the little guy sleeping through the nights. I know he can do it b/c he used to sleep through once or twice a week but I think we've had a slight relapse or something b/c it's now a constant thing. Any suggestions??

Dragging today

My sweet little man decided that last night he wanted to wake up at 2:15, 4:30, 5:00, 6:15, etc. so I am DRAGGING ass this morning. I am seriously contemplating taking a nap in my car during lunch but that means I have to move my car from my "princess parking"spot to somewhere a little less noticeable (like the 5th floor of the parking garage). Hopefully the coffee will start kicking in at any moment.
On another topic, I'm almost done reading The Lost Symbol by Dan Brown...highly recommend this book to anyone who's a Dan Brown fan. I'm not sure I'll know what to do with myself once I'm done reading it (or what I'll do while pumping)....that's one thing I hate about reading. I get so caught up in the story that I am sad when it's done and I have nothing else to read about.

First day back

I am proud to report that I made it through my first day back at work after a lengthy 11 weeks off. Husband and I worked it out where he drops off the little man and I get to pick him up but I actually think I get the good end of the deal b/c I'm not sure I would have been able to drop off my sweet little guy yesterday. Husband even called to say it was a sad day after he dropped him off at the daycare. Luckily, I think he still remembered me and started smiling when I went to get him. A big THANKS to my parents (AKA. Meals on Wheels) who dropped off a tasty casserole and apple cobbler last night! The second day at work has been a little easier as I feel more like myself and not as out of sorts as I did yesterday. Still hooking myself up to the milkers which has been interesting to do at work...closet converted to a milking room complete with paper taped on the window. NICE! I had Husband take a pic of the little man which I'll post later today of his first day at "school". The main thing that the daycare lady said was "He eats a lot". Haha...my little chunk.

New duds

A friend of ours recently went to Vegas and picked up a few onesies for us....the problem is that the funniest one was a little too small for the Little (big) man so we had to do some creative cutting to make it into a belly shirt. This one says "I drink until I pass out" and G also got us "Mother Sucker" (which the Little man promptly pooped in) and "Meet me @ da crib...it's going down".

We also went to the Dallas Arboretum with my mom on Wednesday since it was my last week at home before going back to work. Here's a pic of us in the pumpkin house.
