One last post of the Bean

Sorry, I am a big slacker so I am posting all of these in one day. I just had to add a few more pictures of my darling boy!

Easter and a couple of big milestones!

We had a wonderful Easter! We were able to spend time with most of our family members and it was really nice to see everyone. We started the day by doing breakfast at my mom's. Then going for lunch at my dad's. We then had dinner with Dominic's family. Everyone really spoiled Sawyer. Who knew that a 7 week old could score so much loot! Thank you everyone for all the great gifts from the Easter Bunny!

On another note Sawyer had his two month check up and the doctor is really happy with his progress. He is really plumping up and he has found his hands, can smile a gorgeous smile, he is cooing and trying to talk, and started rolling over last Wednesday. Boy are we in trouble! God, I love this boy so much!

Here are his stats....

weight 13 lbs - 81%

height 23.5 in - 73%

head 40.5 cm - 64%

He also had his shots at this visit, and I have to say that I cried as hard if not harder than he did. Poor baby!! He had a really ruff night and ran a little bit of a temp. that evening and the next day. He seems to be in better spirits today and we are hoping to spend some time outside.

Happy Birthday Joshy!

I love you and miss you so much! I hope that you are having a great birthday!

Introducing Miss Sophie Lee

I am so proud to show off my beautiful new niece! Miss Sophie Lee was born on 4/6/09 at 5:50 am. She weighed in at 8lbs. 11 oz. and was 20.5 inches long. She came into this world with a head full of downy blond hair. She is so incredibly beautiful! I just want to snuggle and kiss her to death!

I want to tell Brandon and Ashley how much I love them and how proud of them I am. I especially want to tell Ashley what a wonderful job she did! You guys are already doing such a good job as parents! I can't wait for both our little ones to play together! We love you so much! What a gorgeous girl you have created!

I am so lucky!!

I have been blessed in my life with many wonderful things. One of which is my best friend Megan. I didn't know when I met her that she would be with me for the rest of my life through both the thick and the thin, good and the bad, rich and the poor. God must have been looking out for me, knowing that I would need someone like her in my life.

Megan's first reaction when I told her I was pregnant was to scream and cry almost simultaneously. Her second reaction was to start planning a trip to come out and meet my baby. Can I say how blessed I am! I know that being a mother of four with a husband in the military means that she has a busy life, and I appreciate that her family was willing to part with her for five days.

We had the best time while she was here! I always enjoy any time that I get to spend with her! I don't get to see her often but I am always amazed that we can go months or even years without seeing each other but when we talk on the phone or see each other it seems like only yesterday! She is truly the sister of my heart!

Matt and kids - Thanks for sharing your wonderful wife and mom, it means the world to me!

Megan - I can't thank you enough for coming out and taking time away from your family and work to spend time with us! Sawyer, Dominic and I were so sad to see you go! I love you and I am so grateful to have you in my life!
