Wilson and his friend.

Wilson loves his turtle!! It's so cute watching him grab it and try to figure out how he can eat it.

I am feeling a little under the weather. I wasn't sure if it was allergies or a cold but yesterday I was in horrible shape. I think it is a combination of allergies, less sleep than I am used to (my normal average was 9-10 hours I now get 7 if I'm lucky 8) and a slight cold.

Luckily I have an awesome husband and wonderful in laws who watched Wilson longer than they normally would've. I feel a lot better today but I may need to watch it. Try to eat a little better and try to get to bed earlier.

Luckily Wilson isn't sick or at least not yet anyways.

Wilson's First Game.

Unfortunately the Colts lost to the Texans for their first game. Wilson was a bit fussy that day and it must've been because of this! Haha

How cute is he with his matching Dallas Clark Jersey Onesie though? Love my little man!

4 months checkup.

Yesterday morning we got to take Wilson to his pediatrician. He isn't quite 4 months yet but that's when the appointment was scheduled for.

Overall the visit went great! Wilson is doing great. He's now 14 pounds and 25 inches long. He has slowed down a little on the growth chart but it was a big jump from his 1 month to 2 month appointment, I think from all the eating and growth spurts.

He had to get 3 vaccines, 1 oral which he sucked down and 2 in each leg. Last time he had to get 2 in each leg and really didn't do too bad.

This time was even better. He hardly noticed the first one until it was almost over and when he got stuck in the second leg he cried for less than a minute.

It's always so sad hearing your baby cry but he did so great and was over it super fast.

On a side note. I had changed his diaper right before we left and thought well it's only an hour long visit or less i'm sure I shouldn't need to grab one. My inner mommy voice was telling me maybe I should bring ONE just in case but I ended up ignoring it and off to the drs we went.

Well wouldn't you know but in that whole hour he was peeing like crazy in it! OOPS! Mommy lesson number 1: Always have a diaper on you!

Looks like I failed that one. Thank god he at least didn't go poop in it! Normally I'm not too worried about the pooping. He normally only does that when he eats or right after he eats.

This weekend looks to be a busy one with Andy's brother and sister and our niece coming in for the week! We cant wait to get Wilson and Amelia together and see how they interact with each other.

It will be the first time all of us actually get to see our sweet little niece in person so we are very excited and happy!

I want this.

OMG OMG OMG I want this shirt.. not only for the double rainbow reference but also for the fact that it has 2 of my favorite things. Number 1 being Hello Kitty of course and Number 2 for the fact that it's about cupcakes!?! Not only would I be super cute I would also be super cute and sweet!

Also if you don't get the double cupcake reference check out this video.





This guy is truly ridiculous. I get that a rainbow is cool but seriously.. he literally sounds like he is crying towards the end. Anyways. I need that shirt.

Oh Wilson!

Wilson is just the cutest! We love making him laugh and playing and talking with him. He is getting so big and on the 15th we will find out how big exactly he has gotten!

A great investment!

So I don't know about you, but as a kid it is mandatory to have boardgames in your house. One of the most standard ones is Monopoly. There are tons of different types of monopoly now even a hello kitty one!
But lets be honest. Monopoly is kind of boring. We'd play for an hour and finally get so bored that we would just count the money and see who had the most and say that person was the winner.
My family never played it that often so I've still never really liked it.

Our good friends Aaron and Lychell brought over a new twist on monopoly called Monopoly Deal.
This is a card game and at first I was skeptical. I thought well it's still monopoly so I'm probably not going to like it. Little did I know though!

So I wanted to blog about them in case anyone is a fan of card games!

So there are 3 types of cards in the deck:
Money cards
Property Cards
Action cards

here is what the description says: Collect 3 complete property sets but beware of the Debt Collectors, Forced Deals and Deal Breakers.

Seems easy enough trying to collect 3 properties but of course it's not! It's random what you get dealt and from there you have to worry about other people stealing your property or bankrupting you.

There are different action cards that can either help or hurt you, depending on whose hands they are in. It involves a little stragety and a little luck.
We played a 4 person game and it normally takes maybe 15 minutes but there was one game where we hadn't played very long and Andy won really fast.

What I like about this game is of course every game is different depending on what hand you get and what you end up drawing.


I would love to talk more about it but trust me when I say if you are a fan of card games you will definitely like this game!

3 months!

On friday the 20th, Wilson turned officially 3 months old!

I can't believe he's already 1/4 of a year old! He already looks so much bigger and longer and well cuter of course!


As far as official measurements go we won't know for a while since his next appointment isn't until September for his 4 month check up. I am tempted to call and ask if I could come in and get him weighed and measured anyways though. It would be really quick so I don't know why they would say no.

Well on friday, Wilson had another milestone in which we heard him laugh for the first time! I was getting ready for work and andy was holding him and started giving him kisses on his cheeks.

We could tell he liked it, and I was still getting stuff together when Andy exclaimed "He's laughing! Baby, he's laughing!"

I grabbed the camera and we watched him smile and coo and laugh a little! He still learning it and I'm sure it will be a little longer before its a full on belly laugh but the fact that we could actually hear a chuckle and know that we were doing something that was making him that happy, well it was just amazing.

Another wonderful moment in our lives since Wilson entered it. Andy and I are constantly in awe of our little man and so thankful to have such a healthy perfect little boy.
