Since I’d say our grass is pretty darn green :-) I love, love, love afternoons like we had today!! Jamie, Jay and I took a stroll on Park Ave and ended up letting Jay stretch his legs in the grass before heading home. Jay loved it! There were so many new things to look at, feel and explore- it’s a good thing that I tote my camera everywhere with me these days; I would have hated to miss getting this.
Hope your Saturday afternoon was as wonderful as ours…
we still have three furry children that live in our house, they just don’t get as much face time on the blog as they used to. Doesn’t mean that we don’t love them as much as we did but we do take fewer pictures of them now.
Just so they don’t feel too neglected here are a few of them lately…
This year for my birthday I asked Jamie to take the day off. All I wanted this year was to spend the day with my guys and not have to plan a thing. Jamie surprised me by taking both Thursday and Friday off which allowed us to have a long weekend and it was wonderful!! I enjoyed some great time with extended family, we enjoyed some time together just the three of us and Jamie and I were even able to spend time together just the two of us! It was a wonderful birthday weekend and a wonderful start to what I can only imagine will be a great year!
Thanks to everyone who celebrated with me, I love you all!
Daily, I am reminded of how lucky I am to have Jamie in my life and how wonderful a father he is to Jay. Here are a few sweet moments that I haven’t been able to post yet- I love my boys so much!!
We had a wonderful weekend spent in the company of good friends along with some time to sit back and enjoy some time together. We have been so busy lately that yesterday was nothing short of blissful! Jamie, Jay and I just hung out and it was great!!
The three of us probably spent close to an hour lounging, tickling and laughing in the bed. I LOVED every minute of it!! So glad I had my camera with me…
Love, love, love these next few of Jamie and Jay!!
Jamie,
Thanks for the best four years of my life! Here’s to many, many more.
I love you,
Kristen
from our weekend…
I didn’t get to take too many pictures this weekend when Jay was being baptized but I did pull out my camera and grabbed a few while Mimi, Pepere and Daddy were dressing him in the family gown. I am so glad that I did because I think that this may be one of my favorites from the day. I will post more from this wonderful day soon!
Last Tuesday night (06-29) Jamie and I decided to try giving Jay rice cereal. At our last Doctor’s visit the Doctor recommended trying it sometime after he turned 5 moths old so he could get used to eating and having food put in his mouth. Up until this point he has been exclusively breast fed via the bottle or the milk truck (Daddy’s really sweet nickname for me) so I wasn’t sure how he would take to it but he did fabulously! The first couple of bites came straight back out but as soon as he got the hang of it he was putting it down the hatch rather quickly, all the while giggling and laughing. I may have to take this back later but I think that he has inherited our taste buds and isn’t going to be that picky of an eater. I know for sure that he has already inherited his Daddy’s appetite…
we all scream for Yogurt!! Yogurt just doesn’t have the same ring to it that Ice Cream does; however, it was yummy just the same…
Yesterday, Jamie and I took Jay and Piper over to Baldwin Park, grabbed some frozen yogurt and walked around the lake a little bit. They have just opened up one of those “you top it” yogurt places in near the Publix in Baldwin Park and I wanted to try it out (I really just needed an excuse to have soft serve frozen yogurt). It was a very nice treat on such a hot day and a wonderful end to our three day weekend, I am sure it will be something that we don’t do just once…
Jamie, Jay and I had a wonderful 4th of July. We spent our day sleeping-in a little (not because Jay slept longer- he was up at 5 and again at 7, so we all crawled in for his first nap of the day), we went for a walk with the two dogs after getting up, it was hot but enjoyable with a stop at Grandpa and Grandma’s house and we finished the day with a cook-out at our place. Jamie grilled burgers and dogs and we had corn, watermelon and crust-less cheesecake for dessert with peaches and blueberries-yum!!
We are headed to bed now to get some shut eye with hopes that the dogs and Jay can sleep through all of the fireworks, maybe we’ll enjoy those with Jay next year… Goodnight and happy 4th!
By the way… Jay was wearing a super cute “first 4th of July” outfit; however, he decided to spring a leak on it before we could get any pictures of him in it. Maybe I will grab some of him in it tomorrow, just to show that it was worn.
