Weight Check.

Yesterday I had to take Milo to the Dr. to get a weight check because he was 9 lbs when he was born and was down to 8lbs 7oz when we went to the Dr last week. Well he now weighs 9lbs 7.5 oz. The kid gained a whole freaking pound in a week. I love my chunker. The Dr. said he was looking great.

I played Wii fit for the first time since about 3 weeks before I had Milo. I put on 19 lbs with him and so far have lost at least 26 lbs. I tried on a pair of pre-pregnancy jeans and they fit although I have a bit of a muffin top. My tummy is still like a bowl full of jelly but Adam was "mad" that I lost the weight so fast. He on the other hand lost 2 of his 30 lbs. (Yup he gained 30 lbs while I was pregnant.) I can't wait to start working out and dieting for real.

Happy 2 week birthday Milo!

His spiky hair

That he holds his hand just like me.

There is nothing more precious than watching your husband snuggle your child.

That she has gotten so smart. She totally played a Yo Gabba Gabba game without any help.

Words.

Eve wants Milo to talk. She is obsessed with teaching him words. She decided to teach him to say love so everytime he is awake she comes over to him and says, "LLLOOOVVVVEEE!" for like a minute straight. Then looks at me and says, "He needs to learn how to say love."

Tonight she realized he couldn't say her name either so she decided to add "EEEVVVEEE" to the rotation of words.

She is such a silly girl and I love her so much.

The big sister.

(Excuse the messy hair we had just gotten finished dancing around the house.)

Eve has been an amazing big sister so far. She loves to help out by getting me a diaper or making a bottle. She gives him kisses all the time. We have been trying really hard to give her extra attention and let her know we still love her so much. Well on Friday she spent the night at my parents (she would live there if we let her.) On Saturday we came and she asked why we brought Milo with us. I figured she was just being a goof because when I questioned her on it she skipped off to play with her toys. Well today I was complementing her on what a great big sister she is because she helped me by putting a blanket on Milo so he wouldn't get cold. She turns to me and says, "I don't want to be the big sister anymore." When I asked her why she didn't want to be a big sister and her response was that she wanted him to go back in my tummy. I think the jealousy has kicked in a little bit.

Happy Mother's Day!


My loves!

A day to celebrate!

Milo is one week old today!

I officially graduate with my Masters in Educational Technology. We decided to not go to the ceremon because it is 4 hours there, at least a 3 hour ceremony, 4hours back. Spending 11 hours out of the house where we don't really do anything is really not all that exciting. I purchased the cap and gown so I will just have Adam take pictures of me. Because really the graduation ceremony is just a chance to take pictures and I don't need to spend 11 hours getting that done.

Adam gave me the best present and woke up with Milo all last night (he only woke twice). I got 8 hours of sleep. It was amazing. I love my husband.
