This Week...oh what fun!

Garrett is really growing :( I am a little sad because he officially started wearing 3-6 month clothes this week. They look so big when I get them off the hanger, but they fit perfectly. Just another reminder that they grow up waaaay too fast!!! I think he also officially has his first cold this week. He sounds pitiful at night when he sleeps, but the doctor told me to just prop his head up and it would clear up on its own since he doesn't have a fever. I just hate hearing him have such trouble breathing. Anyway, he is happy during the day, though, so I guess that's all that matters.



I thought this was really cute. You can kind of see the top of Jon's head. He was talking to him and you can just see by his expression how interested he was in what his Daddy was saying. He is really becoming very observant and even seems to be wanting to watch TV this week...which I am not sure is a good thing...


Also, again, Jon enjoying putting his hat on Garrett. It does make for an adorable picture, though.



This was Garrett when I sat him on our bed the other day to get some stuff done in there before we had to leave. He just looked so funny. He was sitting up so straight and had his arm propped up on the pillow just like he was lounging around. So cute!!



This was just a new outfit that I thought looked really cute on him. I have decided that he looks really good in blues and browns. This is a little polo outfit and is so soft and comfortable.



And I absolutely love this!! This was right before his bath in his little bath robe. It is so adorable!! He is really loving his baths lately. I think we are about to have to start putting his tub in the big bathtub because he has learned how to splash and is making a real mess in the kitchen everytime :0


And last but not least ( I hope everyone can view this) a little video clip of Garrett playing. He has really started talking and kind of squealing in delight. This is him on his activity mat a few weeks ago. He has gotten even better at hitting the little aminals hanging down. He has even started trying to kind of roll to one side when I place him on his stomach on here..

My first Pool Party!

Garrett got to go to his first ever Pool Party!! He was a good sport. We got in the pool for a minute. He was sporting his cool green shorts. We swam around for a minute until his lips started to chatter and I decided it might be a little too cool for him (water was 85 degrees). He seemed to like it, though. We'll just have to wait until summer when it is a little warmer. It was his cousin Mallory's 3rd birthday and she seemed to have a really good time. She had lots of friends and family there.

Me looking ever so cute in my green shorts!!

2 Month Checkup!!

Well, doesn't time fly!! I took Garrett yesterday for his 2 month checkup (even though he isn't officially 2 months until the 11th). Wow, how he has grown. He is now officially 11.12 lbs and is 22-1/2" long. They said that he was in the 50 percentile on both, which the doctor said is right where they want him. So, I guess we are doing good!! I wanted to share lots of cute pictures that I have taken this week, so I hope you enjoy and have a great rest of the week!
Jon loves to make him look funny, so this is Garrett of course with Daddy's hat on :)
What a face!!

I really love this picture. They are so cute together and Garrett has his hand on Jon's chin, kind of like...look at the camera Daddy!


Here's allt he boys of course. it wouldn't be complete without Charlie!


This week Garrett is starting to enjoy playing in his crib. I take this stuffed animal and rub it across his face and he just loves it!!

Snoozing and Our First Snow!!

After we got back from Nashville, Garrett had to catch back up on his beauty sleep. As you can see below, first he has to get relaxed on the comfort of his couch :)


Then it's snooze time. Notice my very cute pajamas!! Another pair that Nana got at Old Navy. These are absolutely adorable and they make him look so grown up with the cuffs at the hands and feet. We love them!!


This is me after my beauty rest....ready to go!!

So as everyone knows, we got a lot of snow Thursday and Friday. We have about 4" and it is really pretty!! I know that he is very small and couldn't really play, but I wanted to get a few pictures of him with the snow so that he would know all about his first snow!! We only had him outside for a few minutes and we had him in his very warm winter coat that Nana Chaffin got for him :)
He's so bundled up, you can barely see his face...
We had a fun weekend and are ready for another week... This week we go back for his 2 month checkup. He will have to get a few shots, which I dread, but I am looking forward to seeing how much he has grown again and checking on starting cereal!! Should be fun!

Our Days in Nashville

Well, Garrett and I got to make our first solo trip!! We went to Nashville last Tuesday and stayed for the night with Jon's parents, Nana and Pop. We had a really good time and got to visit with a lot of new faces!! Garrett did really good and really enjoyed his time getting pampered. I don't think he had to sit by himself at all :)

Here's me and my Nana. I'm in my cute new pajamas that nana got me at Old Navy. You can't really read them here, but they say "Daddy is my Hero". Jon liked these a lot :)
Here is a closer up view....he looks pretty content.

I never seem to get any pictures with him, but they did take one for me while we were there. Here is me and my baby...he's snoozing away!
While we were in Nashville, Tuesday night, Karen, Shandra, Andrea, Anita, Gracie Mae, and Lillian all came to eat dinner with us. Then on Wendesday, we went to Longhorn's where we got to see Libby and Peggy. We really enjoyed getting to see everyone.



Here's another shot with my Nana. She always says that she could hold me all day :) I think he enjoys the extra attention.


Here's another shot of my adorable outfit. These are sooo cute. They are fleece and so soft. I really just love the overalls.
