Partners in Crime

These are Jace's best friends, Madi & Gabriel . As you can see below Madi is QUITE fond of Jace. So much so that she is absolutely APPAULED that Gabriel would even think about putting his hand on her knee! Does her face not just say "this is MY man!" I swear, everytime I look at this picture I just crack up. These three are going to give their mommies a run for our money. Good thing us mamas are such good friends. We will need to stick together and be a united front! A fourth member of this little team is still baking in his mommy's belly, but we expect him ANY DAY NOW!!

These two little boys could not look more like their daddy's!! This is the FIRST picture that Jeremy has actually agreed that Jace looks JUST like him. This is Jace and Gabriel's "cool guy" pose.

Rollin Rollin Rollin...

Jace rolled over for the first time on Tuesday! He was doing tummy time and I could see him shifting his weight like he was up to something. The next thing I know he's flipped over! It is too cute. The first couple times caught him a little off guard, but now he thinks it is the funniest thing ever! I can't believe how fast this little guy is growing up. Before we know it he will be crawling!

Happy Easter!

This year we had the pleasure of having everyone to our house for Easter. We had an Easter egg hunt, yummy food, and tons of fun playing Wii (our new favorite obsession.) It was so nice to have everyone together for Jace's first Easter! He even got his very first Easter baskets! Too much fun!

Surprise!

Well, I must say I am very proud of myself. I was actually able to keep a secret so that my hubby could be surprised. I have the hardest time keeping anything from him, but this covert operation was a success. His parents were able to sneak over for a visit this weekend and we had a great time. Jeremy introduced his mom to Wii bowling, Jace got some quality time with grandma and grandpa, and we all were able to visit and catch up. It was a short visit, but we were glad to have them.

GO RAMS!

Ok, I realize it isnt footbal season anymore, but Jace JUST NOW started fitting into his cute Rams outfit that Uncle Chris bought him. We got to show it off yestereday at Melissa's sports themed baby shower. All three of us went in our Rams gear! Too fun!

Sir Naps A Lot


Is there anything sweeter in this whole wide world?? I think not!

I am happy to say that Jace is pretty much on a schedule these days. And he did it all on his own! He gets up at the same time every morning (within 15 minutes) and takes several naps all at the same times during the day. It is fabulous!! I pray that it will always be this way, but deep down I know that it probably won't. Oh well, I am enjoying it while it lasts!

12 Week check up!

Jace had his 12 week check up today. He is officially 12 1/2 pounds (my previous report that he was this weight a few weeks ago was wrong. My highly scientific method of weighing myself and then myself holding him apparently is not very accurate. woops!) and a whopping 24 1/4 inches long. The Dr. says he is definately in a stretching phase. He has a clean bill of health and demonstraed his healthy lungs by screaming at the Dr. the entire visit.

We also got to go hang out with Jace's Great Great Auntie Virginia today! He had a blast. He absolutely loves his Auntie Ginna! She had a great time listening to Jace's stories and watching him laugh and smile. Silly mommy forgot her camera so no pics of today's adventures, but I promise to do better tommorow.

SAHM I AM

It's official...as of today I am a 100% Stay At Home Mommy!!!!! I let my work know today that I would not be coming back when my maternity leave is up. I just can't pull myself away from this little guy of mine! Can you blame me? I am sad to be leaving all of the fantastic people that I work with, but am truly excited to be doing this! I am looking forward to this time with him and am feeling so blessed that I will get to be there with him every step as he grows!

Concentration

Ok, I realize that on some level this is probably just wrong, but I cannot keep these pictures to myself. They absolutely crack me up! Jace has started to really focus on things when he looks at them. I mean REALLY focus. He stares so intently on an object that after a second his eyes cross. I imagine when they cross it changes how the object looks because as soon as they cross he opens his eyes as wide as he possibly can. It is absolutely comical!

Big Boy Chair

Jace is finally feeling better! Seems like that little cold sure wanted to stick around! This is a picture of Jace in his big boy chair. I have been dying to start using this fabulous seat for a while I must admit. It is made to start being used at 3 months, but you know our little Bean is so advanced, hehe. Actually, he has great head control and that is what they look for before you can use it, so I thought I would try it out today. He REALLY loved it....for like 2 minutes! Oh well, it was fun while it lasted.
