Birthday Fun

Yesterday I celebrated my 26th birthday! Another year gone by already! What made it better was that my good friend from college, Arlette and her boyfriend, got to come up! I haven't seen her in a long time. It started on Saturday night when we went out to downtown Ft. Worth for some yummy food at P.F. Changs.....then we went for some drinks then ended the night at Pete's, which always guarantees a good time!

Then on Sunday we went to get some famous Sprinkles cupcakes! I have been wanting to go for awhile now, so we went and it was definitely worth the drive over to Dallas! They are very yummy!!


It was a great weekend and I am so glad Arlette got a chance to come up and meet Lane! This was a great year....I just wish time would slow down a little!!

3 Months and Growing Fast!!

My sweet little boy is three months today!!!! He is such a happy boy... and his personality is coming through loud and clear! He will definitely let you know when he is hungry....it seems like he is starving and he just cannot wait!! He is pretty much sleeping through the night, every night, now...yea for mommy and daddy! He loves to play, be held and go for walks! I've already had to start packing away some of his clothes...which is sad...he was so little for such a short amount of time! Lane has also found his hands....they are either in his mouth now or he holds his hands in his lap..it is so cute!

Here are some more pics of little man...

I love this picture

Can you believe it's already the end of June?? Please slow down!!

One of a Kind Dad

Today Paul got to celebrate his first Father's Day. I always knew Paul would be a good dad, and ever since Lane has arrived, he has gone above and beyond! I can not imagine doing this without him. I can't wait to watch Paul and Lane's relationship develop as Lane gets older.

So here is to Paul...Happy Father's Day...I love you very much !! And to all the other daddy's out there, I hope you had a great one!

Doctor Visit

Today I took Lane for his two month check-up. He is two weeks over...when I went for his one month I did not schedule it then, and when I called, our doctor was booked until now!! Lesson learned... always book next appointment while there!!

Anyway...here are Lane's two month stats:

Weight: 12 lbs. 12 oz.

Length: 23 3/4 in.

Head: 16 1/2

He is in the 75% percentile across the board which means he is on the right track!

Lane got four shots today and completley lost it!! I'm not kidding, he was so upset. It took me a good 10-15 minutes to calm him down! I felt so bad for him. When we got home he slept pretty much the rest of the day! And when he has been up he has been fussy. Hopefully tomorrow will be better.

Here is a pic of him today. See his cute little band-aid's? He had two more on the other leg. It might look like Lane has a little smile on his face, but it's not. He is knocked out!

Week Wrap-Up

First off, sorry for the lack of posting...I have been busy with school. I am happy to say that I am done for the summer! It was good to get back for the short amount of time, but I am definitely ready to spend every day with Lane again!

This past week Lane experienced a couple firsts! Uncle Andy graduated this week so Paul headed down to Victoria with Lane and without me!! Yes, I had to spend the first nights away from little man! Paul said he did awesome on the trip and got so much lovin' from everyone! And I know it was much harder on me than Lane! He also spent his first night in a hotel! He stayed with aunt Holly and cousin Coen! So, first long road trip in the books...and I must brag on my hubby for a moment...He is such an awesome dad..to take a two month old, six hours away...by himself!! He is so great and I am just lucky to have such an amazing husband!

We decided to try the Bebe Pod out...we didn't know if Lane would be able to sit in it but we tried it and he did! He was so funny....it came with a toy and Lane actually grabbed the toy and was playing it! He is growing like a weed!

I just love the top pic. We put his little UT hat on him! So cute. We also have been having paci wars!! We have been trying to switch out the paci's that Lane uses...but Lane is pretty adament that he only likes this one...the huge circle green thing that the hospital uses!! I can switch them for about two minutes then he spits it right out. So much for all the cute paci's that I got....I guess we will live with this one!

I will be better about posting from now on. I want to say HAPPY GRADUATION to ANDY!!! He is on to the Marines and I know he will do great!
