We had a great week! My time back at work was super. It has been a smooth transition so far. Christopher is doing great at school - eating and napping like a champ. He's also moving into more consistent sleep at night - about 7 hours at a time!



This was the second evening after Christopher started school. He was tired! So cute!!

February Fun!

I'm headed back to work this week and Christopher is headed to "school." Chris will continue with his busy schedule and we will soon be in our groove and new routine. Wish us luck! These are just some pictures from the last few weeks.

Just hanging out....looking a little mischievious.

What happened to my clothes?

Sunday night fun - Brown and Christopher and the activity mat.

We had our first overnight away! We went to the Junior League Ball and stayed at the Anatole. Lollie and Christopher had their first slumber party - I think they both had a blast.

Dallas SNOW!

We thoroughly enjoyed the blanket of white we had last week. Christopher has seen more snow in his two months than I think I did during most of my childhood. This has been a crazy Texas winter...and we may get more this week!



Christopher's first snowman!

Snow is exhausting!


Brown even liked it.

Valentine's Day

Valentine's Day 2010 was a very special day. We started our day at church and then went out for breakfast. We spent the rest of the day just bumming around as a family. I was spoiled by my boys and enjoyed wonderful gifts!



Roses from my little Valentine.

Ouchy

Today Christopher went in for his 2 month check up. All is well!

He is 22 3/4 inches long (he's grown about 4 inches since he was born) and he weighs 10 lbs, 11ozs (thats a gain of 3 lbs since he was born). Doc says he looks perfect...but then I have thought that all along.

He also got his first round of shots today. Mom and baby survived it but there were lots of tears - from us both. He has been fussy tonight and the only thing that seems to console him is being wrapped up in his Daddy's arms.

This picture isn't from tonight but it does show you how much Christopher loves his Daddy!

Two Months Old!

Well, here we are at two months old. I don't know Christopher's exact weight just yet. We go for his two month check up next week so I will be sure to give you his stats then. In the meantime, here he is with brown his dog.

In the last month:

• he's smiling at us!


• he's very alert to noises around him


• he's sleeping like a champ most nights - anywhere between 6-7 hours!


• we've decided on a daycare - he will be going to "school" at Dealey Child Care Center which is located at Presbyterian Hospital of Dallas (where I used to work)


• he has still had lots of visitors and many wonderful gifts brought to him


• lots of his hair fell out and is growing back


• his baby acne has cleared up tremendously

Last Friday Christopher went to visit his dad at his office. I think they both enjoyed it!!
