My little prison inmate...:-)

Isn't this outfit cute?! I just put it on him today for the first time. It is courtesy of cousin Amanda! Thanks lady! He looks so cute in it! I just want to squish him all the time! :-) **squishes**

P.S. Secretly: I can't get over the hat, I want to put it on him everyday...he is going to hate me when he is a teenager isn't he?! haha!

Our little baby is growing up...

So Decovin is already starting to grow out of his newborn clothes and it is sad to me that he is getting that big! I wanted him to stay small forever...he is so cute and I just love watching him develop. He is starting to smile when you play with him a bit...not always but sometimes...it is so adorable when he does! The cooing is SLOWLY coming around...occassionally we will hear him coo but nothing consistant. It's hard to believe that 5 weeks ago I had him...seems like yesterday!

I go in for my 6 week check up next Monday and hopefully I will be good to go! (In more ways than one! haha) I am still having to wear, for the most part, my maternity pants and some shirts...I wish the weather was warmer, as I was enjoying taking walks with Decovin, but since it got bitter cold recently we have been house bound for the most part and I am not motivated enough to pop in an exercise video and work out! I just want to sleep still. When will the state of exhaustion pass? I miss sleep, a lot! However, I can't complain too much. Decovin is starting to sleep for 5 or so hours at a time and for that I am GREATFUL! I am hoping that soon he will be closer to 6-7 hours! Wouldn't that be a dream?! Well, Bob just put short stack to sleep so now I too must go to bed!

Sorry for the delay in post and sorry I haven't sent more pictures. Our computer has a virus of some sort and Bob is trying to destroy it without killing our computer completely...anyway...

Oh and did I mention that I am now a Pampered Chef Consultant? Anyone want to host a party? Let me know!

Our First Outing!

So this weekend was Decovin's first outing (and mine since he was born)! We went to Grandma and Grandpa Plummer's house. They live near the city so we figured if we forgot something or ran out of something they would be the closest to the a 24 hour shopping facility. Good thing we went there b/c we did end up running out of baby wipes!!! At least that was all we ran out of. I packed enough clothes for him for a week! Our car was full of all his stuff...babies require lots of things! I always knew this, but you never REALLY know until you have to pack it all! Geesh!

Anyway...we had a good time and Decovin got to meet a bunch of his relatives. He was all tuckered out by the end of the trip on Sunday. He slept and slept and slept! I was so thankful too b/c he had previously been really cranky and gassy so this was a relief for Bob and I. He slept so good through the night Sunday night that I couldn't have been any happier! :-)

Here is a 4 generation photo of Decovin, Bob, Bob's dad, and Bob's grandpa:
