This Week In Pictures (1/11 - 1/17)

This week has been a busy one.

And a cold one.

Moments being tired.

Huddled indoors from the freezing cold.

Walks taken (including first stroller ride for Andrew).

Letters written.

Books read.

Daily tummy time for my sweet little one.

Trips to the doctor & orthodontist.

Many baby clothes switched daily.

Many MANY diapers changed.

Time spent with Grandma.

Playtime with the kids.

Kisses and hugs shared all around.

Lots of pictures taken (indoors because again it's freezing outside)!

Tears (out of joy of course!) and smiles shed when John surprisingly returned home.

Free babysitting (from Grandma) while John & I finally had a date night.

It was a busy week.

But a GOOD week.

{Having a sad moment. Not too happy that we couldn't go pick up daddy from school. It must be so hard for children this age to cope with one of their parents away for awhile. I just scooped her up and gave her loves and popped in a movie. Not a replacement but we had fun.}

{Letters being written while their daddy was away}

{Smiles & Dreams}

{Smiling for mama! This was my lucky day to get a smile of his taken. He always smiles when I conveniently don't have the camera nearby.}

{The three amigos. I sure do LOVE them!}

{First time out on a stroller walk. I'm not sure if he enjoyed it or not. He was warm and fast asleep all huddled in his stroller while all the rest of us were freezing. I'm guessing because he stayed asleep that he enjoyed it!}

{Having a few minutes of storytime}

{Reading and laughing with Grandma}

{Andrew LOVES his tummy time. Somestimes he's so comfortable that he falls asleep this way}

{A mama loving her baby boy}

{The day John returned home. Spending a little time cuddling with his buddy}

{Jocelyn cozzying up with her daddy while reading a book. He was so exhausted from his past few days at school that he layed like this for hours not noticing the things going on around him.}

{Good times spent napping}

{Squeezing in a little time to sleep. Hard not to do while holding him all warm and cozy.}

{Like father, like son. Doing what they do best: palling around or snoozing. Note: pacifier conveniently nearby.}

{Eyes still blue as ever. And yes, that's a bruise on her head. It's from a combination of running into the grocery cart at the store and hitting the coffee table at home. Guess it's mandatory for toddlers to have their bumps and bruises from time to time.}

{Me calming my baby in the rocking chair}
