Le Weekend

Hello Monday. ::sigh:: Hello bloggieters! Goodbye snow.

I am so sad the weekend is over and that it is Monday once again, sometimes life can seem like someone turned the repeat button on! Also, I think I am dealing with a little bit of seasonal depression. It is so dang cold here in SL and it seems like every other morning I wake up to a little bit more snow. I am so over it, my dad is sick and Krew has a stuffy nose. I swear in the Winter time it is always something needless to say I am ready for Summer! Here is a recap on our short weekend:

Linking up with http://www.samisshenanigans.com/ for the Weekend Update!

11. The pillow I sleep with is like 10 yrs old. It's a comfort thing. (kinda, gross. eh)
 
 
 
Eleven questions Kallee asked me:
 1. What's the most unusual thing about you?
I like to laugh at my own jokes. Okay, I LOVE to laugh at my own jokes. Sometimes, if they aren't funny I will laugh even harder to try to get the person to laugh with me. Err...
 
2. What food could they not pay you enough to eat?
I am going to go say Tofo. Just the name makes me queasy!
 
3. If you could have any job in the world what would it be?
Honestly I would love to be an OBGYN just to deliver all of the sweet babies in the world!
 
4. Is there anything you cannot say "NO" to?
Does Krew count? He can't even talk yet and it seems I cannot get a grip on myself with him!
 
5. Has any book or movie made an impact on you?
I can't say yes, but I can't say no. I am sure there has been a movie/part/quote that has made a bit of an impact on me but nothing worth noting.
 
6. What is the most annoying thing that someone could do to you?
I think the most annoying thing someone could do to me would be to talk badly about me behind my back. I am the upfront type a girl so you have something to say please say it to my face!
 
7. Have you ever had your heart broken?
Yep, BIG time. My best friend from pre-school to about 11th grade broke my heart into pieces right as my Grandmother was dying. Yeah, it was the best time of my life. I wasn't ready for a serious thing with him yet so he said F you B and fled after 17+ yrs!
 
8. What do you look for in a guy/girl?
Honestly, humor and honesty. Someone who can make me laugh but be extremely blunt and honest with me. Hence, my husband!
 
9. What was your most embarrassing moment?
Seriously? I can't name just one. Recently I slipped on the ice at work and face planted in front of ALL of our salesmen. Yeah, that was pretty embarrassing!
 
10. What is the weirdest thing about you?
Me? Weird? Well... I sometimes like to see how far I can push the envelope to see how uncomfortable I can get someone to feel. I have some pretty awesome stories!!

My life as of instalate

Seriously, If I am not the biggest instawhore I don't know who is! I love posting pictures of my little man, and you are just THAT lucky that I will share them with you on this foggy morning here in SLC. I am sipping chugging a TRIPLE shot iced white mocha enjoying all of my blessings from God! Here are some pictures from our crazy 3 day weekend:


(left to right)
 
1. It was finally above 30 degrees here in SLC last Thursday so Krew and I ventured out with our puppy dogs for about an hour. It was fun, he finally met the sun!
2. Yesterday I took the day off with hubbs (3 day weekend whoohoo!) and we shopped for Krews Easter pictures and started his basket! If you know ME you know I am CRAZY for Easter!
3. My little hardcore thug in his Run DMC shirt. Seriously, can't resist buying him clothes, he doesn't need them. I need to rehab.
4. Oh, that pretty lady. That's my bestie and we had a killer fun weekend! I am so thankful to have such an awesome friend who always has my back.
5. Little dude in his sunnies rockin' the shit out of them of course. Just like his mama. Oh, and Sophie. He loves her.
6. That's me with my new tattoo on Superbowl Sunday. I got it on Friday it reads Krew Arthur which is of course that one little soul who turned my whole life around and makes every morning so much more whorthwhile. Also, can this kid rock a bowtie anymore than he already does?

Krews Easter Ensemble


Ya'll it's getting on my favorite time of the year Easter! Seriously, I LOVE Easter like most people like Christmas! Of course I scheduled a mini session for Krew to have his pictures taken and I have been obsessing over his outfit since so like a month! I can't even wait, now that I am posting this I guess I should have done his Valentines post first but obviously I cannot contain my excitement! I even have a cute personalized Easter basket ordered for him!



Krews Easter Ensemble
 
 
I can just see him now cheesin' for the camera! I will try and post his Valentines post this week, I am also going to make little Valentines for his cousins, and the 2 kids he hangs with at the babysitter! I LOVE having a baby!!
 
XOXO
 

Better late

I figure it's better late then never to share some of Krew mans newborn pictures! He was such a wee one and we had so much fun with them! We went with the fabulous Amber Lintz, if you are in the Utah area and need a photograpgher she is amaze balls! Without further adue:

 
 
 


 

3 months!

My little dude is 3 months old today! I can't believe it. How? Why? People always told me how fast time flies when you have a little one of your own and man, they weren't kidding! I am happy, but sad. It's bittersweet, every morning it seems as he as grown in his sleep.

Krew Arthur
3 months
(12 weeks)


Height and Weight:
11 + pounds

Health: He did so well with his shots! We have him on prune juice twice daily, to help with his digestive system. I am goign to start cutting that back to once a day here soon. He is in size 1 diaps.


Sleep: He sleeps about 5 hours wakes up to eat and goes down for 2 or 3 more. At hsi well check the doctor cleared oatmeal cereal. We are using Earth's Best Organic oatmeal cereal in his bottle before bet and his 1 during the night.
 
Diet: Currently he is downing 4-5 oz of formula every 3 hours during the day. We are using Earth's Best Organic formula. It's easy on his tummy and it is organic which I like. I hate that the Enfamil/Similac stuff has corn syrup as the 1st ingredient.

Clothes: Dude is a shrimp! He is still in some newborn pants and 0-3 month clothes. I think he will be in 3 month clothes for quite awhile. Might I mention I addicted to buying baby clothes.

Baby Gear Love: He has a new found love for Sophie now that he is getting better at grabbing things, he likes to be upright in his bumbo or his high chair! He is getting so great with his head control. He also digs books!

Crying: I can't say my baby is much of a cryer. When he cries he typically needs something, he gets whiney at night when he is tired but that is about it! I think I got lucky!

Likes: I was blessed with a mamas boy! He sure likes his mama, he also likes to be read too. He hates his carseat, but LOVES when you sit and talk to him. He smiles from ear to ear!

Postpartum: I am confidant in saying I am back to my normal sane self! (;

Social: Krew LOVES to talk! He tries so hard to tell me stories of his day, and his coos melt my heart!

Milestones: I feel like keeping a human alive for 3 months is a milestone all in itself!
