Now We're Even - Go Chicago!

Lookin' Good in Black & White :)

Yeah! The Sox won the second crosstown series! Now let's keep our fingers crossed that we have to do this all again for the World Series :) Aaron actually handled his "boy" being in Sox gear all day pretty well. I'm ready for football season so he can support the Bears!!!

Watcha Lookin' At?

I'm not sure if it's the light on the camera, the flash, or what but this is Andrew's new thing.

Big Blue Eyes!!

Bathtime Peek-A-Boo

Ready for bed, N.G.B.Y.P.D. sweet pea :)

I give Andrew a bath every other night, and we always start with his Bathtime Peek A Boo story. Tonight, Stanley was playing peek-a-boo with Andrew in the tub. Andrew's really starting to like bathtime now, we have so much fun.

A Deal's A Deal

OK, so Aaron and I made a deal that whoever won the crosstown series, Drew gets to wear their team! Since the Sox let us down, I have to post Andrew in his new Cubs outfit from the Goodbred's :( It's a good thing he looks so adorable in Cubbie blue! Hopefully I'll be posting him in Sox gear next weekend for the series at Cellular Field. The bottom picture is of him picking his head up while laying on his tummy, he's getting so strong.

Good Morning Smiles!

There's just no better way to start your day then waking up with your happy baby smiling back at you! Here's some more pictures to make you smile! Our neighbor asked us how the video worked on our camera so we're testing it out :)

Happy Boy :)

We were having so much fun this morning, I couldn't stop snapping his adorable smile! So since I caught so many good shots it was too hard to decide which ONE to post, so I narrowed it down to 7. Aaron says this makes all the screaming worth while, he's so positive :)

Happy Father's Day :)

I love my Daddy!

Daddy's trying to catch a pic of me smiling, but keeps missing all my smiles

Mommy loves to steal kisses to make me smile!

Hangin' out with my cousins :)

Hope everyone had a great Father's Day! Aaron had to work all weekend so we celebrated on Friday and hung out as a family today :) Here's just some random pics from this weekend. For all you anxious Father's to-be I hope you had a special day too!

P.S. ~ Andrew is officially sleeping in his crib!! YEAH :)

Sweet Dreams

Andrew slept in his crib all night last night! Thank God for video monitors :) I was up all night watching him, but we're so excited!!! He was up to eat more often than usual, but one step at a time. Let's hope it's a success again tonight.

Bathroom Fun

We were just having fun yesterday morning before he got dressed for the day. I cant believe he didnt pee on the pillow!

I'm In Love

God he's just getting cuter and cuter everyday! Today he smiled (not gas) for the first time at Aaron :) He's been a lot happier the past couple of days. We're trying to help eliminate his gas by keeping him upright more and using gas drops. Thanks for all of your help, it's so nice to have so much support!!!

4 Weeks Old

What happened to our sweet little angel? Everyone told us to just get through the first 10 weeks - they're the hardest. No one told us that the "honeymoon" period would come to an abrupt halt at about 2 1/2 weeks (I guess it takes that long for 2 epidurals to wear off). Now he fights us to fall asleep, and becomes inconsolable at 7:00 p.m. every night. Now we're using Gripe Water for gas, constantly running him into the bathroom to listen to the fan, and trying every different position possible to hold him in. He had a great day today, so I'm preparing for what tomorrow brings us. I still look down into his sweet face and smile, he's just our whole world! Soooo, 6 more weeks of trying to figure out what makes him happy and comfortable. Gracious, please send me any tips if you have any (besides margarita's :)!
P.S. ~
We have had made some progress, he now tolerates a bath with no screaming! YEAH!!!
