10 weeks and other things

Hey blogging friends! I'm 10 weeks old today!!!

My mommy went back to work on Monday. Man, do I miss her!!! But luckily, she got me a really good babysitter who takes great care of me and spoils me too! :)

I smile lots for my mommy and daddy!!! I'm quite a ham when they get the camera out!

Mommy and Mia the morning of my 1st day back to work!!!

Ohhh HILARIOUS pictures of the grandkids! (I think Jenn was the only one who got a good one!)
hmmmm does miss Mia look a LITTLE like her mommy here??? Please say yes!!

No words to describe this picture!! HAHA

A little unsure of it all!!!!

Brennan was trying to get Jayden to sit between his legs and pose....

Such a great cousin!! Helping Mia with a bath at Aunt Haley's house!!! She tends to have a crabby time in the evenings, so when that time pops up, we stick her in the bath and it realllly calms her down!!

Mia's 2 month shots!!!

Took 3 grown ups to hold this 10lb baby down!! :)

Growing like a weed!! She's so perfect!!!

Weighed 10 lbs 12 oz

Length 23 inches

and 100% sweet! :)

Connor James

What a special way to remember our sweet baby boy....Too much for words. You just have to see the picture....pretty much takes my breath away...

Miss you sweet Connor!!!

Mia on the beach!

We really enjoyed our first vacation as a family to South Haven!! A beautiful and quiet place to enjoy some time to ourselves!!!! We definitely want to go back next year and rent a big house ON THE BEACH with My parents, Justin & Haley and Blaine & Jenn...with all of the kids there too, of course!! It will be so much fun to hang out with all of them and watch our kids play on the beach together!!! I get excited just thinking about it!!! :)

Grad school and work both begin Monday the 14th! YIKES!!! Going to be one busy mama! So I will apologize in advance if I don't keep up in the blogging world! I'll at least try and get a weekly update, but my family, school and work come first :) ....then blogging!!

Wish me luck on this huge transition!

I have been married to such a wonderful man for the past 3 years. I can't imagine my life without him.

Stuck with me through pregnancies....

We made it through Connor's 1st birthday together....

Many fun memories made at Purdue football games!

Countless birthdays....

He loves me so much, he even ran a 5k with me!

He's a singer....

A dog lover....

A proud father to Connor

A proud father to Mia

He's my husband and I love him so very much. I don't know what I would do without him.

Happy Anniversary. I can't wait for the years ahead of us!

I love you!

8 weeks. 13 days.

Mia is 8 weeks old today!! And I have 13 days left to love love love on this special little girl before I have to head back to work...... I miss my co-workers and kiddos, so it will be good for me to get back to work and into a routine again! I HATE to have to leave her (maybe because I'm slightly overprotective of her) but there are bills to be paid! :)
