Playtime Outside

Robbie, Hawkins, and I had some outside playtime this Sunday. The weather has been so nice and pleasant, so we took a blanket and hung out in the shade while Daddy did yard work.

I barely have any pictures with my precious son...it is kind of sad. Probably b/c I rarely am showered and have make up on and have someone to take our picture!
I promise to get it together and be more presentable soon!

Family picture!



Love this smile!

First time in my BUMBO! I didn't like it too much...we will try again soon!

11 weeks

Dear Hawkins,

What have you been up to at 11 weeks?

-You love to sit in your bouncy seat and talk to Mommy (and Daddy!). You coo and gurgle and smile so big!

-You LOVE when Mommy sings to you. Your favorite song is "Itsy Bitsy Spider".

-You actually like tummy time - especially on your Boppy pillow.

-You love to lay on your back and look up at toys - on your activity mat or your mobile or anything you can look at!

-You have started to wear 3 month clothes! You could have probably started wearing them sooner, but I didn't think you were big enough!

- You are still in size 1 diapers.

-We have started giving you a 5 oz bottle for your nighttime feeding so you will sleep longer :)

-You sleep from 9:30pm-about 4:30 or 5am and then from 5:30am-7:30am. Sometimes you have bad nights, but most of the time you do great!

-You are a really sweet baby!

Playdate!

Hawkins invited over some of his favorite friends for a playdate on Friday. He will be the stud of Thomasville because they are all girls!! He helped Mommy make some yummy Halloween cupcakes and lemonade for the party.



Turner Page and Ann Rense Woody and Pierce Garland came over and we had a great time!
They loved the cupcakes!

Here I am all dressed up in my 3 month bubble! So cute!

Talking to Mommy!

Albany

Hawkins and I loaded up on Tuesday this week and headed to Albany! I love being so close to Crisp and Katie and a good half way meeting point to my Mom. She had a doctor appointment in Albany, so we all met and had lunch at Doublegate and spent the day in Albany! It is fun for us to get out of the house anytime, but a special treat for Hawkins to see his Aunt and Uncle! Here he is asleep at lunch with his Aunt Katie!

Two Months!

Hawkins is two months old today!

We went for his checkup with Dr. Jones, and he got a great report. He weighs 11 lbs and 12 oz and is 23 1/4 inches long - both in the 50% percentile. His head is 16 inches, which is in the 75% percentile! He has big brains! The doctor said he was perfect. We do not have to go to the physical therapist anymore for his head because it is looking a lot better. We have been working on getting him to lay and look towards the left and it has paid off.

He had to get two shots and Mommy could not even watch. It was horrible!

Here are some pictures from our 2 month photo shoot. I finally caught his precious smile on camera!

Hawkins' first trip to Atlanta!

Hawkins had his first big road trip last week to Atlanta! I went early with my Mom and we stayed with Hawkins' Aunt Virginia, and she was so sweet and took off work to babysit him two days! He loved it!

It was my first time driving in the car with Hawkins alone for a long distance, so I was pretty nervous, but he did GREAT! We started out the morning and drove from Thomasville to Americus - took a break - then drove from Americus to Newnan where Hawkins met his Great Grandmother for the first time! He was such a sweet boy despite being in the car for over 4 hours that day. Then we drove from Newnan to Atlanta. I am so lucky to have such a sweet baby in the car! He didn't make a peep - even when we were stuck in afternoon Atlanta traffic and he was overdue for his dinner!

Here are some pictures from our Newnan visit:

Big yawn!

Then we went on to Atlanta to shop and show Hawkins off! Sarah hosted a little get together so that he could meet all of Mommy's friends!

Here he is with Virginia

Then with Caulie

It was a busy weekend visiting with friends and going to parties. I went to two baby showers and an engagement party - all on Saturday! We had so much fun!!!
