Mmm, Mmm Good

Rice Cereal...yummm!





I think we got some in his mouth.


Stay tuned. Next week....vegetables.

I Can't Believe My Eyes

Let me tell you, the sun NEVER shines in Cleveland.


And by NEVER, I literally mean NEVER. I can count on one hand how many times the sun has shone since last summer.


As in, we're all supplementing with Vitamin D every day.


Much to my surprise, the sun was FINALLY shining the other day so we enjoyed some much needed time outside.



And soaked up every glorious minute.


Guess it just makes you appreciate it that much more.

Still Running

Here we are six weeks later and I'm still running. It's now become routine. Brett always takes his morning nap around 11, so we all pack up about 5 minutes before then and hit the gym. I'm just running at our complex so I sit him either in his carseat or stroller next to me and he immediately falls asleep. It's funny because the moment I finish he wakes up. It works out perfectly! It's a 9 week program so I have 3 left after this week. Next week will be the real test, all running, no walking breaks.

Like I said before though I'm not one to just go run or workout on my own, it's best if I have a plan to follow, so I think after the C25K is over I'll start training for a 10K; otherwise, I'm fearful that I will just stop altogether.

I don't love running yet (I never really have), but I have a lot more energy and am a lot happier so I do love that!

Happy 4 Months, Brett!

Brett celebrated his 4 month birthday last Sunday (I know, I often do posts out of order, but I thought it necessary to post the Easter post asap). He asked to be twins with his dad for his birthday so that's exactly what he got.


He weighs 16 lbs 2 oz and is 26 inches long. Dr. K said he is perfectly proportionate : ) But definitely a big boy! The whole appointment was very uneventful, which is how I like it. Brett didn't even realize he was getting a shot until the second needle, but he only wimpered a little, no crying hysterically like last time. But just like last time he was fast asleep before I could even get him in the car. The doctor wears this little guy out! He still has acid reflux so he continues to take Prevacid and Alimentum formula. Hopefully, at 6 months we'll be finished with the billion dollar cans. Brett has a firm grip now and my hair has paid the price, I think it may be time for the "mommy" cut. He started rolling over several weeks ago, but not consistently and then completely stopped so Dr. K thinks it will be anytime now. He's constantly pushing himself to the standing position when we're holding him so I think it's time to get this kid a jumper.

It's hard to believe the next time we see Dr. K we'll be moving back to Oklahoma 2 days later.

It was an Eggsellent Easter

We hope everyone had a wonderful Easter. Brett celebrated his first Easter by losing one of his shoes on the way to church, spitting up all over his cute sweater vest (thank you acid reflux) and then by refusing to take an afternoon nap....but besides all that, I think he really enjoyed it!
