Weekend Recap

This weekend was great!  My hubby had a four day weekend so I was excited for this weekend for a while.  Since he had a long weekend we decided to take advantage of it and planned a trip up to my family's cabin in the mountains.  We left Friday morning and came back Monday afternoon.  It was AMAZING!!!

Now get ready for picture overload...

All snuggled up for the cold.

This new hat and mittens just killed me.  I couldn't stop snapping pictures and laughing.  He looks so pissed and so cute all at once!

"Mom what the hell are you doing to me?"

Then he fell asleep because he's all cozy and warm.  By the way we were in the little village walking around to all the shops and it started really cooling off so I bundled him big time!

I had to get a picture in his mountain moose pajamas!

Our friends came with us and their little girl was fascinated by Rhett.

She never liked pacifiers but she wanted his!

All stretched out in moose PJs.

And then a moose onsie!

Tried to get good pictures but it was a little chilly and I didn't want him outside for too long.

Especially without a hat!

Rhett and daddy, Rhett in his bear PJs that daddy admitted were his favorite on him.

Rhett was also fascinated by the sun and trees and sky, so no looking at the camera.

Getting ready to leave and I just thought he looked like such a big boy in this picture.  Makes me sad to see him grow so fast.

Best weekend! Can't wait for next weekend!

Mommy and Me

 Well my weekend is just now ending so look for a weekend recap tomorrow because that's my Monday but for today I will share some Mommy and Me pictures.

 

We went to our family's cabin in the mountains this weekend (more details to follow on this later) and had a great time and took some cute pictures, although not as many as I wanted.

 

I desperately wanted pictures of him in his super cute moose onsite. He would not look at the camera and stared intently at me...I think it was the beanie, he's not used to seeing his mommy in a hat.

 

 

So then I was laughing at him and my hubby caught this cute picture. Love it!

 

 

I also wanted pictures of him in his adorable bear thermal onsite. This time he found something else interesting to look at that wasn't the camera.

 

 

Looking at these pictures make me realize how big he is getting and it makes me both sad and excited. Stop growing baby boy!

 

Happy Monday (my Sunday)! 

6 Weeks Old

Today Rhett is 6 weeks old. I can't believe he is already 6 weeks! Totally cliché but man does time fly. I know I'm not going back to work yet because I'm using the FMLA time we can have but I can't imagine some people actually go back to work at this point. I could never leave my little peanut yet (but I'm a little overattached).

He is becoming so much more alert and staying awake for longer periods of time.  It's fun to see him change every day.  I feel like any day he may start making noises (other than screaming or crying), but that could be just me hoping.

He refused to look at me the whole time I was taking his pictures.

On another note, we had a very interesting bath time tonight.  First, daddy said the bath was ready but when I walked in, it wasn't quite ready so my naked little peanut peed all over the wall next to the toilet...hilarious!

Then we put him in and started our routine when the dog decided to help.  This was cute so we decided to take some pictures.  Then something happened....

the dog found the leopard print rubber duck on the ledge and wouldn't let it out of her sight.  She is a bird hunting dog but she is also a little crazy...exhibit A:

This was entertaining, but it gets better.

I continue to bathe him and all of a sudden I see something by his butt...yup he shit in the tub...I mean really let loose.  I started to panic but then gathered myself, got my hubby's help, and got him out of that mess.

It was all very entertaining and a great end to the day.  Let me just say though that hubby did not like cleaning up the shitting bathtub.  Thanks babe!

Happy 6 weeks Rhett and happy Tuesday to everyone else!

Week Wrap Up

This week was crazy busy!

Monday my aunt came up to see Rhett.  She brought my cousin's little boy with her and he was all over the place.  Makes me enjoy this somewhat quiet time I have with Rhett right now.

Tuesday Rhett and I brought Daddy lunch at work.  It was a way to get out and also a way to see my hubby during the day.  I strategically planned his outfit for this trip...you like??  Daddy did!

Wednesday Rhett and I went to a Mommy and Me group a friend told me about.  I really enjoyed it and plan on going back again next week.  They have a lot of experts there that you can ask questions about whatever you're wondering about.  And then there's moms going through the same thing that can chime in too.  It's nice.  Plus they have a scale where you can weigh your baby before and after a feeding.  Needless to say Rhett is doing well in the eating department and is getting way too big too fast!  Rhett had fun (he nursed practically the whole time) and this is what he looked like when we got home.

Thursday he woke up entirely too early, and stayed awake, so I thought a Starbucks trip was in order.  So in our PJs, off we went to Starbucks.  Then we went to my mom's office and brought her a warm beverage.  After visiting for a while I took him home to nurse him and hang out.  Well when I got home he decided he wanted to sleep a little before eating which was perfect because it gave me just enough time to shower and get somewhat ready so that I could be productive after nursing him (we're still at the point where we plan everything around his feedings).  So after he ate and I finished getting ready I took him to my school to show him off to all of the office ladies and some of the teachers.  He didn't leave the office or his carseat because of germs and whatnot but it was nice that people got to see him.  From there we had just enough time to run home and grab me a quick lunch, nurse him, and head down the hill for my postpartum visit (which I wasn't happy about but I'll talk more on that later).  I have no pictures from this day because it was such a whirlwind!

Friday was our stay in our PJs all day and do nothing day.  It was much needed and very nice!  Rhett did get out of his PJs after spitting up on them, so he wore this cute number.

Now it's practically the weekend (I consider Friday after work part of the weekend) and Daddy and I were able to go to a nice steak dinner with Rhett.  He was good and slept the whole time (thank goodness).

I can't wait to spend all weekend with my two favorite guys!  Have a happy one!
