Happy Memorial Day!

It's been a nice long weekend.  We went to the pool, enjoyed a couple meals out, got away for a movie thanks to our wonderful babysitter, and relaxed.  Here's a few pics from the weekend :)

He did eventually get out of the car seat...but I didn't get any photos of him in the water...just glad he made it in and out safely :)

One minute, he's chilling on the sofa...

And then he was out for nearly two hours...

He LOVES his thumb!  

Need your fix?

Lil fryebaby pics...you know you want 'em :)

First Mother's Day

Lil' man has made this a wonderful first Mother's Day!  We traveled down to NC to spend the weekend with my mom and stepdad at their lake house.  We had a great trip down and back (first road trip!) and a great time at the lake.

My view of lil fryebaby from the front seat (love this mirror)...so precious.

Check out the muscles!  

Bro-bro showing me the card he gave me for Mother's Day...I cried!

Snuggle buddy!

Fedora

A friend from work bought this hat for fryebaby...omg...so cute!

Fun with Daddy

Lil' fryebaby and big frye-daddy enjoyed some quality daddy-son time this past week, as I spent my first night away on business travel.  And, since my mom was able to plan a visit while I was away, the trip was a success and everyone did great at home.

Look at these two...they're best buds...

In other news, check out the new play room on our middle level!  We relocated our bar cabinet and pub table and set-up a play area in it's place.  Thanks to furnishings from my favorite store, Land of Nod, we have a zone for all the fryes to enjoy...

It's still a bit of a work in progress as we wait for a cool bookshelf and a couple floor poufs to arrive.  Besides the super colorful rug, my fave piece is the play table.  It's height adjustable and can grow from it's current 15" height up to 24" height as fryebaby gets older.  And even though it's still too tall for fryebaby now, Billy and I are already putting it to good use...

...enjoying Sunday morning breakfast on the floor.  You can imagine, this is a brave new world for Skylar...babies, toys, and food all at her level :)  Lucky for us, she's doing great and learning to love her new little brother.

New Stuff

It's only Tuesday, and yet every minute I've spent with fryebaby this week has been full of new and fun developments.  Monday morning, when I dropped him off at daycare, I put him in this fun exersaucer and he immediately went to town, bouncing up and down like a crazy man and inspecting all the fun gadgets.  It was so much fun to watch him...

Monday night, while feeding him his rice cereal, we captured on film his new obsession with his thumb.  Between every bite, he wanted to suck his thumb.  It was pretty hilarious...

Tuesday at daycare, he got to meet the Easter Bunny (or bunnies, in this case) for the first time.  Mr. & Mrs. Bunny visited the kids and everyone got their photo taken.  Too bad I didn't know they were coming, or I would have dressed him up a little.  Either way, in typical fryebaby fashion, he was as cool as a cucumber and did great with his new oversized furry friends...

And, finally, Tuesday morning he discovered his feet for the first time.  He was laying on our bed and just started grabbing his feet.  He couldn't get enough of them.  I've been waiting for this moment, and was so glad I had my phone handy so I could snap these pics...

I wonder what else he has in store for us this week...

Well Dressed

I'm obsessed with this little guy's wardrobe.  I love organizing his closet and constantly rotating through his outfits.  I love coming up with new combinations.  My favorite color to dress him in is blue, thanks to those goregeous blue eyes he's still rocking.

Special thanks to all the grandparents and great grandparents who've helped him have a fab wardrobe.  We love all the clothes we've received!  Now we just have to figure out how he can wear an outfit more than once before he grows out of it :)
