Super Baby!

Nic stood up in his crib today. Eric watched him pull himself up and stand, all by himself! He just turned 7 months old yesterday. He is now crawling (well, army man crawl really), climbing, sitting on his own and pulling himself up. We have already had to drop his crib down 2 notches, it looks like one more notch will have to go! Oh little man, you are growing up so fast! Right now he is babbling away and climbing on his Daddy. It's too cute!

Nicolas' Baptism Day


Nicolas was baptized on Sunday, April 23rd at St. Michael Catholic Church in St. Michael, MN. He had a lot of fun too! He didn't cry at all. Mommy got a little teary eyed though. :) Afterwards we had a party at our house and Nic got to play with his cousins. He really liked that! He was crawling with Amber and climbing on top of Sam. It was really funny! I think the day tuckered him out though because he took a 1 1/2 hour nap this morning, and he just went down for another nap 10 minutes ago! The kid plays hard!

Farewell to Bucky

Well, Bucky was voted off AI last night. That means Eric lost in his Fantasy American Idol league. He hung in there a lot longer than I expected though! I think that whoever has Taylor or Chris will go head to head for the championship. There is one thing I have noticed. Ever since Ayla was voted off for singing "Unwritten" by Natasha Bedingfield that song is on the radio ALL THE TIME. I remember looking at the Billboard listing around that time and the song had jumped from number 80 to number 8 or 9. In one week. Oh, the power of the Idol!

Tomorrow I'm going to Sadie's at the MOA with friends to get little Nicolas' 6 month pics taken. Everyone's bringing their kids too! 3 years ago we all would have been meeting up at a bar and now we are all meeting at a children's photography studio. Imagine that. I feel so grown up! Almost. :)

Ding Dong, Spring has Sprung!

As I sit at home alone tonight (Eric is out playing cards with his buddies) and little Nicolas sleeps, my house has been ding-dong-ditched 2 times. As much as I would like to yell at the little creeps, "F***ing stop that, my kid is trying to sleep!", it just reminds me that its spring and if I were 9 years old I would be out doing the same thing right now. :)

My how you've grown!


I am going to a scrapbooking clinic tonight so I had to print out some pictures for Nicolas' new scrapbook. Since this is the first time I will have worked on it, the pictures I printed out were from when he was just born. In the picture above he is not even a month old yet! I just can't believe how little he was! And now he is scooting across the floor and grabbing anything he can get his hands on! We also had to buy him a new car seat since the one in the picture is getting too small for him. The last 6 months have been the best 6 months of my life. No matter how hard it has been, how many sleepless nights, etc, etc, our son is the greatest gift that Eric and I could ever have! We love you Nicolas!

Attack of the 90 foot weiner dog!!

A Day of Firsts

Nicolas had two new experiences on Sunday! One good and one not so good.

Experience #1: He tried his very first vegetable, carrots! And he ate them all up! Yummy!

Experience #2: He had his first bath in the big people tub (inside an inflatable duck). And he HATED IT! Hopefully it will go better next time. He has grown out of his baby tub so there is no turning back now!
