Thanksgiving program

Lillian had her very first program at school on Thursday. I think I was more excited about it than she was. Oh, well!! She did a good job. No melt downs. I totally had to bride her to take a nap before the program. So, glad I did it! She looked so cute and did a great job! I was very proud of her!! She was so excited that grandma and grandpa got to come and watch her.

Reeve is 1 month!

 

I can't believe my baby is already a month old! Time keeps flying by. Before I know it, I will be back at work :( I really don't want to think about that. Reeve, you are such a good baby. I don't know what I would do without you in my life. You are the sweetest. You love to snuggle, you only cry if you are hungry or gassy. You have discovered the lights. You look for them in each room. You started smiling and have even giggled. That sweet smile melts mommy's heart. You do very well with your big sister constantly in your face. You take it with stride!

 

At one month:

you wear newborn to size 1 diapers

newborn to 0-3 clothes

sleeps most of the time, but starting to stay awake longer during the day

rolled over from belly to back

take 2-4 oz of formula

switching from Similac Advance to Similac Sensitive....you are doing well with it.

Happy 1 month to my sweet baby boy, Reeve. We all love you so much. We love to watch you discover new things. We love to snuggle and kiss on you!! You are such a sweet baby!

Happy Halloween

This year I had to goblins to take trick or treating! It was a lot of fun to dress up two kiddos. We went to a Trunk or Treat at Eastside Park. John and I were dreading it because last year was horrible. We stood in line for about 2 hrs. This year, we were in and out in 40 minutes....much better! Then, Lily had a Halloween party at preschool, which I was lucky enough to attend. She had a blast. I really enjoyed seeing her interact with the kids at school. Then on Halloween, we took Lily to Ms. Angie's house (her preschool teacher), the sheriff's department, and to her aunt and uncle's house.

Lily had a blast! It makes my heart happy seeing her enjoy these activities. I am glad I was able to attend all these activities with her this year. Next year, I will have to do some trading at work, seeing how next year I won't be on maternity leave.

Reeve's first Halloween

The Potts family...Halloween 2012

Family and Friends came to visit

 My sweet baby Reeve has gotten a few visitors since his birth. My mother, aunt, and sister came up to visit a couple of weekends ago. We really enjoyed the company. My sister made us dinner. It was very nice. I am so glad my sister got to meet Reeve. Since she lives in Seattle, it's not easy for her to get back home!!

My friends from home, Amy and Emily, also came over to meet Reeve. It was so good to see them. I can't even remember the last time I saw them. It was good to chat with them for a few hours. I am very thankful for good friends that would drive 2.5 hours to see a friend!
