Time is Flying

Hi guys,

Well I'm happy to say the baseball season has started off great for the Giants. John went on opening day and they won! Wish I could have been there but Baby J is a little too young to go to places that crowded I think. I am not going to be an over cautious parent, but until he is 3 mos. I think its better to be safe than sorry :). He will, however, be sporting his Giants gear from afar. we were given some hand-me-down Giants outfits that are just a little bit loose on him but I'm still thinking a photo shoot is needed ;). I'll try to take some of those and load em up tomorrow. Haven't been feeling to good the past few days (bladder infection - bleh).

Wish me luck, the little dude goes for part 2 of his vaccines tomorrow morning (I had the dr. split them into 2 visits). Last time he screamed and screamed, it was so awful! I can't wait till he is a little older so I can take him for ice cream or something afterwards. I remember when I was little, my mom would take me to Longs and let me pick out a new Barbie or some other cheap toy to help "compensate" for the shots. I still hate getting them but its even worse when you grow up and there's no comfort toy afterwards! I could buy something for myself but it isnt the same haha.
Anywho, #5 is still continuing to be more and more active. He tries so hard to hold his head up everytime I pick him up now - before it was up and then bobbled and then went up again. He has gotten so much better at keeping it steady! He also smiles all the time, and last night when his dad was holding him I tickled his belly (in the manor of the Pillsbury dough boy) and he started smiling big and even laughed a little! So cute!
He is also growing like a weed and has almost outgrown all of the newborn clothes we got (and has outgrown the newborn diapers completely!) He isn't very "wide" but he is too long for most of the smaller clothes so he has been wearing the 3 mos. stuff. Of course it varies by brand so I've learned to just eye it.
Well its 11 pm and he is asleep..probably the earliest he has gone to bed in weeks. Usually at this time I am rocking him, dancing with him, flashing some lights against the wall, or dangling toys off the top of his bassinet to distract him into getting sleepy. I'm expecting him to wake up at 1 and be "ready to party" for 3 hours haha.
I still haven't had a chance to do the easter photos yet but maybe tomorrow. I've been an extension of the couch these past few days except for playtime, feeding time, and diaper time. Hopefully I'll feel more energetic before the weekend hits.

Incase I don't make it back, i hope you all have a Happy Easter!
