Baby Boy's First Halloween

This first picture is a little scary- baby boy gave his best "growl" face!

BOO!

Story Time

Yesterday I read Baby Boy his first storybook- the Little Critter's Just Me and My Dad.  He bought this for Hubby as a birthday gift.  Hubby's birthday was yesterday also.

He fell asleep halfway through.  Here's a cute photo of how Baby Boy fell asleep in my arms a few days ago.

Baby Boy at One Week

Take note of his beautiful eyelashes, compliments of Dad and Mom's genes!  Stefan and I both are blessed to have long eyelashes, and so is Baby Boy

In his swing.  Grammie C bought us this yesterday and it is a mini-miracle.  BabyBoy loves it.  When he woke up at 4am and again at 7am for feedings he was placed in the swing after eating/burping and fell soundly asleep!  It has 6 speeds, as many musical ditties, and also a timer.  The best part is, it is battery operated so no cranking!  We just need to keep "D" batteries in the house!!  Too bad it's Winnie the Pooh (I'm not a fan of Disney at all)... although beggars cannot be choosers and Stefan and I were so excited to be able to have a swing we didn't care what design was on it- ok, we probably wouldn't have chosen pink flowers or something very girly   Thanks Mom for the swing!!!

Baby Boy has arrived.

Up close and personal!

Sleepy boy.

Bed Rest is boring me!

I'm tired of bed rest.  So I organized my bookshelves and the kitchen.  Also took a picture of a blanket dad made for Juri.

Pantry.  If you notice the door, we still have the calendar on September- we are behind the times!

The baking cupboard.

Everyday dishes cupboard.  Bought some great green bowls at Home Sense on clearance for $3.00 a piece.  I purchased 4.  Great size for a small bowl of cereal or a small dessert.  I'll post a picture later- if I remember.

Apple juice Rocket Pops.  Basically, fill the Rockets with apple juice and freeze.

Organized my bookshelves.  Basically put everything from the left shelf on the right- and vice versa.  Also packed away some of my pregnancy books and cross stitching items.  Seeing how my fingers are numb I cannot stitch very well, and after Baby Boy comes I'm not sure I'll have the time to stitch.  So everything went into a tote for now.

Doggy blanket dad made for Juri.  I got this fabric in the States for something ridiculous  like $.50 a yard.

Close up of the blanket.  It's flanal, and of course, Bmer thinks it's his.

Blog Break until Baby Boy comes

I am taking a small hiatus from my blogging until after Baby Boy is born.  I have been told by two doctors to keep my feet up and rest.
I cannot take pictures of anything interesting from the couch or my bed.  At least not anything I would think interesting.
I will say that if Baby Boy is due this Sunday, Oct 9.  My OB/GYN says that if he isn't here by Thursday he will then schedule me for an induction.  So he will be here within at least 2 weeks.
Stay tuned for his blog debut!!
