Excuse me? 6 months already?

Waahhhhhhh! I can't believe it, really can't. I just love him to pieces and it's going by way too fast. I love snuggling with him, and knowing that it will end someday breaks my heart. So, for now I will just love on him as much as possible!

A healthier lifestyle

Why is it that when you're dieting, you think you're starving to death? I mean I am eating enough it's just that my fat arse is used to eating anything and everything I want and that is why my arse is so fat. I need to find some snacks that I like to eat. I don't care for crackers with peanut butter or yogurt. I get sick of stuff like that, or jello. Hello....I'm hungry.

I put myself in a bad mood with the thought of dieting, so I am telling myself I am making myself healthier not dieting. It's like I am depriving myself and I'm not. OH LORD HELP ME!

Starting to explore things...

So we put Greyson on the floor last night on a large cover with lots of toys. I didn't think he would be THAT interested in all of them, but he was. He was most interested in the train Tami bought him for Christmas. I really enjoyed watching him so in awe.

So Far So Good

Well, Greyson must've known I was going to take his bottle away from him in the middle of the night because he has slept the last three nights all the way through. YAY FOR ME!!! Each night I think tonight will be the night he'll wake up crying. But, so far so good. If he started waking up now I wouldn't even do the weaning thing. I would just rock him back to sleep.

After bath time we put him in his robe that he hasn't worn once. It was a little snug, and can we say a little short too? He has so many clothes and things that I am trying my hardest to at least get them on him for a couple of hours....jk. But I am trying to make it a full day, LOL. By the way the last time we took him to the DR (about a week ago) he weighed 19 lbs. Yeah my arms are starting to look like a body builders, yeah right Alicia. Well that's all for this post.





Oh yeah Deborah, these are the camo pants you sent him. Doesn't he look like such a stud in them!! Thank you!!!

Still not sleeping through the night

So, Greyson hasn't been sleeping through the night ever since he first got that Bronchialitis some weeks ago. We have a routine every night. I give him a bath (if it's bath night) then I feed him baby rice and a bottle. That's what the Pediatrician told me to start doing. We started that about 2 months ago. You would think that the additional food would make his belly full and he would sleep longer right? Well, he is still going to bed around 8:30. Then he's gets up at around 2am. I put him back to sleep after a 6 oz bottle about 30 minutes later. Then he's back up at around 4:30-5:00am. So, you can imagine how old this is getting. However Carlos does get up a lot too. So, I called the Pediatrician and they said I shouldn't be feeding him in the middle of the night anymore. With his weight he doesn't need a bottle in the middle of the night. She said to start weening him off by giving him only 3 oz. for a few nights and then like 1-2 oz and then stop giving him anything. I guess if he wakes up I should just either let him cry it out or I should get up and rock him back to sleep. I think this is going to be some long nights coming up. However last night was going to be the first night we started this and what do you know, he slept through the whole night! Finally, after a million nights of him waking me up.






Oh one more little thing. Carlos and I went to dinner tonight for V-day and it was a little bit noisy there. Let's just say Greyson has found out that he can scream. OH MY GOSH...is it loud. I kept apologizing to the people around us. He is such a little BRAT. Carlos and I were laughing and looking at eachother saying we are in for some trouble with this kid. He sure knows how to get attention!

Happy Valentine's Day!!!

I would be happy with just thinking my son is my Valentine present!! Have a great day! I hope it's a very loving and joyful one!!

Today Carlos and I were talking about going and buying Greyson a walker so he can start moving around more. He loves his exercauser so much. I remembered that we had Kylie's walker that Tami used like 7 years ago. We didn't know if we wanted to use it or buy a new one so we just put it in the basement. Well, we're glad we kept it. We brought it upstairs and cleaned it all up and Greyson went crazy in it. It was like he thought he was so free now. It was cute. When we first put him in there his arms were moving in the air and his leg were stomping on the kitchen floor. He was in walker heaven. So here is a little video of him in it.

Another cold?

Gosh, didn't we just get over a bad cold? Greyson is sick AGAIN!!! This morning when I went to get him out of his crib I turned him over only to notice he had yucky stuff from his nose all over his sheet. His eyes were all matted. I took him to the pediatrician and he has a cold ANDDDDDDDDDD pink eye in both eyes. Yes, I said pink eye. So, there are no drops for pink eye because it is a virus that has to run it's course. She did give me some antibiotics for him this time though. I am praying this goes away soon. I feel so sorry for him. He's not even going to know what being well feels like. He had that bronchialitis for like 5 weeks (was only supposed to last 2) and now this. Some how my little guy continues to smile through it all. I just love him sooo much!

And the teething thing continues. Part of his daily wardrobe is a bib. I wanna take it off so bad, but I can't. He is drooling so much that if I put him outside for a second he would have an icicle hanging off his chin, LOL. He is drenched with slobber. Here are a couple of pics I took of him. He likes this teething toy.

Goodbye Anna Nicole

I know she had some problems but I feel so sad about Anna Nicole dying today. I just can't believe it. Tami called me while I was driving and I almost crashed, not really. But, I was freaking out. I didn't agree with her lifestyle but for some reason I always hoped she would shape up and take better control of her life. I think she was AMAZINGLY gorgeous. Even when she was heavy she was still pretty. But she just couldn't ever kick the drugs or whatever it was. I feel sorry for her poor baby girl, now without a Mommy. And who knows who her Daddy is. I hope the truth will come out about who her father is soon. I am still in shock. I know what a weirdo I am for caring. But, what a horrible situation.

Cool Slideshows

We gots a toofers!!!

Oh my gosh I can't believe I'm typing this. Last night Cher was in the backseat of my car with Greyson because we were driving to Mom's and she said, "Alicia, you know Greyson has a tooth?" I was like WHAT???? Sure enough he has a toofers on the bottom. I haven't been overly anxious for him to start getting his pearly whites because I love his gummy smile so much. I have been feeling around on his gums though every now and then.It was kind of a cool thing for Aunt Cher to find. She just loves the poo out of him. I think it made her feel good to be able to tell me that he had gotten one.

Then today me, Cher, Mom and Tavia drove to Lebenon, Missouri so Mom could get her puppy that she found on the Internet. He is the most adorable doggie I have ever seen. He is a little weener dog. I am in love with him. I think she has decided on Karen's Red Baron for his name and call him Baron. I think it fits him well. Well, I am gonna lay Greyson down for a nappy. He's getting fussy, must be the toof.......

February ALREADY?

Wasn't it just New Years Eve? Man life flies by. I can't believe it. Today I am at home with this stupid cold I have. I am going to take Greyson to the babysitter anyway so I can be at home and not contaminate him. That's all he needs. But, I hate calling into work. I am the guiltiest feeling person. I always feel like they won't believe me or something. So, I left a message on my boss' voice mail. I told her if they HAVE to have me, I will come in. I figured at least they know I am at home and not out playing around.

We got a teeny amount of snow last night. Carlos is plowing somewhere. Greyson is all cozy in his crib, so I guess I'll wait until he wakes up to take him. I got this new scrapbooking software yesterday. It's pretty neat. Here is the 1st one I made on it last night. I need to take more pictures of my lil man so I can make more. But, what will I do with all of them? Nothing.
