Not So Wordless Wednesday

Never in a million years did I imagine that my child would have so much hair as a young baby!! He came out with a ton of hair!! I never imagined that because I was bald until about 2 years old and almost all of the babies in my family are that way!! Wilse on the other hand did have a headfull of hair as a baby, but I did not know this until after Brady was born!! I was very shocked in the delivery room when my Dr. yelled out "He's a Blondie!!!" I was in total shock!! Also when we went to the pediatrician for Brady's 2 month check-up, the pediatrician said he looks like a little nordic baby with his fair skin and blonde hair!! Well, I replied yeah you would never know that his dad is half Italian!! She couldn't believe it!! Here are some pics of my wild haired baby!! This is after I gave him a bath and just toweled dried his hair and let it go free!!

Pool

We bought a little 8 ft. by 30 in. pool. Brady loves it!! We are going to the beach for a week in August and I want him to get use to the water and everything!! One of the requirements when we buy our next house is it has to have a in-ground swimming pool!!

 I just ordered these Baby Banz sunglasses for Brady!! Aren't they cute!?!

New! Adventure Banz by Baby Banz 

Here are some pics from this morning!

Father's Day

Today was Wilse's first father's day!! We had a great day! We went to early church, then to Wal-Mart and then picked up some food and went home! We got a small pool earlier this week, so we hung out in that for a while and Brady loved it!! I didn't take any pictures but I will next time!! Wilse is such a natural at being a father to Brady!! He is the Greatest!!

4 months old

WOW!!! I can't believe my baby is already 4 months old!! We had his check-up today and he weighs 15 pounds 5 ounces (60%) and is 26.25" long (90%).  He threw a fit when the Dr. started checking his soft spot and moving his legs.  Then of course came the 2 shots!!! I have never heard him cry like that!! It was so loud!! I would calm him down and then a sec. later he would start again!! Needless to say I was sweating bullets!! I put his clothes back on him and got his diaper bag ready and then put him in the car seat and gave him a bottle. Well, that calmed him down enough that we could pay and get to the car!!  Then he cried himself to sleep on the way home! We are starting rice cereal tonight!!!!

  • loves to grab his feet
  • loves to squeal (we were at McAlisters earlier this week and he put on a show) Ha!!
  • loves his paci
  • loves to suck and bite on his hands
  • smiles and laughs a lot 
  • loves to reach and grab things
  • can sit with support
  • can stand with support
  • trying to roll over
  • thinks it's funny when I change his clothes
  • loves his mommy!!!!

Isn't he just adorable?!?!




I got him a new floor gym today! He has one but it doesn't have all the bells and whistles that this one has!!!!

Last weekend we went to Babies R Us and got this johnny jump up!!
He loves his new toys!!!

LV Obsessed!!!!!

Ok, so I am totally obsessed with Louis Vuitton purses!! I got these images off of a knockoff website!! The knockoffs are selling for almost $300!! Why not just save a little more and buy the real thing!!! I am not a fan of fake purses!! If I can't buy the real thing then I don't want it!! I currently have a small mini looping purse (discontinued) which I probably haven't used in over a year!!

/mo/media/product/M51147/m51147.jpg
 I have the horizontal batignolles which I use Everyday!
I also have a white multicolor international wallet(discontinued and I couldn't find a pic of the white one)
 
and a key and change holder!!
 I always want a new Louis so my recent thing is selling stuff on ebay to get a new one, specifically the Galleria GM.  
Well, I have decided not get a new Louis (not now maybe later) instead I am  going to purchase a DSLR camera! I have been researching and I think I am going to go with a Canon EOS 50D SLR.  I will get a lot of use out of it and I love taking pics (especially of Brady)!!!! 

canon 50d
Well I have already sold over $300 worth of stuff and have a lot listed!! My goal is to have the camera by the time we go to the beach in August!! I love to buy things on ebay too!! I have gotten so many cute outfits for Brady and a lot of cute stuff for me too!!
