seriously mama...

enough with the picture taking already!

13.4

Yup. My little peanut is tipping the scales at 13 pounds, 4 ounces, and is 23.5 inches long. Tony snuck him in for a quick weight check today, and Dr. Walters stopped by to peek at him. She said he was just perfect. But we already knew that, right? I had been worried because Ryan is going longer between some of his feedings, but doesn't always eat more to compensate. I needed the reassurance of the weight check, and now I feel much better. I could SEE that he was doing fine, but wanted to confirm it, you know?

Ryan and I met his future wife the other night...my friend Angie gave birth to a little girl: Rose Abigail. Congratulations! And if anyone finds a blue puppy bootie at University Hospital, give me a call. ;-)

Off to pump and order a pizza. Have a great weekend everyone!

Oh yeah, one more thing! SO EXCITED that the clothes I was wearing before I got pregnant are now loose on me! Yahoo! I LOVE nursing/pumping! :-)

happy (belated) mother's day!

This past Sunday marked my first Mother's Day...what an emotional, wonderful holiday! We had a low-key day, meeting my mom and Terry for breakfast, doing a little shopping, and then vegging at home, napping, and doing a million loads of laundry. Ryan got me a new digital camera (mine was 5 years old and only 1.3 megapixels...yikes! Now I'm hooked up with 5.1), and my mom and Terry got me a gorgeous necklace with a little mother-child charm.

I don't have too many pictures of me with Ryan, since I'm usually the one behind the lens, but I made a point of having Tony take some of us on Mother's Day. It's hard to catch the little one smiling, especially with the lag on point-and-shoot digitals. But he's about to crack one in this picture...honest!

I hope all you moms out there had a wonderful day, too!

i'm it

• What's in your fridge?

Not much. Lots of condiments, breast milk, cokes, 2% milk, various juices, probably some expired hamburger, bagged salad, pudding cups

• What's in your purse?

Since I'm actually carrying a purse now that I'm back at work and can't keep the diaper bag with me, I just have my wallet, my keys, sunglasses, my phone, bc pills, and a spare pair of contacts

• What I wear now

During the week: work clothes. Although, I'm pleased to say most of them are from before I got pregnant and they are big on me! During the weekend: jean capris, cute tops, flip-flops, and my sling.

• What's on/in your DVR/DVD?

Watched "Brokeback Mountain" this weekend. And I have a Billy Blanks Tae Bo Total Fat Blaster DVD right now from Netflix.

• What's in your car?

Too much crap. Tons of blankets, the car seat base, lots of Burger King bags (have been stopping there every morning after dropping of my handsome guy at his baby-sitter's), stroller, phone charger, travel bottle warmer, winter accident kit

Now tag, you're it. If you don't have a blog, post your answers in the comments section.

are you there?

I've had a couple of people tell me recently that they check my blog often for updates on Ryan. If you're reading this, post a comment so I know you are out there. I don't want to spend time uploading photos and writing out posts if no one is reading....
