Camping

We took a family camping trip this past weekend. The weather was great and Wes enjoyed being outdoors. Here are a few pictures of our trip.

Hanging outside. Big Cheese for MOM

Happy Easter

Well it was Wes's first Easter. We started Easter by dying eggs Saturday night. Wes thought he was supposed to eat the eggs.

Wes helping me dye an egg.

Getting ready for my bath. If you look closely you can see my hands and face are tinted blue.

Victory was a big girl. She didn't eat the eggs.

Easter morning. Checking out what the Easter bunny brought us.

Wes in his bunny ears. The duck he is holding quacks. He laughs everytime you press the button to make it laugh.

My cool shades from Grandma & Grandpa.

Wes wanted Victory's ears.

Happy Easter everyone!!!

1st Haircut

Wes received his first hair cut this weekend. He has a lot of hair but it was so uneven. Aunt Jessie trimmed it up a bit and gave him a cute little faux hawk.

5 Months

Happy Easter!!! Nikki and I took the kiddies to have pictures done for Easter. I thought Wes was going to be GRUMPY he was ready for a nap, but he did really good.

Wow I can't believe on Friday Wes will be 5 months old. The time has gone so fast. It kind of makes me sad. These pictures make him look so much older. Joe and I have loved everyday we have had with out little guy. We are truly blessed with such a cute and precious child. Wes keeps growing everyday and learns something new every week. His personality is showing more and more everyday. I think we are going to have our hands full with this little one.

Wes & Maggie

This is a video of Wes getting so excited over Maggie. He has started to notice her and just laughs anytime she comes to him. Joe and I laugh soooooo hard each time. It never gets old.

4 months & working with Mommy

It's been a while since I updated my blog. So this post is probably going to be a little long.

This is Wes in the cute little trucker hat I had to buy for him.

Here is my lil gangsta!!

I just love his little grin. He was talking away in his playpen. I walked over and happened to capture this cute face.

Wow I can't believe that Wes is 4 Months old. It has gone too fast. We have started feeding him solids. He did not like rice cereal the first time we fed it to him. He still isn't a big fan of the rice cereal. (Can't say I blame him). His favorite is foods so far Bananas. We tried peaches tonight but he wasn't too sure of those. We will keep trying.

Getting ready for my first bowl of cereal.

My first bite. YUCK

Another gross bite of cereal

After all is said and done I ate the whole bowl!!!

At times Wes makes a BIG Mess. He has it in his hair, eyes and even in between his toes. But he is becoming quite the pro at eating. He even likes to feed himself. (I don't know if like is the correct word, more like HAS TO feed himself)

As most of you know I have been so lucky to get the opportunity to take Wes with me to work. Some days I don't get much done, but I love having him there with me. We enjoy our days together and it is less worry for mom because he is not at a daycare. Nikki is done working and getting her house ready so she can babysit. I am going to be very sad :(. So will everyone at work. We will all miss having him there to brighten our day. He brightens my day every morning. I have been so blessed these last 4 months. It has been fun and a great chance for us to bond.

He likes to be my little helper. He even drools on my papers and files. He enjoys sitting on my lap and helping me type on the computer.

Work can be sooooo tiring. He crashed while playing on his playmate. He was so tired he didn't even take his hand off of the Zebra.
