All things Preston!(weeks 9 and 10)

Preston is now sleeping from 8pm to 6:30am. We wake him up at 10pm to feed him and that's it! Mommy's favorite moment of the day is nap time with Preston. He loves to cuddle up on mommy's tummy and fall asleep....pure heaven:) He loves his activity gym but is not really a fan of his swing(which was the only thing his sister really liked as a baby. Perfect example that all babies are different!). He loves bath time and loves car rides. Sometimes mommy even forgets to feed him b/c he doesn't cry when it's time to eat! We can't believe how big he's getting and how fast he's growing. We go to Gymboree and few times a week and Preston patiently sleeps in the car seat while Sophia runs around and tumbles out all her energy. He smiles a lot and loves having his toes tickled:) Here are some of the latest pictures of our little love bug:

He smiles for Nana:)

Look at those leggies!!!

Preston often falls asleep sitting up...surely a trait passed on from his daddy(ha!!!). He keeps his hands perfectly straight too!

I'm 10 weeks old!

Preston John's 2 month stats!

We took Preston to his 2 month doctor appt yesterday and he got his first shots(made mommy very sad). He's weighing in at 12lbs(55th percentile) and is 22 1/2(40th percentile) inches long. He's bringing so much joy to our home. We feel so lucky to have such a peaceful, happy and most important a HEALTHY baby. He smiles at his mommy all day which makes the days just fly by!

Bouncy castles and Jeep rides!

Today we drove out to Corona to celebrate Aiden Bowse 3rd birthday! Weather was perfect so it was so nice to be outside. We had Kelly and Rob in from New York last night and of course shared our traditional mexican food dinner and had breakfast with them this morning and then we were off! Sophia LOOOVED the bouncy castle but the highlight of the party was when Aiden took her for a spin in his jeep! She's quite the daredevil and they were driving down the street together giggling up a storm. She wasn't scared at all when Aiden would floor it and they ended their ride with a smooch. Too precious!









And of course a blog post wouldn't be complete without a picture of our newest angel baby:)

Palm Springs at 6.5 weeks

I tagged along with Brian to Palm Spring for the night since we had to keep the kids separate anyway due to Sophia's pneumonia. Grandma Tees was generous enough to come watch Sophia at our house while the rest of the fam hit the road! Brian and I were able to have a nice dinner with Preston and the next day I did a little photo shoot of our little man since it's pretty tricky to do these at home. He's so expressive and easy going and loves to give us big smiles. Here are a few faces of Mr. Preston John:

Sophia's 18 month stats

Considering we were at the doctor so much this month, I can't believe we forgot to document Sophia's 18 month stats! Last appointment( 18 months 3 weeks) Sophia weighed 24lbs 7oz and is 32"tall. She's still on the small end for her age but we have no doubt she'll grow nice and tall. She's such a sponge now and her vocabulary and memory amaze us. We can say a new word once and sometimes days later she uses that word in the right context. Yesterday I showed her a penguin in the store and last night she saw one on tv and yelled "penguin"!!! Her daddy thinks she'll have a good memory just like her mommy does! We love the new communication. She's starting to play by herself and we catch her singing to herself allll the time!! Her favorite cartoons are, Curious George, Barney, Yo Gabba Gabba, and now, Sesame Street (which she calls "Elmo"). Her are some pictures we took in the backyard...she's getting so big!

Sophia's first gymnastics class and more Preston of course!

Sophia had her first Saturday morning gymnastics class this morning and loved it! Mommy used to go to gymnastics every Saturday too so we were hoping Sophia would enjoy it just as much:) It's called Tiny Tumblers and the parents get to tumble with the kids. Ever week they set up a different obstacle coarse for the kids and Sophia learned how to do a summersault and a hand stand! She had her second bout of pneumonia this week but is feeling MUCH better and since we missed her first class last week we couldn't miss again!


This is mommy and daddy's favorite hat. This is Preston's "hurry up and take the picture already" look...we get it a lot...ha!

Peek-a-boo I'm 6 weeks old!

My mommy and daddy pretty much think I'm a dream baby. I REALLY love sleeping and hardly fuss or cry. I like to sleep 5-6 hours straight at night too which seems to make my parents super happy. My sister is home a lot because she's been sick since I've been born. I wouldn't hardly know what to do if the house was quiet and my sister wasn't singing so I don't mind. Here are some of the things I've been up to:

I can hold my head up like a big boy now!!


I like to flex my muscles like this:

I get kisses from my sister ALL the time!

I hang out in my swing. I actually used to sleep in it at night but now I've moved onto a rock and sleeper next to my parents bed and I love it:)

I make funny faces and started smiling a LOT more this week!

This is me trying my hardest not to smile:

Most of the time I'm sleeping kinda like this:

And a lot of the time it's on my mommy's tummy:

This is me when I was much younger...just 5 weeks(ha!) with my daddy!
