Spring Lovelies

Spring is here and I'm already in love with the colors! 

Mint & pink are some of my favs right now-thanks Pinterest :)

we like to play games...

This past weekend we stayed in a lot and the hubs and I were reacquainted with our long lost love for playing games. We did a little Jenga and Balderdash. I know Jenga's an "oldie but a goodie", but it was actually my first time to play. Even though Mr. Baker won I enjoyed it. He's a little better at understanding physics so basically he's a nerd. ;)

High Five Friday!

Baby Boy, I love...

Your big blue eyes...

Your gummy smile...

Your screechy laughs...

Your cute button nose...

The way you curl and flex your toes while you're eating...

Your furrowed brow...

Your coos...

Your soft skin...

Seeing your face first thing in the morning...

Your little sneeze...

Your chubby cheeks...

Your half innie/half outie belly button...

Holding you til my arm goes numb...

Your baby smell...

Your full belly...

When you place your hands on mine while I hold your paci in, as if you want to keep my hand there forever...

Your sleepy grins...

Our naps...

Your gripper toes...

When you get so excited like you're about to burst and all you can do is smile, screech, kick and flap your arms...

Your birthmark...

Your lashes...

Your yawns...

How you melt in my arms when you're sleepy...

That you want and need me...

Baby boy you are perfect in every way.

I can't wait to hear you say that you love me, but I already know that you do.

2 months

So this post is a tad late seeing as you will be 3 months in nine days. You know me though, always late.

Here are some fun things about you at the moment:

When you were first born most people said you looked like your daddy. Now it's about half and half. Some say you look like your daddy when your eyes are closed, but like me when they are open. Don't tell daddy, but I kinda like that. :)

You started to really recognize us and play with us more this past month. It's so fun to watch you get so excited when your dad gets home from work. You guys just talk and talk. You know, the important stuff- sports, politics, etc. ;)

Your neck is getting stronger and stronger and your little legs are too. I can tell that you wish you could be doing more than your body will allow you right now, but don't worry you will be rolling over before we know it!

One of your favorite things is cooing. At church this past Sunday you started talking up a storm during Pastor Ronnie's prayer! It was too cute! You also love looking at yourself in the mirror-I know you're gorgeous, but stay humble little man! 

Your favorite thing to do with daddy is laugh-he does make some silly faces bubba I agree. Our favorite thing is cuddling-you love our naps together. :)

At your 2 month visit you weighed 10 pounds 9 ounces and were 23 inches tall! You were 44% in height and 10% in weight. My little beanpole! Looks like daddy genes are in the works!

You were so brave when you got your shots. One proud mommy and one proud daddy right here.

We love you more and more each day baby boy.

Snippets

My little man loves his paci. He can't get enough of it. 

I bought my first pair of rain boots since my yellow duckies I had when I was little. 

Baby legs!

Baby Gap!

Baby neck training!

Hope you had a great week!

Evaluate

It's good to take a step back

to evaluate your life from time to time

Look at where your heading

Imagine where you want to be

Make sure you are on the right path

Prioritize

For me it's all about my purpose

My purpose in life is to glorify God

No, I'm not perfect, but this is my strive

This is a day to day, moment to moment, take action kind of thing

My relationship with God is not a sit back and enjoy type of thing, no

There's more to it than that

You see it's not all about us

There's more at stake

There's an eternity ahead

And that's what I look to when it comes to the day to day

I hope I make a difference for eternity

I hope I matter for Your glory

I'm evaluating my life.

What's your purpose in life? 

Are you living it? 

What steps do you need to take to get there? 

I hope you all take some time to evaluate your lives. 

You won't regret it. 

Promise. :)
