Capitol Visit

Today little man & I visited the Capitol.
We were there in support of The Personhood Amendment.
It was a beautiful day.

Embrace The Camera!

I had been dreading Ry's 2 month shots for a long time. Every time I thought about it I would ache in the pit of my stomach. But sometimes things go better than expected. Mr. Baker held baby boy's arms while the nurse gave the shots. I could feel the tears swelling in my eyes. His face turned deep red and the heart-wrenching cries started. But a tear never fell from my eyes. It all happened so fast and as soon as Mr. Baker and I bundled him up in our arms the crying was over. He knew he was safe, loved and protected.

an unwelcome week

I've been trying to avoid this week since longer than I can remember. Last night we moved baby boy from his bassinet to the pack and play. I'm glad that we are taking small steps in moving him to his crib otherwise I would be a complete mess. If it were up to me little man would stay in our room forever. But that's just weird. Unless my plan to keep him little really comes true...I'm still hoping. It was so funny seeing him this morning-all swaddled up in his cocoon he had managed to wiggle himself on the complete opposite side of the pack and play! I'm glad he did well in it even though it hurts to see him growing so fast already. I remember when he looked so tiny in his bassinet and now he fills it completely from head to toe.

Tonight I have to leave my baby boy for the first time. I haven't left him for more than about 30-45 minutes. Stupid two night 4 hour long CPR course! Seriously, it doesn't take that long to learn CPR people! I could perform CPR on the entire class 5x in that amount of time!

And the main reason that brought me to dreading this week: Ry's 2 month shots tomorrow morning. I'm so not looking forward to this. I don't know who is going to be more upset, me or my precious little man. ugh. wish me luck.

Lately

Not a lot going on lately, mostly just hanging out with Mr. Ry man. He's pretty cool though so I don't mind. The weather has been nice so we got to enjoy a few walks together. It's good to feel the sunshine. We are looking forward to spring at the Baker residence :)
