rest of my birthday and my wicked awesome time in Dallas!

First of all, i need to tell you about our trip to dallas, it was about a month ago. we went to do the susan g. komen in dallas, it kinda holds a special place in our hearts and memories together. bonus, we got to spend time with di and angel, my sister and parental units. so we stayed the night with the quints on friday and saturday. it was so nice to be around them again. they are truely a blessing to us and we are so blessed to have them in our lives. so we got in and went to dinner at campisi's (honestly next to my friends is what i miss most about dallas), then we went back to their house and i ironed on letters on a shirt for noah for the race, since i don't really believe in ironing, i had to wait until we got there because we don't have an iron. angel was attempting to sew on patches to his uber cool scout uniform. he actually sews alot better than i can. then we all kinda crashed and got up the next morning really early. di had school and angel had a scout thing he was doing. we went to the race and i must say i did alot better than i thought i would. i finished in 1 hour and 24 minutes! isaac finished in 24 minutes-overachiever! it was good and they had all kinds ok SWAG, but people were getting really crazy with it and like pushing people and yelling, it was really not cool. i even saw this lady yelling and a survivor-really super not cool. people were piling in fruit, yogurt and water into their bags like it was the end of the world and that was the last bit of food left. we got lost from eachother for about an hour, which really stinks because i didn't have my phone. it was a big mess, but when the crowd dwindled we finally found eachother, it was a beautiful moment. we went back to take showers and meet up with my sister and her friend jenn to go to the fair. we had a good time, except it felt like the surface of the sun. i always forget why we don't go in the afternoon until we are already there. however, i did get my corndog that i didn't get last year. we don't really go to play games and such, we go for food and for the car show. we looked and dreamed about the cars we will get when isaac gets out of school and it was really fun. we also indulged in a shared turkey leg and ice cream. life was good but we were so tired from the race that i am not sure we were in the right mind set for fair time. we then headed back to the quints to meet up for dinner. we went to BJ's with my parents, sister, jenn and the quints. it was really nice to spend time with all the people we love. we then we BACK to the quints for a nice saturday night rest. it was a long day and the rest was more than welcome. we got up on sunday and got ready for church, we couldn't stay the whole time, but we were excited to be back in our old ward. angel and di made us french toast for breakfast and it was truely a treat. di introduced me to corn syrup on french toast, which is really good. we went to sacrament and then we headed home. when we got home we just poured ourselves into the couch, it was a bittersweet moment, we were glad to be home, but sad to leave the company of family and our best friends.
Now, my birthday! work was good, I had a big ticket client come in, so that was really nice. Then, we went to Buca di Beppo (my traditionaly b-day spot next to Texas Land & Cattle). we had coupons for an appetizer and a dessert for my b-day, hey I am not above coupons. we got my $40 b-day dinner for $20!!! I am not complaining. I got "the holiday", a gel bicycle seat and cute new booties to keep my toes warm. i loved all my gifts, my sweetheart knows me so well and always gets things i can use. then we went home and watched TV. it was such a nice birthday. so now, i have caught you up hope you enjoy.

It's my birthday!!!

Yeah!!! I am so glad, ok so I am a little sad I am so close to 3o, but you can't really avoid it. The daytime doesn't really feel very special to tell you the truth. Isaac has to work and we have no family and not really alot of friends down here. So, it is just like any other friday. Went grocery shopping and taking care of Noah. Although, I am going to try to get out and get myself a new birthday outfit. I have to work tonight...I know it gets better and better. After that I get to go on a date with my two favorite boys for dinner. i am really excited! The best thing is I do have Noah this year, las year I can remember being so preggers and so ready to have him and this year we get to share all those special moments together. I did get new borthday hair lastnight, which is really nice. I know I sound kinda down, but it has actually not been such a bad day. Will write more and let you know how the whole day was. OOh, i did get one of my birthday presents..."Shopaholic and Baby", I am excited I finally get to finish the whole series.

Mi Vida Loca

Ok, so I know that I owe an explaination as to why I haven't posted in a while. Here we go.
They sent me to an endocrinologist to find out what is going on with my "lazy thyroid", come to find out it's not lazy it's almost dead...humm...wish Lee Pace would come and bring it back to life (Pushing Daisies joke). So they bumped up my meds a whole lot and so far I am feeling much better. Still need some work but much better.
In other news and possibly the most stressful, my daddy was having some chest pains last week and went to the doctor. He can't have stress tests because it literally almost kills him, so they were supposed to order a heart cath. He gets to the hospital where he was supposed to have his heart cath and what did they order? That's right, a stress test, so he didnt' have it done. Flash Forward to the next day and he gets a heart cath. Come to find out he has a 70% blockage in the back of his heart so they can't get to it any other way but surgery. You guessed it...Bypass surgery number 3!!! ON HALLOWEEN!!! So, I drive 6 hours with Noah on Thursday night and got to Tyler around 11 or so, went to bed around 1 got up at 4:45 to get ready to got to the hospital. He went into surgery at 7 and everything went really well and what was supposed to be a single bypass turned into a triple bypass. I had to leave before he got out of surgery, but they were wiring him back together when I left so I felt pretty good about leaving. Anyhow, he is doing well with the possibility of going home tomorrow.
Anyways, I will write about our super awesome tubular time in Dallas pretty soon, I just wanted to let everyone know what was going on.

I know you've been waiting

Yes, Yes, it's that time again. It's almost fall. The weather is cooler. The trees start to give the ground brown, crispy leaves. And, most importantly, Tyra picks another 13 hopefuls. As you are all well aware I am a big fan. This year my top pick is Analeigh, she is just gorgeous in a not so obvious kinda way. My least fave is Elena, she seems like she just tries to be different to get a reaction out of everyone. She was crying at the makeover because they gave her red hair-Red is hot, your boring mid-length brown mush should be falling down and thanking the Hair Pixies for fixing that nasty mane. Everyone one esle is kinda meteocre at best. I like Marjorie a great deal as well. The only one that I am a little creeped out about is Isis, she's a dude. Ok enough ANTM. PS, I am already in need of Tori and Dean, I am having some fierce withdrawls.
Anyways, I am working at an Aveda Concept Salon now (Dylan Brooke's), it is nice and a good stepping stone, there is alot of opportunity for education and growth, which I am really excited about. Additonally, I have a new friend, Eli. That takes the Austin friend count to...drum roll, please...ONE! Well, one friend that I really "hang out" with I guess you could say. She is from Baton Rouge and super cool. Shout out! The problem is, that I miss my friends from Dallas. Two come to mind automatically, you know who you are. My Monday hang outs with one, are what I miss most of all. I didn't have a snow cone all summer!
Noah started Mother's Day Out on Sept 3rd. It is so good for him and I can see that he is slowly getting more social with kids his own age. He plays with some other babies at church and stuff. I can't believe he is going to be a year old soon. Where has the past year gone? This time last year I was getting put on bedrest. Now, I am giving baths and finding cherrios in mysterious places. He is growing up so fast, and I am so not ready for it.
At work, we have started a Biggest Loser! I am really excited and ave been working out like a beast! I should start a work out blog and then I would have to blog and work out more ;).
Isaac is good, he has finally settled on Physical Therapy and we have accepted the 8 year school challenge that it will entale. I don't really see the point of him doing anything else, PT has been all he's talked about since we've met.
As for me, I am good. I am struggling right now, with missing my Mama and Daddy. Not that they lived in Dallas, anyways. The thing was we had friends that we considered family, so it was hard to notice that we didn't have family around. Now, that we don't have the company of close friends OR family, I notice how much we want them near by. I am excited about the new friends I am making at church and at work, and know that those blues will go away. Other than that I am blissful. I love my life and I am so blessed.

So I was good at blogging for like a week

Hey, sorry it's been a while, we've had a busy couple of weeks.
They are still trying to get my meds regulated to get my body working the way it is supposed to. Other than that I am good. Isaac is liking his job and has decided what he wants to got to school for. Noah is...Noah. He is the best kid in the whole world. He has this way of brightening everyone's day. He starts pre-school (Wens Only) on Sept 3rd. It was just another way I have seen how much and how fast he is growing. He is such a beautiful spirit. I am going to work Wens mornings and he is going to socialize with kids his own age. I think it will be good for him, I will have issues though.
I have to say how truely blessed we are. We have a wonderful family and all the things we need in life. Spritually, physically, and emotionally. I am so blessed to have such a wonderful family. And, friends like you, who will tune in to read my ramblings. Love ya!

I forgot! (suprise, suprise)

Ok, so...I did forget to mention my obsession with a show called "Shear Genius" I don't know who outside of hairstyling actually watches that show. They throw down all the technical terms that the general public don't understand. Kinda like the line in "Legally Blonde" where she mentions ammonium thyglocolate. Anywho, I do love it, and have even got Isaac to liking it. It's another one of my shows that he won't admit that he likes. As for Tori and Dean, he is definately not on the boat with that one. Speaking of which we had a new episode last night, so let me catch you up. So, T & D bought a new house because they are in a rental and T wanted to be out before the new baby gets here. So they have to furnish the house and move in like in 3 weeks. IMPOSSIBLE! So, they are going to look at all the decorations and furnishings and D gets really frustrated that the decisions aren't being made quickly...MEN! Don't they know these things take time? I mean decorating your first house is in the childhood dream along with outing a curtain on your head for a veil and carrying baby dolls around as actually children! Anyways, so T had a shower and threw D a "Daddy Shower" (I love those, Isaac was supposed to have one, but we could never get it pinned down). T is doing way too much for how far along she is and D is starting to get nervous that she is doing too much. They're trying to find a pre-school for Liam (which I feel for, because I am trying to find one for Noah). So, there is your T&D:HSH update! Hope you enjoyed that.
Additionally, I had an interview at a Salon yesterday. It's exactly what I pictured when I imagined working in Austin. Downtown on 6th, hip, really a cool place. I would work on Saturdays and a couple nights a week. I have another interview tomorrow, so we will see how that one goes. I am excited, I really do miss hair and would love to work slowly back into doing hair.
Working out is going good. I haven't told everyone through blog yet, but I have a problem with my thyroid, which was keeping me from loosing baby weight. Apparently, my thyroid was barely working. Which is a problem. It's good to know that there was a medical reason I had not lost a single pound since little man was born. I still haven't lost any weight, but I am toning up quite a bit. Today was good because Wednesday is "swimming day", I swim for about 30 minutes then hot tub and sauna for a while. It's really nice. Swimming is so cathartic for me. It takes me back. Love it!
Ok well, I need to go, it's getting sippy cup time, so I need to go do some shopping for the proper sippy cup. I can't believe Noah will be 8 months old on Saturday! I look at those pictures from bringing him home from the hospital and ask myself where the time has gone. Love and kisses and lots of misses!

My{obsessive}Self!

Ok so, I have a new show that I absolutely love. Before I tell you, you have to promise to love me and not judge me. Ok, so I sat down to watch the last 15 minutes of this show one day, just to satisfy curiosity. The next thing I knew a whole other episode of this show had gone by. That was it, I was officially addicted. I love this show!!! Most of all, I feel so much differently than I did more recently about the main person in this show. I kinda didn't like her, didn't dislike her, just really didn't care what she did either way. So, I bet you are wondering about my new found love for Tori Spelling aren't you? Yes, I am addicted to "Tori and Dean, Home Sweet Hollywood". I love seeing her adventures and her super cute little baby Liam (which was a name in the running for Noah). She even calls her son "Monkey" and "Little Man", how weird is that? Anyhow, I have actually grown quite fond of the show and actually have caught myself actively seeking out her book "sTORI Telling". I can't believe this happened to me. Am I so desperate to connect with the outside world that I have to cling to Tori Spelling? Is her life really that much more interesting that mine? Is it the things that I see we have in common? Is that the reason I am drawn to her? AHHHHH!!! Anyways, so I love the show and you can't change my mind, I even wish she was coming here for a book signing!
So, I got to talk with my newest best friend on the phone yesterday. It was really good. I don't know if this friend really knows how much her friendship has meant to me the last 10 or so months, I can't believe we have been friends that long now! Anyways, it was good because we actually don't talk on the phone that often, we are more of a texting and emailing kind of communication type friendship. We talk all the time when we are in person, but on the phone both of us are out of our element, so it is easier to text and email. I miss her and can't wait to see her soon.
Last Thursday PumperNikki was in town for a conference for work and we had lunch while she was in town. I took her to my favorite place her to eat...Magnolia Cafe. I take everyone there when they are visiting for the first time. It was so good to catch up and it reminded me of how much I miss her. The funny thing is, we could be away from eachother for months and when we get together it's like no time has passed at all. The sign of a good friendship!
So that''s what's been going on lately, I really am trying to get new pics of Peanut up, but we just got a new computer so we are trying to get everything moved over. Hugs, kisses and lots of misses!

My run in with the Austin PoPo's

Yeah, so everyone who knows me knows that I from time to time can have a bit of a lead foot. I really wouldn't consider it lead, more like the heavy plastic they make ear rings out of. So I was having a hard day. Noah, who was doing so well sleeping through the night in Dallas, seems to have some issues sleeping for long stretches of time in the dark hours. So, I hadn't slept very much the night before and looked a hot mess, I was running late-all kinds of things against me. Well, I was going 43 mph in a 30 mph zone, and a cop had the nerve to pull me over!!!! (I deserved to be pulled over) Anyways, so I see the undeniable flashing lights, and I pulled over like a good girl. If Noah wasn't with me I may have contemplated a chase, but I digress. I pull into a park with lots of people (i am no fool, i watch the news), and the officer gets out of his car, I stomach drops as I see him in my side mirror and turn off my radio. I roll my window down, anxious, I have heard alot about how hard the cops are here in Austin. I see...a nice older man maybe 50 or so, and say in my cutest "I'm a dunce" voice, "Hi Officer", he introduced himself and I said "I was running late to pick up my husband and had my mind elsewhere and I was speeding". He smiled and said "Well, yes, that is why I pulled you over. May I see your driver's license and insurance?" "Well, see offier, I don't have it with me, I was running out of the house and totally forgot it!" "Do you have your insurance?" With a trembling hand I fumble around my messy car, "here is my old one (expired in MAY!!!)." I looks at my registration and inspection and gives me "benefit of the doubt" since they were both just renewed and you need current insurance to do that. Alas, I give him my license number and he goes back to the interceptor to call it in. I am praying the whole time! He comes back...with...A WARNING! Heavenly Father answered the prayer of a desperate woman. A nice police officer takes pity on a strung out mother. The skies opened up and poured sunshine right on top of me. It was a good day. Anyways, I have been really good about driving since I got pregnant with Noah, and I had a little slip up, I am being careful...I may not be so smiled upon next time! With that, I say drive safe!

Monica Bang!

OK so anyone who isn't as big of a "Friends" fan as I am won't get that. Actually, Noah had a fall yesterday at church. He is so wiggly and getting so strong. He likes to bow his back! well put all that together with a dad and full hands and you get me turning around to see Noah laying on the floor. My heart dropped out of my chest, down to my stomach, fell on the floor and then made a triumphant return to my chest when we found out he was okay. We were taking the sacrament when it happened and then we took him to the hospital. He checked out okay, but he has been really cranky since "the incident". Isaac was being really hard on himself, I tried to tell him that it happens to everyone, but he doesn't believe me. I think he is finally starting to feel better. He is so hard on himself. I can't tell you what was going through my head all the time we were waiting. My brain knows that babies aren't nearly as fragile as adults, but my heart saw my little boy in pain and absolutely nothing I could do about on top of trying to console my husband. My trick was every time I thought of how horrible that fall could have been, I went to all the happy memories that had led us to that point. I saw me meeting Isaac for the first time, knowing already that he was everything I had hoped, wished and prayed for. I saw us getting engaged and married, our honeymoon. Then I saw me laying in bed the night "we" got pregnant. I went to sleep that night knowing that I was pregnant, the spirit told me clear as day that I was. I remembered feeling Noah with me before I knew I was pregnant. I felt someone else there and it was different than The Spirit (that was a feeling I will never forget). I remembered every beautiful moment I was pregnant and even some of the not so great ones. I saw how hard the last two months were and how wonderful it was to have him born healthy. I saw him doing all the amazing things he has accomplished so far. That was how I kept my composure until we finally got home and I was so grateful that he was alright. Bottom line, motherhood is the single hardest, wonderful, messy, back-breaking, beautiful thing there is in this world. When I met Isaac i didn't know that I could love someone that much, then he blessed me with Noah. Now, I love Isaac more everyday. I can't begin to tell you how much I love Noah. It is a love I can't describe. I am starting to get it, why Heavenly Father blesses us with parenthood. Seeing Noah hurt was the worst thing to date that I have experienced, I can't imagine what Heavenly Father went through as he saw his son die for the sins of an entire world and it's many generations. That experience has strengthened my testimony of our Saviour and Father's love for us.

ANTM

As I sit here with my mug of peppermint herbal tea and on my laptop feeling all philosophical (like a real writer), I can't help but ponder...is the world really ready for a full figured top model? Okay so it's not THAT serious, but I am pretty stoked that Whitney won. I don't know if I like her as a person, she seems kinda shady. I wanted her to win this whole time. I knew of all the seasons they have tried to have a full figured gal, Whitney could win. She is beautiful, so is Anya, but Whitney was striking to me. I don't even know how Fatima made it into the top three...REALLY, she looks like a pekingese on crack! I am excited to see Whitney on Regis and Kelly this morning, I am taping it, just in case something comes up. I have to run quite a few errands today. What are your thoughts? Comment me and let me know what you think, if you watch ANTM, I would love to hear what you have to say. Have fun!!!

Keeping up with the Holcomb's

For those of you who want to keep up with us, this is the blog for you. Anyone who knows me knows that I am nothing if not inconsistent. That's why the sporadic blog writing. We are all doing well. I am working at a nail salon on Saturdays and I am really enjoying the extra money and the time out of the house to myself. It is all pink and brown and girly, just the place for me to work. I like the atmosphere and my co-workers are really nice. It is a nice drama-free environment (which is nice). Noah is doing well, it is so weird to see how fast he is growing. He has been sleeping longer in his nap, I think he is going through another growth spurt. It is at nap time, I have time to blog and to do some house work. I have been feeling pretty crummy the past couple of days, I think it is allergies. Isaac is enjoying his job and he is doing really well. I am so proud of him. We have grown so much as a couple through this whole process of moving and stuff. It really has been a learning experience. Gotta run, someone woke up from a nap!!! Be back soon!

Keep Austin Weird!

Just by living here, I am doing my part.
Life so far in Austin is pretty good. It is a little lonely without our friends, but we're managing. We have been separated for two weeks, so it is pretty easy right now just to have some family time. The move out of Dallas was atrocious! The moving company tried (with a little success) to rip me off. It was so packed in the truck and my mom's car that sadly some stuff didn't move with us to Austin (i.e. the vacuum, the broom, mop and some other things). There was barely enough room for Noah in the car! Good thing, the drive went well. Then the movers here in Austin unloaded the truck no problem and didn't rip us off. We took my parents to our fave diner here in Austin, Magnolia Cafe. They loved it, although, I don't know if they loved it AS MUCH as Isaac and I. There is a special place in our heart for the Magnolia Cafe and we love the food. Saturday was filled with unpacking and we got so much done. Sunday we went to our new ward and it has already split. Apparently. they are making a new stake and we are in said stake. Other than that, we have just been getting around town as much as we can afford to GAS-$3.49!!! OUCH!!!). More updates to come, more unpacking to do. Miss all of you we left behind in Dallas. Nikki, I haven't even HAD a Dr. Pepper yet, it makes me think of you. Heather, yes, your loom is still in my car, email me your addy and I will mail it to you use raisinbrancomb@aim.com. Di, I won't get a snow cone until I see you again, I will have to hold myself over on ice cream. Loves and misses from the Holc's!

So hard to say goodbye

Today was good, I got some stuff done that I have been meaning to do for a while. I also got to go see the Warnick's. Gavie is so cute and offered up kisses with no promptings! It is so cool to see how much Elyse has grown up, she is doing such a good job and I am so proud of her. Mama Warnick loved seeing Noah and is so glad to have another grandbaby. Papa Warnick was flying so he didn't get to meet him. I love that whole family so much, they all mean so much to me.
After that I went to go eat dinner with Nikki. We went to Johnny Carino's and ate WAY too much. It was so good to see her and I am going to miss her so much. I t was good to talk to her and catch up. Then, we went to Target for one last trip...bittersweet.
I will post pics on the whole day!
Noah did go to the pedi today and you will all be happy to know that his growing is back on track!!!! Yeah!!!
I stayed out too late...9:30 and Di was worried about me. I love her, she is taking care of me since Isaac is out of town.

Di is getting her wish

Well, I have a good reason this time, we are moving and super busy.
Life without your companion is hard, I guess that's why they are meant to be there for eternity. I miss Isaac, he left this afternoon to go back to Austin. Luckily, it is only 5 more days and then Noah and I will be down there. The move is going good, we still have a lot to do, but it is cool. Last week I went home to East Texas for a little boondockin', it was great! I got to see all sorts of family and friends and they all got to meet Noah. Kenzie got fleas there like she always does when we go down there. Seriously, we could put like 15 tubes of frontline on her and she would still come back with a flea family, it is really annoying. Plus, she is kinda obsessive so she won't stop scratching even though we have killed them all. Anyways, not an exciting story, but what do you want I was in East Texas for a week. Until later, love and peace!

See I am getting better

Hey everyone. So, I feel like a slacker blogger after reading a friend/old boss' blog. Hers are filled with insights into her deepest thoughts and fears. Mine are all about trying to catch up on blogging.
With that, I decided to share something a little more personal with you. Now I am in an inner struggle. I have accomplished something so amazing, so beautiful, more feminine than shoes and clothes and pretty hair. I have given life to another human being, and for that, I need to pat myself on the back. Yet, I am plagued with my new body...or rather, my OLD body. You see, some of you may have known me as "big brandi" and saw an amazing transformation to "skinny brandi" (ok so, I wasn't skinny but 145 ain't bad). I had lost an astonishing 70 lbs. I had never felt more confident and sexy. Now, after having Noah, I am almost back to my old weight (not as big as I was). I have some vacation (before Noah "with me" I gained about 10 lbs in San Fran). I have baby weight to lose (about 30 lbs) and finally, I have bed rest weight to lose. I had done so well through my pregnancy, I had eaten well and worked out a little. I would not trade the experience of Noah or being with him for that precious nine months for anything, but I would gladly trade the weight and emotional baggage from the weight. I know I need to give myself time, but it is so hard. I miss being fit and sexy. I am excited to lose the weight and I am trying to be creative to find times to work out.
Bottom Line...I need to get on the ball and stop whining. I can't wait to have my smokin' hot body back. Until then, "I be up in the gym just workin' on my fitness....Brandilicious!"

Atleast it's not 3 months

So, I haven't posted in a while, but atleast it hasn't been 3 months. We are all doing well here. Big News...we are finally moving to Austin. Isaac will be starting his job on April 14th and we will be heading down on the 26th. It will be hard to not have him here for a couple of weeks, but it is a small price to pay. We are really excited. We have an apartment down there and will be making a little more money, so it's going to be really nice.
In other news, Noah went to the doctor last Tuesday. He isn't growing at the rate they want him to, so they are going to watch him until his next appointment. If he is still not growing the way they want, they will run some tests. Personally, I think he is just fine. There is nothing wrong with a small baby. He is still really healthy. He is starting on solids now, so that has been really fun.
Anywho, hope you enjoy!

At the avice of my husband

I have decided to blog more so that I don't have to write a novel every time. We are doing well. Last night we had Angel and Diana over for chicken parm and a movie, oh and hair. It was really good, I didn't really get to watch the movie, but I will later. My sister came up, she's been doing that slot lately and we love it. Tonight we are going on our "date night" for our anniversary and Monday we are gonna spend the day relaxing. We are really excited. Noah has been so vocal lately, he "talks" back and likes to "talk" to people that we see in stores and stuff. He is going to be a social butterfly, I feel.

Tuesday, March 4, 2008

Could I wait any longer to post something??

Well, I guess I could, but it was too hard once I got the new pics downloaded.
I also have a couple of minutes on my hands while Noah is napping. Life with Noah is better than I could've ever imagined. We had such a good marriage before he was born, I had no idea how much having Noah would make it even better. He has made Isaac and I appreciate each other more than we already did and has truly blessed our lives. We have been so busy lately. Noah is getting so big and he is getting smarter [and cuter] everyday. He is learning so much so fast. He is rolling from tummy to back and holding his head up pretty well. He smiles and laughs and sucks his fingers. He just never ceases to amaze me. He loves to be held all the time, which is kinda hard. He also has started fighting sleep (he just knows we are gonna have a party while he is asleep), but he does sleep through the night, so I can't complain. Other than that not much is going on. We are adjusting well and enjoying our new life.
Isaac and I will be celebrating our 2nd Anniversary next Monday, so we are excited about that. Isaac took off of work, so we are gonna go have a fun day to ourselves. Hope all of you enjoy the post and the new pics of our little guy.
