2 months...

So Devon is 2 months and a week...but today was his 2 month appointment due to a mis understanding between myself and the nurse at my Dr's office. Devon is a healthy little babe at 16lb & 9oz!!! And I am so lucky that there are no health concerns at this point for either Devon or myself.

Walk for the cure

Yesterday I walked for the cure. For those of you who don't know 4 years ago my mom was diagnosed with breast cancer. She fought the battle hard and kicked cancers a#@. My mom is a survivor! She is also an inspiration. She not only beat cancer but has changed the way she treats people and the way she lives her life everyday. She decided that she was going to make he experience with cancer a positive one.

As some people know my mom and I have not always been the best of friends, there were times when I am sure we could have killed each other. But as I have grown up and my mom's perspective on life has changed (perhaps she grew up a little as well???) I find that my mom has become one of my favorite people and one of my bestfriends. She is a fabulous grandmother to Devon (as well as her other grandsons) and Devon is going to grow up knowing his Grandma loves him and adores him. This is why I walk for the cure...so that other people will have the chance to change the way they live their life after surviving, so that others will have the chance for their mom to become their best friend, and so that grandkids everywhere will be able to grow up knowing their grandmothers. I LOVE YOU mom and am thankful that you got a chance to become one of my bestfriends.

Already A New York Yankees Fan

Because Daddy & Grandpa are HUGE New York Yankees fans...





It has already been decided that my little babes is one too. I still think it would have been funnier if I had bought the little guy a Red Sox onesie! Thanks Amber-Jane for taking some awesome pictures!


Devon's 2 month appointment is on tuesday, it was originally set for Sept 27th but there was a misunderstanding between me and the nurse so I didn't make it and had to re schedule. I am anxious to see how much he weighs as he eats CONSTANTLY and I am a little concerned that perhaps he is eating too much. He has caught up to Jace who is 6 weeks his senior and wasn't a small baby by any means when he was born. I also am concerned because Devon's feet are always Clammy even when it is cool. He's a sweaty little monster.

I think he may be teething although it seems a little early for that, but he is a little fussier than usual and has been drulling like crazy. I hope that this faze passes quickly and he gets back to his happy self. It breaks my heart when he cries and up until now I have been able to figure out how to fix it every time!


On a side note: I am done all my Christmas shopping except for Duane and whichever sibling/spouse of sibling Duane and I draw names for!!! That means All the parents, kids and Devon are done. And YES I am almost done the wrapping, it's a new record for me this year! Woo Hoo!
