Some updated photos

The first photo he climbed into Sammys cage and closed the door.

2nd photo he has learned to get on the couch by himself and he is very proud.

3rd photo is at Isabella's 1st birthday

4th is a normal day but I thought he was cute with his daddys hat on.

5th photo I thought was funny. I guess he does not like the shoes he got.

Just some random pictures

First Hair cut and Trip.

The pictures are in reverse I will have to fix it another time. If you look at them from bottom to top they tell the story more. The bottom pic being the morning we leave for Cali. The next one is before haircut and the crying one is after. The top pic is Nick with his Grandma in Cali.

First Birthday

I am way behind on updating. Seems time just got away from me. On April 21, 2009 Nick turned 1!! We took him to the aquarium with my neighbors and their 2 girls, Faith and Brook. And Candice and Dustin with their little girl Isabella. All the children had a blast and enjoyed the sites. They all fell asleep as soon as we left the parking lot. We came back to our home for cake. I made a baseball cake and a small baseball cake for Nick to smash into. At first he did not like having the icing on his fingers. He threw most of the cake to the floor. The next day I took him to Penney's for his 1yr shots. He had his one year appointment the 24Th and he weighed 22.9 and was 29.5inches long. His head was 19. He only got one of his shots because of his reaction to eggs we had to do a blood draw to see if he is allergic before they can administer the shots. I am hoping he is not allergic. He is really walking more and more. He walks about 40% of the time now. That is all for now!

Changing feedings

Just a quick post about his new feedings. We are attempting to cut down n some of his formula. Plus the Dr. wanted us to try and get rid of the bottle. So he told us to put the good stuff in a cup like formula or juice and water in his bottle. He said Nicholas would take not like having the water in his bottle and choose the good stuff. I should have known this would not work with him but I gave it a shot. So I put some juice in his cup and water in the bottle. Of course big struggle there was noway he was taking that cup. So I offered the bottle he he took it and drank every bit of the water. So it boils down to he doesn't care whats in the bottle only that its a bottle. I have managed though to eliminate one formula feeding which was my goal. Also he has 5 teeth now. 3 top ones and the 2 bottom front teeth. I hope to post some new pictures this week. I am going to be taking the little guy to the park for the first time this coming weekend. Weather permitting of course.

Guests

This weekend Nicholas had his Aunt Anne, Uncle Ryan, and Grandma C come to visit. The visit went very well. He was a bit apprehensive at first wondering who the strangers were in his home but soon came around and enjoyed them. The visit was short but was a wonderful time. We can't wait to visit again! Also in the past few days he has really starting to pick up the word no. It is quite funny but I try hard not to laugh.

3 teeth, 2 more coming

Nicholas has 3 teeth now. I knew he had been teething but I had been waiting for one of the 2 top front teeth. Who would of thought that his 3rd tooth would be a 2nd incisor on top. The other 2 to be coming in is the other 2nd incisor and one of his cuspids. A bit out of order but then a lot of things he does is out of order!
