ROLL OVER!!!


NEWS FLASH!!!!
Dixon has just rolled over from his stomach to his back~ He is AMAZING!

This picture was the end result. :)

Back to reality (kind of)


I mean really...Could you leave this face?

Tomorrow is the day I have been dreading for the past 6 weeks and 4 days...I am going back to school! I know, I know it's only for 4 days...but still it is devastating! I can not imagine being away from Dixon ALL day. For the past 46 days I have been living and breathing him. Now I am expected to leave him for 10 whole hours?? While I have been wallowing in self pitty for the past week, I think it would help to remember all of the things I have to be grateful for...

I am grateful...

That I have a baby who is so happy and healthy that he can be without me for 10 hours. 

That I have a husband who is absolutely thrilled about having a "daddy day."

That all of our parents are ecstatic about the thought of having him all to themselves for a whole day. 

That I have a job where I had 46 days paid maternity leave. 

That after 4 days I will be able to have almost 3 amazing months home with my little guy.

That even though I may worry...Dixon will probably be just as perfect and happy as if I was there with him. 

That I will get to see my co workers and the kids at Stowe before we all leave for summer. 

That after a day of work...I will get to come home to the most beautiful baby in the world. 

Ok...I think I can make it 4 days! :)

Dr. Johnson


WE were so lucky to have Dr. Johnson deliver Dixon. 
We could not have asked for a better doctor! 

At My 6 week check up he gave Dixon this little shirt....


 
Thank you Dr. Johnson!!! :)

Mr. Green Thumb


Lately Dixon has been trying to find his thumb,
I think he might be a little confused! :)

Best buddies...


Everyone that knows us knows that we LOVE our Lady dog. We got her the week after we moved into our house and she is absolutely prefect. So, many times when we run into people they say, "What does Lady think of him?" The truth is she loves him. She has a dog bed by his crib and we will find her in there in the middle of the night. She gets up for every feeding. When he is crying at his changing table, she will scratch at my leg, like she is saying, "Do something!" We will see if this friendship continues as Dixon gets big enough to pester her...but for now...she adores him. :)
