Hadrien's Nappy Nap



Hadrien received a small Pooh Bear blanket/rattle/teether at his baby shower and we have been getting him to play with it lately. So I walked in on the little mister taking his nap today and found the cutest thing in the whole world....damn I love kids...they are way too cute, God made them just right!!! (This stuff definetly makes up for the nights when he is fussy.) :-)

First Outing

This is Hadrien at the Renissance Festival...we were taking a rest and playing/talking! It was his first time in his stroller and his first major outing...we had a blast and luckily the weather was perfect. Hadrien is a very strong boy and likes to put weight on his legs and hold his head up all the time...he would take off and get into everything if he could!!!

The GREAT Uncle Rico...


This is Baby Hadrien and his God-father...who is OBSESSED with Superman...just kidding Mike!!! If the outfit wasn't so warm Hadrien would wear it every Sunday just for his Uncle Rico...too cute aren't they!

April Visit

So this past weekend Krista and her family came to Arizona for a long awaited visit. We had a blast, the babies (Hadrien and Maverick) were introduced to each other and they loved playing...Maverick is too cute! We bbq'd and almost everyone made it...we missed Preston and Arin, but there's always next time and we were thinking of them the whole time!

Grandma Kathy was in Baby Heaven!!! Maverick loves touching, talking (squealing) and playing with Hadrien...both of them are sooooo busy and neither one wanted to sleep (afraid that they were going to miss out on something)...It's awesome that all of us girls are experiencing parenthood, there is nothing like it...and soon John will join the ranks!
When the day is over and everyone has gone home...boy are we TIRED!!! Hadrien loves his little Pooh Bear blanket and Mom leaves him in his car seat so as not to wake him...it was a much needed nap!
So those are a few pics from the trip, I know they are all baby pics but those are the best ones since they grow so fast...it was an awesome visit and all of us really had a GREAT time!!! All of us here in AZ sure miss all you out in CA...love ya!!

Getting big...


This is a more recent photo of Hadrien and Daddy...it was Hadrien's first time in his baby carrier! He's not quite big enough here but he really loves being able to see what we are doing from this front view...plus it's easier for mom to get some stuff done during the day since he LOVES being held!

Just getting started...

Hello everyone...we are just getting this blogging thing down, so please be patient as we try to find the time to update w/ pics and stuff...Andy and I are doing great...the baby is absolutely wonderful and getting big (it seems like he grows every time I turn around!) Hadrien definitely keeps us both busy, but I wouldn't trade it for anything in the world! Speaking of which he's waking up from his nap...will definitely get more on here soon! Love you all!!

Family

The family endures because it offers the truth of mortality and immortality within the same group. The family endures because, better than the commune, kibbutz, or classroom, it seems to individualize and socialize its children, to make us feel at the same time unique and yet joined to all humanity, accepted as is and yet challenged to grow, loved unconditionally and yet propelled by greater expectations. Only in the family can so many extremes be reconciled and synthesized. Only in the family do we have a lifetime in which to do it. -Letty Cottin Pogrebi
