Umm...sorry, things have been busy :)

So here are some picts from the last month. So so sorry, I just don't have much time between school, mommy duties and everything else but here we go. Trey is talking or baby babbling all the time. He is getting so big. The last time I checked he was 12.1lbs, it is hard to believe that he was 2lbs 10oz when he was born. We are officially on lock down for RSV and Flu season. Here on some websites that will give you all some info so I stop sounding like the over protective first time mommy.

How a preemie mom is chosen

~How Preemie Moms Are Chosen~*~(Erma Bombeck)

Did you ever wonder how the mothers of premature babies are chosen? Somehow, I visualize God hovering over Earth, selecting hisinstruments for propagation with great care and deliberation. As heobserves, he instructs his angels to take notes in a giant ledger."Armstrong, Beth, son. Patron Saint, Matthew.Forrest, Marjorie, daughter. Patron Saint, Celia.Rutledge, Carrie, twins. Patron Saint...give her Gerard. He's used toprofanity."Finally, he passes a name to an angel and smiles."Give her a preemie." The angel is curious. "Why this one, God?She's so happy.""Exactly," smiles God."Could I give a premature baby a mother who knows no laughter? Thatwould be cruel.""But does she have the patience?" asks the angel."I don't want her to have too much patience, or she'll drown in a seaof self-pity and despair.Once the shock and resentment wear off, she'll handle it.I watched her today. She has that sense of self and independence sorare and so necessary in a mother.You see, the child I'm going to give her has a world of its own.She has to make it live in her world, and that's not going to be easy.""But Lord, I don't think she even believes in you."God smiles. "No matter, I can fix that. This one is perfect She hasjust the right amount of selfishness."The angel gasps, "Selfishness?! Is that a virtue?"God nods. "If she can't separate herself from the child occasionally,she will never survive.Yes, here is a woman whom I will bless with a child less than perfect.She doesn't know it yet, but she is to be envied.She will never take for granted a spoken word.She will never consider a step ordinary.When her child says momma for the first time,she will be witness to a miracle and know it.I will permit her to see clearly the things I see--ignorance, cruelty, prejudice--and allow her to rise above them.She will never be alone.I will be at her side every minute of every day of her lifebecause she is doing my work as surely as she is here by my side.""And what about her Patron Saint?" asks the angel, his pen poised inthe air.
God smiles. "A mirror will suffice.

It has been a while...Sorry ;)

Fun in the exersaucer

AAAHHHHAHA!!!! the elusive smile...gotch ya!

First trip to the Louisville Zoo, this is how Trey stacks up against a gorilla!First time in the baby carrier...ZzzzzzZZZzzzz Question of the night: How do we have Friday night Wii Frisby Golf comption when the baby won't sleep? Answer: He always falls asleep in the carier!

Boy oh boy, this mom things takes a TON of time and energy (LOL). We have a good schdule going on so now that I am in school I have time to study and stuff....also, being at home is nice. I like having adult time but I LOVE spending time with Trey and cooking dinner and all the 'housewife' type stuff. So, night school works out really well for me because he is bedding down around the time I leave. I really don't feel like I am missing anything..

So, wow, Trey was 11lbs 4oz on September 15th. He got his second set of shots :( but it was funny because he had to get 3 shots, two in the right leg and one in the left. When she got him with the first one he looked at me like "WTF" the second shot his bottom lip started quivering and the third shot he wailed but like it was a total surprise...I described it best in the vidio I took..He really didn't expect it...sorry I know it sounds mean but I laughed. Picked him up and said "tell me all about the mean lady ! " and he started babbling away as if he was trying to tell me this horrible story. Freaking HILLIRAIOUS! I didn't have the heart to even vocalize the fact that his RSV Syngsis shot had been approved for every month from October to March :(,bad mommie!

He is on target for most of his milestones and several are for his actual age not his adjusted age...AWESOME!!! Pushing up while on his belly is a 4-5mth milestone..Yippie!

So, here are some picts that we have. I have a ton but this is all the time I have today!
