Daddy Daycare

If it is Monday, it is Daddy Day at our house! Q enjoyed a day with daddy while mommy was away at work. The boys hit up the mall and Q came home with something called "crawlers". Apparently The Gap sells pants for babes on the move. Q is really interested in being mobile and I sure hope he doesn't get the hang of it for a few months. Ha, a mama can dream!

PUJ Tub

A few months back I was selected to be an official tester of a very cool new baby product, The Puj Tub! With everything we have had going on the review didn't get written but man do I love this tub. And they picked ME and my darling boy (see previous post of my pudgy man) to test out their light, slim, easy to store new tub.

Well, Quin loves it, I love it and that is all that matters. The Puj Tub claims to fit a baby up to 6 months. Quin is now 5 months but it appears that he is off the growth charts. Guess what? As long as the sink is big enough the Puj Tub is perfect. We have also found a variety of other uses for it. Yours truly has used it for myself in the tub as a slip-proof back rest. Once again, it is perfect!

Pictures are coming so stayed tuned!

Q's first Photo Session

Nanna came this week and we surprised Daddy with pics of Q. He was in such a great mood and had a great time. Of course now I want ALL of them! Keep in mind there were some great blackmail pictures that I will be able to use when Q is older!

The one above is my personal favorite. It really captured his personality and the fact that he is wearing the hat that Daddy bought him when he was 6 days old makes it even better.

I could just eat him up!

Yes, my son has man-boobs! He is a VERY healthy boy.

Just relaxing ...

My sweet little Quin. Mommy loves you more than you know. I hope you always have your sparkly eyes.

Story Time for little Q

This afternoon mommy took me to Story Time at the Carlsbad library. Before she made me sing silly songs, read books about puppies and clap my hands, we had coffee with some of my friends. My friends are all from my Babies In Bloom Breastfeeding Support Group. Because of my friends (and their mommy's) my mommy kept breastfeeding me. If you notice, I am one of the biggest, chubbiest babes in the lineup! Keep in mind that I am the youngest!

My friends (from left to right) Angelina, Pete, Enzo and ME!

I have been growing like a mad man! Mommy weighed me yesterday and I was 16lbs, 9oz. I have officially doubled my weight but height is not on my side (have you seen my parents?). My four month birthday is coming up soon. Have I really been around that long? I'll tell my mom to update my stats after my 4 month checkup.

Mommy is having a hard time coming to terms with going back to work. She wants to stay home with me so we can do fun things like Story Time, walking with my friends, going to coffee, going to the movies and so many other things. I want her to be with my all-day everyday too.

With love,

Baby Q

Q's 1st Christmas Party

A few weeks ago we took Quin to his first ever Christmas party! We met Katie, Brian and Quin's girlfriend, Lilah, at the party. We also got pictures taken with Surfer Santa.

Merry Christmas!

The Dream Team

Here we stand! The Baby Q Dream Team was all together on Thursday night at Babies in Bloom - along with Ricki Lake too!

From left to right:
Kayti Ricker - Doula Extraordinaire
Jo Kilburn - Hypnobirthing Instructor
Liza Janda - Mama-to-be Yoga Instructor

All of these ladies played an amazing role in the planning, pregnancy and birth of Baby Q. I was so happy to have all of them together in the same place with Q.

Q's 1st visit with Dr. Jack

Quin and I went to the chiropractor today. We both were so relaxed when he left, so relaxed that we came home and took a nap!

We love Dr. Jack! His first reaction "he is SOLID". Yes my petite little son is 10lbs and counting. He is outgrowing his newborn clothes and that makes this mama sad.
