Felipe's Half Birthday

Today is Felipe's 6 month birthday....

Yesterday I decided to try to get some professional photos taken of Felipe... It had been quite difficult all the other times that I taken him to Sears. He would always throw a tantrum when they were trying to photograph him but this time it was different. He cooperated completely with the lady and was all smiles for her. Click here to see some of the photos

We are not planning anything special for this special day but I will be getting together tonight with Amanda to start on Felipe's scrapbook. Let's see how much I can get done.

I will be back on Monday after I get back from Felipe's 6 month checkup.

What an exhausting weekend...

This past weekend was very exhausting for Adrian and I. On Saturday Adrian started a new job so I went shopping with Felipe...

We had a costume party at night and I still was missing part of my costume... Long story short I couldn't find anything so I had to modify my costume.

At around 8:30 pm we headed over to Amanda's house to drop-off some socks and shoes that she needed to borrow for Matthew's baptism. Then from there we went to Jayme's house to his Super Heroes Costume Birthday Party. Everyone had to go dressed as a Super Heroe so Adrian went as Spiderman (Black Spiderman T-shirt with jeans), Felipe was baby Spiderman (Full Spiderman Costume) and I was Batgirl (Black Batman T-shirt with jeans). We stayed there until like 2:30 in the morning and my adorable son was enjoying the party until this time... He took his little naps during the party but he didn't want to miss anything.

When we got home, at around 3:00, I put him in his crib and got ready for bed. He woke up at around 5:40 for his milk and then went right to sleep. Luckily he slept until 8:40 am (he usually wakes up at 7 in the morning) and I got up to play with him.

At around noon we started getting ready to go to Matthew's baptism which was at 1pm. Adrian was the Godfather so we needed to make sure we were on time.

After the ceremony we all went to the Dufau residence for a small gathering. We ate, we watched football and we just hung out.

By the time 7pm rolled around we (Amanda, Eric, Adrian and I) were all tired so we went home. I thought I would get home and put Felipe to sleep but he had other plans... He did not go to sleep until about 11pm.

All I can say is I need a vacation from my weekend.

I've loosened the Umbilical Cord a bit

Last night I decided that it was time to loosen the "Umbilical Cord" a bit... Felipe Ignacio slept the whole night in his crib. I know that I should have done this a while ago considering he is going to be 6 months in a couple of weeks but I just couldn't bring myself to release him into his own room.

It went well after we got the monitor set-up and the crib ready for him. I thought I would have a horrible night keeping an eye on the monitor screen but when I realized that he was just in the next room I relaxed a bit and slept.
