WATERFUN

Baby and Mommy update

Thought I should probably let everyone know who follows this blog....since it had been such a long time since I wrote anything that Miss Marcello is growing big and strong. She loves to kick and kick and move positions alot...Vinny did not move this much and is really active...so maybe she will be the opposite. Wishful thinking I am thinking...but still hopefull. She has been causing a little problems for mommy. At approx 18 weeks I must have hurt my back that just kept getting worse, even after massages that I did for approx a month. I started physical therapy a little over 3 weeks ago and it has made a huge difference. My pelvis and hips were completely out of line and now I go for weekly alignments and am doing much better. The pain is still there but bearable. Then just a couple of weeks ago...my heart started feeling like it was racing and pounding even when I was sitting there doing nothing. My heart rate was elevated. They did an EKG and Echo that were normal other than a resting heartrate of 90-105. So now they wanted a holter monitor done...which I am currently doing. I am confident that it will be normal...just pregnancy taking a rough beating on me...but there it is for you all.

Vincent learning how to dress

Vincent has now decided he no longer wants us to dress him...so it takes even longer in the morning and at night to dress him.
Vincent dressed himself...you like?
Chasing him around trying to fix his shirt...

Happy so I let him run around for awhile like this.
He was so happy when I let him dress himself...the first time he got his pants on the correct way but later in the day...not so much they were on backwards...but oh so cute, so I left them. He hasn't quit figured out how to put his hands through the sleeves on his own yet...so that as far as the shirt goes. Later that night when he got ready for bed he had his pj bottoms on and not only 1 but 2 shirts pulled up..so that the neck was on his waist with one leg through the sleeve...not shirt required I guess. He is growing up so fast...

Vincent's 1st Professional Haircut

Vincent went and got his first BIG BOY professional haircut for Unkie Jacob and Aunt Carrie's wedding. He actually impressed both Chris and I and was a perfect little angel for the haircut...don't ask me why? They placed him in this fun little car that made sounds and let him watch a DVD...CARS is what he chose...with a little help from us. He loved the movie...so yes we are purchasing the movie now. Vincent getting ready...Vroom Vroom
The stylist letting Vincent touch the razor before she put it to his head. He thought it was pretty cool, and wanted to play with it.

Watching CARS, not really bothered wtih what is going on!


Cutting all the baby hair off...time is flying by

Trimming up the backside...getting a haircut similar to Daddy's not as short yet...otherwise Vincent would look bald again!

Checking things out!
