Wilson's 2nd Month Home- May 2013

 I had to return to work on May 6th to finish out the last month of school so Dave stayed home with Wilson until May 30th.  Dave's mom and Grandma Wilson came to help from May 7th to the 10th.  We appreciate all their help.

Wilson has started to like bath time.

However, Wilson still doesn't like his swing.

During the month of May, Wilson was able to meet some more cousins.

 Cousin Brody and baby Wilson.

 Cousin Taylie was so excited to feed Wilson.

 Sometimes when Dave would hold Wilson, he would squirm and move his body so that his face was planted in Dave's armpit.  We got a good chuckle out of this!

What a cutie pie!

At the end of May, Dave brought Wilson to my school so my students and fellow co-workers could  meet him.  My students were so excited.  As a side note, many of my students brought in gifts for baby Wilson during the month.  I was surprised and very thankful for their kindness and generosity.  Dave took a couple of pictures of my class with Wilson and me.  They turned out so cute, but I can't post them because I do not have permission from the parents to do so.

I am so thankful for Dave and what a good father he is.  He did such a wonderful job during the month of May.  I am so thankful Dave has the type of employment that allowed him to take off a month of work and be Mr. Mom. 

 

 

Wilson 5 Weeks Old- May 3rd

My friend Emyla is such a talented photographer.  She came to our home and spent a whole hour with Wilson taking pictures.  She was so good with him.  I am posting just a few of the cute pictures she took.

One of my students mom made several cute hats for baby Wilson as a gift.  I thought a picture of Wilson in this monkey hat would be so cute, and I was so right!

My mom and Dave's mom threw me a baby shower on April 27th in my hometown.

I actually picked the decorations for the baby shower.  I thought the blue whale decorations were so cute.  There were even matching plates, cups, and napkins.

My mom found this quote, framed it, and displayed it for the shower.  I think it is such a cute quote and so true.

We served lemon water, cinnamon rolls, muffins, mini cream puffs, fresh fruit, and mini candy bars.

 The baby shower was an open house so guests were able to come, eat, visit, see/hold the baby, and leave as they needed to.

 Dave's aunt and cousin drove all the way from Kamas to attend the baby shower.

 My Aunt Tricia and I spending some time together.  My Aunt Tricia is from Scotland.  My cousin met her there when he was on his mission.  He set her up with my Uncle Richard.  Tricia's mom back in Scotland is such a sweetheart.  She is Catholic and has been lighting candles and saying prayers for Dave and me to be placed with a baby.  We are so thankful for her prayers and faith in a loving God who answers prayers.

 Charlotte and me.  Charlotte's daughter adopted her children so we had a great visit about the blessings of adoption.

We received so many gifts from family and friends.  We are so blessed.  Baby blankets, clothes, baby toys, baby wash and lotion, wash cloths and towels are just some of the gifts we were given.

On May 4th my visiting teachers threw me another baby shower so members of our ward could attend.  We played games, had treats, and then I opened presents.  Wilson was greatly blessed at this shower too.

Yummy treats.

 My visiting teacher, Sister Griswold, gave me a dinosaur diaper cake.  It was so cute.  Wilson loves the stuffed green dinosaur that came inside of it.
