11 month picture

This was the worst picture session ever... the photographer was terrible (customer service wise)! Good thing I didn't have to smile. The photo shoot was only 5 minutes, good thing Nathaniel can smile!!!

My sweet boy smiling... even under the weather

Nathaniel was feeling bad just before we left for Mexico. He had a terrible runny nose and was really not into playing at all... so Daddy let him just lay on his chest. It was so sweet I took a picture. Then Ken said "Hooray for Momma!" and Nathaniel sat up clapped his hands and then realized he was too tired, so he laid back down. We did it a couple of times... it was sooo cute! But eventually we let him get some rest and thankfully he was better in a few days and able to have a fun visit with Oma/Papa while we were in Mexico.

A couple of pictures of Mexico

Despite how sick I was, we did get a couple of shots on the camera of the wedding which was absolutely gorgeous!

Nathaniel's weekend with Oma/Papa

Guess what Oma taught Nathaniel while we were in Mexico!!!! Other than a little mischeif he was a really good boy and actually slept from 6:30pm to 7:30am!!!! He was on his best behavior and hardly missed us. He took good naps. Ate his food. Played with his toys. Mom and Dad said they would be up for watching him again sometime :-) That's great, because I still need a good nights sleep!


And I left strick instructions on no sugar/no sweets for Nathaniel. I can only hope they kept their word after seeing this picture!

Home sweet home!

I love being home. I love being in the USA. But most of all I love seeing my sweet sweet little boy smiling at me! Our Mexico trip was a bust :-( I literally spent the whole time either on the floor of the bathroom or in bed. On Thursday after checking in we went and grabbed a bite to eat at a recommended place in the Marina. About 2 hours later I was vommitting and had diarehha. I know that might be too gross to post. I wont put any more details. That lasted for the next 48 hours :-( We missed almost all the wedding events... including the sunset cruise, zip lineing in the jungle, hanging out at the pool, the rehearsal dinner. I was lucky to make it to the wedding and even then I was in the last chair in the back row in case and emergency exit was needed. I felt terrible the whole time I was there. The weather was nice... around 80 degrees. I was inside the whole time. Lame.

Off to Mexico...

Nathaniel is safe and sound with OMA.... off to Mexico bright and early tomorrow!
