Weekend Fun!

It is really amazing most people tell me how much Xavier looks like me and nothing like his dad.
Yeah right! Look at that cute little mini-me of Jake!
He's our thoroughbred and he definitely did not pick Mine that Bird to win the Derby yesterday!

I love my new Mom camera!! It takes such great pictures.
I try to snap a couple pics at least every other day!
Here is the beautiful bride to be Jen

The new Mr and Mrs Trey McFarland!
So cute! The wedding was awesome, short and sweet ceremony followed by a very fun reception at the Mavris downtown. The Mavris is an old restored warehouse by the train tracks. It was so cool!
Congratulations Trey and Jen, hope you have fun in Cabo!

So I have not totally avoided public places but I admit I did go out and buy up all kinds of hand sanitizer and clorox wipes. A school in our area/neighborhood is closed this week due to a possible case of H1N1. The other case in the city is near my sister's house. What are the odds we each have a nearby school with cases! Only us!
I have also made a new Knott house rule of removing shoes at the door and washing hands! I started to think about what all our dirty shoes do in a day, each and every day, and then thought about when Xavier starts to crawl and just the thought of duck poo, gum, gasoline, spit and who knows what else on the bottom of our shoes transfering to the carpet or floors in my house did not sit well with me! And the hand washing, well that should be pretty self explanatory with an almost 3 month old!
Almost 3 months! Where has the time gone?
Xavier pretty much has full head control. His dad practices sitting up every day! He loves his baby Einstein play mat and just stares at the blinking star and has started to grab all the things dangling from above. Today he slept in his swing for 2 hours! He is starting to sleep in his crib more and more and has made it in there a couple nights! He has also been sleeping anywhere from 10-11pm to 4:30-6am for almost the last 2 weeks!
Thanks to both grandparents and aunts for watching Xavier this weekend while Jake and I went to Tren's wedding, we had a great time!

I had the same thoughts about shoes on the carpet when I noticed worms in our garage when it rained EWWWW! So we TRY to make it a point to have no shoes on our carpet also.

Thats great X is starting to sleep longer AND in his crib!! I bet you are finally getting some good sleep now:)

Have to say that X does look like daddy a bit more than mommy! But, that can change :) Looks like you guys had a fun weekend! Happy 1st Mother's Day! Enjoy yourself! xoxo
