A few things....

Our good friends, the Lloyds, made us some vinyl wall art. I had some black and white ones, and thought I would make it look cohesive with some paint. I think it turned out pretty well....
Ok, this isn't the best picture but you get the idea. And this leads me to the fact that we don't have a real camera anymore. I am so bummed. My dad had given us one a bit after Van was born and it died on us a few months back. It wont hold it's charge. We even bought a new battery but sadly it was no good. So all we have are our camera phones which do not take good pics as you can see. Hopefully soon we will get a new one so that I can capture some good shots.
Next, we were walking around after grocery shopping one day and stumbled upon a restaurant with Van's name....we thought we have to get a picture of it! If you look close Derek looks very uncomfortable, all to get a good pic--what a guy!
Lastly, I just had this cute picture of Weston in my phone and thought I should post it. What a sweet baby he is.

So I guess I will do a bit of a Weston update. He is 3 months now and wearing 6 month clothes (yes, he is huge). He is an easy going baby and sleeps very well--I've even gotten him to fall asleep on his own. This may not sound like much to you, but to me it is HUGE. I had this extensive routine of putting Van to sleep...in my arms first then transferring him to his crib (Arg, it was horrible). So yea for me for doing it right this time. Like I said before, I want to help this baby to have good sleep habits.

I think that's all for now. Ta ta...as my mom would say.

Cute wall art! I love Weston's face and chubby babies are the best!

Awe thanks--and thanks so much for giving them to us. My intention was to use all of the animals, but when I taped up the squares, I realized that I didn't have enough room. Whoops. I will have to put the other animal pics somewhere else.
