Thanksgiving in Aggieland

We had a great Thanksgiving! We were invited to a big Aggie tailgate with my brother-in-law's family in College Station. Those folks know how to have a good time! It took Baby George a minute to get used to all the noise and people, but he was a real trooper. It was great to spend the day with my family and I'm so thankful for the close relationship I have with them.

Cousin Elliot! She only weighs about 8 pounds more than Baby G :)

Daddy & Baby

Gosh, I love these two. I always knew George would be a great daddy, but it's so amazing to actually watch him become a father. He loves spending time with our sweet boy. He was so supportive of my decision to quit working to stay home with baby G and works so hard to make that possible. I'm truly thankful for him and couldn't ask for a better partner to go through life with.

Baby G is a good little cuddler.

Buddies.

George came walking into the kitchen with a baby in a bowl.

My Georges. So sweet.

Baby George is 12 weeks old today!

Sometimes I still can't believe he's here. These last 12 weeks have been an amazing learning experience. The most important thing I've learned about motherhood so far is to be FLEXIBLE. Things don't always go as planned and I just have to be okay with that because at the end of the day we have a happy, healthy and very chunky baby boy.

He's over 16 pounds and 25 inches now and in the 97th percentile for height, weight and head size. He's not quite sleeping through the night, but I feel like he's getting pretty close. That's something that this tired momma is really looking forward to. I'm also chasing after this ever elusive daily routine. His napping is still really frequent and somewhat unpredictable which makes it hard to plan the day, but that's another thing that will even out in the coming months. Overall, he's a very content and smiley baby and I absolutely love spending my days with him.

Here are a few of my favorite pictures from the last twelve weeks:

I'm Blogging!

Since we're three instead of two now, I've decided to start blogging so that our family and friends can keep up with the goings on of the Baldauf Family. I feel like the first posting is the hardest so I'm going to skip it and just post a picture instead. 


...until next time!


XOXO,
