11 Weeks


Freddie, you love those hands. The tips of a few of your fingers are peeling and I am sure it because you suck them so much!

You are making more and more sounds. I also love it when you respond to our sounds. I think the next few weeks should be lots of fun with your exploring your voice and becoming more responsive.

Sleepy boy, about to go down for a nap


You got your very own gym membership this week, so as soon as your swim diapers arrive, we'll be at the pool. We'll also see how I feel about possibly leaving you with someone else at the childcare center so I can lift weights for an hour or so.


I think your eyes are getting darker and will soon be brown but your Papi disagrees. Your hair is getting redder for sure and Charlie thinks you are well on your way to being the red headed class clown.

You are always sticking that tongue out. Wondering if you're part snake!

I am enjoying spending all day with you and seeing you take in the world around you. Your eyes are so wide open when we go somewhere new. You seemed to be in awe of the racks and racks of colors at Macy's. I am a bit overwhelmed in the department store too, don't worry, you'll get used to it.

Pulling your head away from the pillow!

We need to get you on that tummy more but you are so resistant. I keep looking at those developmental milestones and think you're right on target for everything except those needing to be built through tummy time, the most notable being lifting that head way up! You'll get it, I know. Lifting that big ole brain is going to take awhile.

I love you, Bug. You're absolutely perfect.

He's getting so big already! Totally amazing! He is so dang cute, I want to fly down to NOLA and kiss him!

Oh and ha ha I haven't decided I'm having a girl, but I have a much shorter list of boys names (Carlo, Paolo, Leonardo - Leo for short, and Dario - although I'm sure I'll come up with some others too).
