Easter Sunday

What a gorgeous Easter it was! Aunt Ginny and Uncle Scott spent the night with us to go to church on Sunday morning. WellWell and PawPaw came up to church too! Wesson was great again at church. He played with his bird and worked up a good nap just in time for Wayne's sermon. He actually slept all the way to Leigh Ann and Richard's until it was time for a few pictures. Can you believe this is our first family photo since Wesson was two weeks old? It was a beautiful day and it was great to spend time with all the cousins and Grandmother in Lawrenceburg.

Wesson was glad I remembered his hat. He still hates the sun!

Thanks Cousin Kate and Aunt Ginny. This was loads of fun. Not screaming was about the extent of the expression Wesson gave us during this little photo opp.

Cousin Will better be glad he was already preoccupied in his macho hiking contraption!

Chubby Bunny

You can't say Wesson isn't putting on a few rolls these days! Instead of taller than his monkey, this month he has gotten as WIDE as his monkey. Such a precious baby! I had to throw in the last picture because that is what he looks like most of the time these days... working those gums!

Rockin' This Hunt Thing

Wesson had his third Easter Egg Hunt of the week today. He really impressed the big kids at daycare! Take a look...

Hey Mama.... Here is one!

Yep that one. I'll take it!

Help me get a little closer. I need to check it out!

Yep. I got this. Now I just need to get it in this sweet bag Miss Cathy made me.

See! Genius! He is so ready to beat Will and Lilly on Sunday at Grandmother's. His little hat looks like a construction-grade hard hat... sad. Its really cute and he loves it. This baby is not friends with the sun at all. If could talk, he probably would have asked me for his sunglasses. I didn't think skulls and crossbones were Easter appropriate. Having so much fun with my bebe!

Wesson was a happy little bunny after all of the Easter/Palm Sunday festivities. We went to church where he was the best baby AGAIN! It was time for his lunch when we got to fellowship hall but he just couldn't eat. There was way too much going on to sit back. He sat with a complete stranger (to him, it was a family friend of ours) while we ate our lunch. We went outside just briefly to see all the eggs and children running around but it was too chilly and windy to stay out long. He finally took his bottle when that was all said and done. He napped until the hunt at the hospital started. He actually gave a few eggs away at that one. The hospital gives out prizes to all the children that participate (employees' children) by how many eggs they found. Wesson was minus a few and still got beach toys for our trip in October and a noise-making push thing. All the eggs you see are for his hunt at daycare tomorrow. I sure wish he could get formula in his eggs instead of all the candy that Mama and Daddy end up eating!

We also just found out that we are going to have a hunt at Wesson's great-grandmother's house on Sunday. That should be very fun for Cousin Lilly because she and Aunt Ginny are the only kids that can walk! Never a dull moment with Robertson grandchildren and now great-grandchildren so it should be quite the production!

Oh Peas!

Well peas are going well. The best part about introducing food is that he does it at lunch, which means five days out of the week he is with Miss Cathy! Emily was here this past weekend for all of our Easter Egg Hunts, baseball games, and new life experiences. It was all quite humorous! Thankfully Wesson had practice before I got to him. You can see here that we started out great and happy then I just wasn't fast enough so he wanted to help. By the last few bites, he was really not happy with me. We have moved on to squash this week and his little belly does not like it. We are sticking with a quarter jar until we get through this. Anyways... Enjoy our fun!

Beach Pictures!!!

Wesson is 1/3 of a year old!

Time for solids! If you didn't know, Wesson has been having a little issue with acid reflux and a cough and a little trouble gaining weight. Well we are on it now... he gained 7 oz this week!!! Thats an ounce a day like he is supposed to... Yah for CEREAL! Total stats = 11 lbs 5 oz 23" long. We are moving up this week and introducing a spoon and vegetables, which should be very entertaining for Mama and Daddy. Here is how the first spoon feeding went (lasted about 10 minutes then went for the bottle):

Thought it sounded good and wanted to help...

Then decided that it wasn't exactly so fun after all!

Got the hang of it a little bit but we really needed the high chair.

Always an adventure with ole Aunt Gigi!

1st Beach Trip at 4 months old

Wesson went to the beach this past weekend with Mama, Aunt Ginny and WellWell to see our family friend Sharri. We picked the two most gorgeous days to be there! We wore Wesson out shopping on Friday then took it easy in Seaside Saturday for lunch then on the beach that afternoon. There are lots of pictures. I just have to get them from WellWell. I will tell you that this little booger learned how to yell over the weekend. He is so busy now. I really think he is going to walk before he crawls. Its amazing. Here is a little preview:

Happy Birthday Aunt Ginny

Today is Aunt Ginny's 29th birthday... what an old lady! We have also had so much fun with her birthday being on St. Patrick's Day but this year is going to be extra special... we are going to the BEACH tomorrow!!!! I don't know what part of the trip I'm most excited about. I'm just so ready to go - even though I haven't packed a thing and I have doctor visiting for dinner tonight. YIKES!

We sent him a picture text but we forgot to make an official blog announcement for Uncle Scott's birthday. It was March 4th. Wesson wore his guitar shirt that day in his honor!

I left my camera at work yesterday so the picture is bad quality... anyways, Happy Birthday Aunt Ginny and Happy St. Patrick's Day to everyone!

PLAY TIME!

Well Wesson is just growing faster than we can believe! Even though he only weighs 10-13, he is so active! He wants to stand up constantly and it is wearing Mama and Daddy out. So last night while I was trying to study and entertain Wesson standing in my lap and Lee was taking out the trash, I suggested we try the exe-saucer... even though it meant something else plastic and colorful would be in the living room. Yes, the coffee table is losing votes. He loved it! Here are he and Daddy putting it together and him enjoying it... The last picture is the "slot machine" as Lee named it. Wesson figured out immediately how I made it spin --- GIFTED!

Far From a Feltman

WellWell had a hard time this morning with the blue jeans and boots. Wesson told me he wanted to wear it because Daddy was wearing jeans and boots today too. He was loving it! I sat him on the bed for a second this morning and the remote was beside him. He grabs anything near his little hands so this is what I got...

He was being so funny this morning (as usual) so I took a few "its Friday" seconds to snap some pictures....

Hanging Out With Daddy

Wesson was loving playtime with his Daddy (as he always does). But, lately he has really started liking sitting up in the recliner with Daddy to watch TV. Here they are last night having a good conversation. Yes, I know... always wearing a bib!

My Little Ham

Wesson was being a little ham this morning so I decided to snap a few pictures with his monkey since he is a big 3-month old now. He thought is was so funny to fall the other direction after I set him up against the monkey.... more and more like his Mama! I know the last picture is blurry but he is majorly cheesing. Enjoy!

Happy Birthday John Parker Herd!

I guess it was just a weekend of birthdays! John Parker turned 9 today so his birthday party was yesterday on a oh-so beautiful day to be outside. Wesson has not seen a whole lot of sunshine since November so kept his eyes closed most of the time. Since he was over his belly ache, WellWell decided to sneak Wesson a taste of ice cream. I think he liked it, probably because it was cold.

Happy Birthday Mimi!

Wesson's Mimi had her birthday on the 12th so we went to Scottsboro to visit. Since Wesson decided to greet them with a 24-hour belly ache, we ended up staying until Sunday morning. He was feeling much better and showered them with smiles and personality.

Sweet Finger... aaahhhhh!

He is my child after all! For those of you who have known me my entire life, you know this is the Sweet Finger. To catch everyone else up... I enjoyed chewing/sucking my "sweet finger" (as everyone called since it looked like it tasted that good) instead of my thumb when I was little. Lately, when the paci comes out, the finger goes in! Now I will have to say its not all the time. He does talk to us A LOT, but there are times when he just wants to look around and chew on his finger. The problem is that sometimes he gets his thumb caught in his mouth with the finger and it gets to be too much and he chokes himself. Its actually really cute when he realizes what he has done. The future problem... braces! I'm just going to put my money to the side now! Luckily though, I only had four braces on the front in the 3rd grade and that was it. Last thing... don't know if you can tell, but he is getting a little more peach fuzz on his head!

Wesson Got a Little Snow!

We woke up to a little snow this morning! It was so pretty because the sun was shinging. It has been hiding from us for some time now. Enjoy!
