Mommy's Favorite Pictures

Over the past two months Eric and I have taken many (and I do mean many) pictures of Everett. Here are a few of my favorites. I tried to get them in some kind of progressive order, however it didn't work out. It is amazing to see though how in just two short months how much he has changed.

Let's Play!

Stimulation anyone? Eric and I thought that Everett would definitely enjoy a play gym. So after researching many different types and brands we decided on the Baby Einstein Baby Neptune. So today we finally went to Babies R Us and got it! This was our first really fun purchase for Everett. We tried it out after one of his naps today and I would say he liked it. I think he enjoyed the mirror that hangs down the most. Of course I had to take tons of pictures of his new adventure as well as capture it on video. Enjoy!

The Williamson Men

Eric's brother Jason and his wife Becky and family (cousins Zeke and Daniel) had the opportunity to stop by in Louisville a few weeks ago and meet Everett. We were all talking in the living room and it suddenly hit me that I had to snap a photo of the Williamson men in our family. I thought this was a great picture of "the boys." Hmmm.....I wonder if there are any girls in our future?

The Lantzs Come to Town

We have had a fun couple of weeks with my family here in town. My mom (aka Gammy) was here for two weeks and my dad (aka Poppy) and Aunt Mary were here for one week. We all had a great time shopping, eating out, going to a few Louisville hot spots, as well as playing with Everett. It is especially hard now with them living so far away (Florida) and we love the time we do get to spend together. We miss you all!

2 Month Check-Up

Yeah for 2 months!

I just told Everett he has to get four shots!

Getting some comfort from Daddy

Shots hurt! At least the bandaids are cute!

Yesterday Everett had his 2 month checkup. I can't believe 2 months have already gone by. It really does go by fast. Everett now weighs a hefty 12 pounds 5 ounces and is 22 3/4 inches long. The doctor says he is developing quite nicely and is "a nice boy." We have recently been noticing Everett's personality emerging more and more and it is so fun! He is now smiling, which we love. He has become fascinated by music and lights as well. While we were at the pediatrician's office they had a mirror and we discovered that he found that fun as well. He loved looking at himself. He is cooing/grunting more and more (which of course I love especially.....it's the speech therapist in me....now let's work on our babbling skills!) We have truly enjoyed these last 2 months and look forward to many more exciting milestones! Happy 2 months Everett bear!

A Walk in the Park

Today was beautiful, so we decided to pack up a lunch and go for a picnic and a nice stroll. We had originally wanted to go to the pool, but we found out it is closed on Mondays....boo. We'll try again tomorrow. Yeah for lazy summer days!

First Date

Everett stayed at home with his grammy!

Eric and I enjoyed a "night out on the town" last night! It was the first date we have been on since having Everett. We went to the Olive Garden and had a great time. I had balsamic chicken and Eric had the trout. Yum! We enjoyed nice conversation and of course couldn't stop talking about our little boo bear. Although I was worried about leaving Everett (even if it was only 2 hours!) I do believe it was worth it for us to have one on one time with each other. We look forward to many more date nights!
