JJ's first Halloween

We spent Halloween trick-or-treating with the Lopez family in their neighborhood in Ladera. It was so much fun taking JJ around, although he slept the entire time! I am glad I snapped this first picture before we left. He didn't wake up until we got home 4 hours later! He had a great time though going door to door with his daddy!

Saturday

A week in Newport

My parents invited us to stay with them at their condo in new port for the week. It was like we were on vacation! We all needed the little getaway. We relaxed and slept a ton. Especially JJ, I think he really liked that sea air.

Sunday

John Sr.'s Birthday!

On October 19 John turned 29! We had a special celebration at home, just the 3 of us. If you ask John I bet he'd say it was the best birthday ever!


Saturday

JJ's first bath

We had to wait an extra week to give JJ his bath. His cord came off a little before it was ready so we had to continue to give him sponge baths until it completely healed. I think we were all so anxious for this first big moment. He really liked it!


Wednesday

JJ meet's his new buddy Clay

JJ and Clay Riggs are exactly 3 weeks apart! Here they are meeting for the first time just one day after Clay was born. They were instant pals! :)

JJ is three weeks old




Sunday

JJ meets Auntie Kymber

Auntie Kym came all the way from San Antonio TX to meet her little nephew! Thanks Kym for coming to see us! We love you and miss you!!

Thursday

JJ's newborn pictures

JJ had his first official photo shoot! He's just two weeks old and already so awake and alert. I guess typically newborns are either pretty sleepy or sleep right through these photo shoots. Not our JJ, he wanted to know what was going on every second. We got some great pics though, thanks again to Jessica Claire. http://www.jessicaclaire.net/

JJ's first walk

October 4, 2008 we took JJ out to see his neighborhood. We took him down to the Aliso Viejo town center and walked around the fountain, it put him right to sleep!


We tuckered him out!

Friday

JJ meets Elijah

Nate and Anadee's son Elijah was born just 4 weeks before JJ. We were so lucky that they were in town 2 weeks after JJ was born. These future buffs are already buddies!! Their daddies are so proud!
