Half Marathon Weekend 2010

We had a great weekend, although the weather wasn't the greatest on Saturday.  7 people ran this year and all finished and are still alive to tell about it!!  Ian had a great time hanging out with grandma and grandpa, Aunts Erin and Chrissy and other friends.  We can't wait to do it again next year!  Thanks to everyone who came down this year.  We had a great time!

Easter and More....

We had a great first Easter with Ian here in Nashville.  The Easter Bunny put some eggs in our front yard, but Ian wasn't exactly sure what to do with them and he was very intimidated by the act of  crawling in the grass.  In the house nothing can stop him now, but out there he just sat in one place.  At least he got some nice eggs (the plastic candy filled kind, not hard boiled!) on his first Easter!

The past few months have been ones of tremendous growth for Ian.  He weighed in at 21 lb 5 oz and was 29 inches long at his 9 month check up.  He is crawling everywhere and into everything (read toilet, trash cans, cat food and water, toilet paper, onto the fireplace ledge to look at himself in the glass etc...).  He is so happy most of the time and sleeps really well.  We love him more every day. 

In February, we got to spend a weekend in Cincinnati with Howey, Sara and Jackson Corona.  Ian had a lot of fun playing with his buddy Jack and we had a great time hanging out with the Coronas and other friends from home!

In March Ian and I got to spend a week at home hanging out with family.  He had a great time with his cousins and they were excited to play with him again. 

Snow in Nasvhille....

For the first time in 4.5 years when they forecasted snow in Nashville, it actually snowed!

Bath Time....

Ian LOVES his bath!!

Updates on Ian from a Delinquent Mama....

So with the craziness of the holidays I haven't posted on our blog in almost three months and you can see from the photos below that Ian has changed a lot in that time!

Some of his recent milestones include:
he weighed 18 lb 10 oz at his 6 month check up and is wearing 9 or 12 month clothes already
he eats all of the fruits and veggies that Gerber makes and LOVES yogurt
he can hold his own bottle to eat
he now has two teeth on the bottom in the middle
he rolls over and can push himself up but can't crawl forward quite yet

We brought Ian to Ohio for Christmas, and being the totally together mother that I am, I completely FORGOT to bring our camera on his first Christmas!!! This meant that Aunt Katie had the job of capturing all of his Christmas moments on her camera, which meant over 300 pictures to sort through. Two Snapfish albums are posted below, the first are Katie's pics (might take you a while to get through them all), the second are the photos I took here in Nashville the night he opened his first Santa gifts before we left for Ohio. I have posted a few good photos from the holidays below. Hopefully I can be a little better at keeping up with the blog in the next few months!
