Weekend preview

Here's a sneak peak into how we spent the weekend:

Wanted

There is a reward out to anyone that can bring in the heathen that did this to my baby's arm:

We have a few clues as to the identify of the assailant:

1) It was a female

b) She has at least 8 teeth

iii) Reese and Ryan have alibis

Anyone who can bring in this little vixen will be rewarded with a kiss from Christopher- slobbery and open-mouthed of course.

Sexy and I know it

Cuddling up to Christopher

As I mentioned here, Christopher was living the good life this weekend.  He was spoiled rotten with affection from a couple of his favorite ladies. These pictures pretty much sum it up:

Oh wait- sorry Christopher- the last photo is actually Aunt Leslie snuggling up to Jack.  She did not come visit you this weekend.  She is also not currently sporting the "holiday weight/preggo with Ryan" look these days. 

Man of the House

Christopher was the man of the house this weekend. Daddy was out of town and Grandma came in for a visit. So how was "Willy" feeling after being adored, kissed on, and played with all weekend?

Weekend fun

Who is super excited for Grandma to get here for the weekend? This guy:

Best seat in the house

Where's the best place to enjoy your bottle in the O'Neill house?  Obviously the answer is "in the dishwasher".  Christopher has a new found love of climbing into the dishwasher while mommy (cha right) or daddy is doing dishes.  But don't worry people- we were right there to take pictures make sure he didn't fall off, get stuck, drown, or steal a knife and shank somebody. 

Will he walk??!!

I have joked for awhile now that Christopher will be crawling into kindergarden.  He has shown zero interest in standing- let alone walking.  Zero interest until a couple of days ago.  We just might have a walker within the next couple of years months. 

What's in the box?!?!

Well it's an 11-month old little nugget- that's what.  Christopher's new favorite place to sit is inside any box he can find.  Note to his peeps- first birthday gift idea- boxes.



Happy Easter

Christopher's first Easter (outside the womb)= success.  Mommy remembering to actually document Christopher's first Easter (outside the womb)= failure.  We spent Easter Saturday with the O'Neill peeps (Aunt Katie was missed!).  Christopher had a great time climbing up the steps (ok- just one step), chasing Aunt Erin around the kitchen, and talking about Jesus with Uncle Pat.  He even got a talking Elmo from Grandma & Grandpa O, and some bath letters/numbers from Aunt Erin.  This holy day is a-okay in Christopher's book.

We had a quiet Easter Sunday with just the three of us.  It was a perfect, low key day.  It didn't hurt that Mommy was able to enjoy a milkshake after 40-days of no ice cream.  Christopher capped off his Easter with a bath and some mathematics.  What can I say- he's a smart dude!

Getting ready to show off his mad math skillz:

He is a genius!  I didn't even help him.  And he was smart enough to know that the "1" Daddy gave him was actually an "I" and didn't belong.

Snoozin

Christopher has a pretty nasty cough- so the doctor recommended breathing treatments every 4 hours.  So I headed over to school at lunch today to administer the treatment.  This is what I found when I walked in: 

I didn't have the heart to wake the little guy up- so I just hung out until he was ready.  I could eat those cheeks for breakfast, lunch and dinner.

My boys

How can I be expected to go to work when this is happening at home?!?!?

Another great family visit

We have returned from another wonderful trip to the Lou.  Overall we had a fantastic time, and it didn't hurt that the average temp was in the 80's while we were there.  Christopher thoroughly enjoyed his quality time with his STL family.  He definitely loved every minute he spent with his cousins- those kids certainly know how to make this little dude laugh.  And bless all of their little hearts for being so nice to Willy- even when he was taking their food, stealing their toys, splashing water in their face's or attempting to bite their cheeks (sorry Reesey!).  Enough talk, on to the pictures:

First attempt at driving, pants were optional:

Sweet Jack sharing his yogurt:

Cousin bonding time.  Is Sweet Jack punching my baby in the face??

These next photos are entitled "An Ode to Reesey".  She is hands down the funniest person I have ever met. 

Be happy she is wearing a bathing suit:

 The girl has some serious dance moves:

Seriously?  How cute and funny can you get??

That face makes me smile every time I look at it.
