Trip, Teething, and Mother's Day!


We had quite an eventful week, last Thursday we headed to California to see Grandma and Grandpa Lytle, my brother and his finance Andrea were there as well. It was a lot of fun and the weather was absolutly perfect! I am not sure what my mom is complaining about. I have a feeling it has nothing to do with the weather and more that she is so far away. I agree with her it really sucks. I don't think Donovan was put down the whole weekend, he got a lot of love! It was a great weekend. He also really enjoyed be naked if you can't tell!




Donovan started getting two teeth in on the bottom row! What a big boy! He did really well handling it as long as we gave him teething tablets. He was a little fussy, but to be expecting, I couldn't imagine, how having teetch push through those baby gums would feel! He did great on the plane, didn't make much noise other and actually slept a little! The whole trip he slept through the night as well. I haven't gotten that much sleep since before Donovan was born. It was nice to have babysitters the whole weekend. This is a picture of the result of teething, wet shirt from drool, you can just tell he is uncomfertable! Still adorable though!

My brother, Andrea, Tim and I actually went out and got sushi which was REALLY good! It was fun to hang out with my brother and his future wife, we can't wait for the wedding! They make a great couple, and you can tell they love each other very much, we are lucky to have Andrea as part of our family!



Sunday was of course Mother's Day and it was perfect! Tim and Donovan got me a beautiful necklace with Donovan's birthstone which I love. Nice work Dad! It was especially nice to be able to spend it with my mom, which has thought me well! I hope all you mom's out there were spoiled like I was!

Baptism!

Donovan was baptized this weekend, and it went great! Angi (god-mother) and her kids came, Alex and Johnny, who we hadn't met yet! Alex is now talking a ton and Johnny is cute as can be. My mom also came Friday night, then Michelle, Jaelynn and Tim's mom Patty brought Pizza. On Saturday the rest of the crew came, my brother (god-father) and his finance Andrea, Krissy, Mason, Al, Tim's god-father Mark, and Tim'a aunt Pat! We had a full house, but it was wonderful to be surrounded by family. And to see all the grand kids all together! Here is a picture of them all!


Adorable kids if I must say so myself!

Donovan did great being baptized! He didn't cry once, but held on to the priest for dear life when he was being dipped!


Johnny is 6 weeks younger then Donovan and they are about the same weight and Johnny is longer then Donovan, those Lazaridis kids are off the charts in length and weight! Here are the future best buds together!



Thank you Brandon and Angi for being Donovan's god-parents, we are so excited to have you as important roles in our little man's life!



Thank you everyone for coming, you made the weekend very special for our family! We love you all!

Head up high




Although Donovan has been able to hold his head what seems like since he was born, he can now hold it up in his exer saucer! Very exciting step in an infants life. :)


He is just growing every day, and smiling more, laughing, screaming (this time is now out of joy), and sleeping great! Our little guy is becoming such a little boy!
