Happy Thanksgiving!

Happy Thanksgiving to all our friends and family! We hope you all had a wonderful, blessed day.

This week we started "solids" with Zane - meaning rice cereal - and he did great! Of course we recorded this momentous occasion!

We thoroughly enjoyed Zane's first Thanksgiving. He had sweet potatoes for the first time today - and absolutely LOVED them. He definitely ate them with gusto and made very cute, happy sounds with almost every bite!

And he's developing more and more leg strength. We call him our little Weeble Wobble, doing the hula hoop!

Here's a Thanksgiving pic with Mommy & Grandpda!




Last weekend my wonderful friend Daria came to visit, with her two sons Nathan (7 1/2 months) and Brayden (2 1/2 yrs). Here's some pics of our two baby boys together!











Sending big Zane hugs out to everyone!

Zane is 4 months old!

Yesterday Zane turned 4 months old! How life has changed in the last 4 months!

We went to the Dr. today for his checkup, here are the stats on our BIG little boy!

Height: 26 3/4 inches - 96th percentile!
Weight: 18lbs 5 oz - 96th percentile!

So, since birth, Zane has gained 7lbs 14oz, and grown 5 inches. He's very happy and healthy! And the Dr. said we can start "solids" - which at this point means trying rice cereal to begin with =)

Here are a few pics:

Halloween & More Fun

Happy November everyone!


We had alot of fun with Zane for his first Halloween! Our little Zane the Zebra was just adorable. First we took him up to my office for the annual "bring your kids to work for trick or treating". Zane had lots of fun seeing all my coworkers and making them fall in love with him with his cute coos and smiles. Last night we had a blast walking him around the neighborhood. He was all smiles again and he's now coordinated enough to hold the candy! He got lots of candy and we promptly put it in the candy bowl and gave it to the rest of the trick or treaters.

Here's a few pics of our adorable zebra!


Zane seemed to LOVE being in his costume...and when it was time to change him, he also LOVED being naked! Here's a pic & a video showing just how happy he was. His hair is all crazy from the costume =)

and finally...today was an absolutely gorgeous day! We decided to go for a walk - and finally tried out the baby carrier, which Zane really loved! Since we didn't have the stroller with us, we took the dogs too - so we had our first walk as a whole family. Here's a pic of Mike, Zane, Lanikai & Kiko. And yes, Zane is wearing sunglasses! They just barely fit him! =)




Hugs & Kisses!
