A day at the park...

This was a gorgeous day son we went to go pick up your brother from school. He loves to play at the rec center and the playground after school, so while we waited for him we enjoyed a little sun with a splash of Vitamin D. Your so curious at this age your little eyes wandered all around the playground and watched all the little boys play. This will be you in a few years but for now you are still my little 4 1/2 month old. Mommy loves you!

Baby Wipes Case Covers

Sebastian I saw the cutest thing ever on you tube! While watching a video on how to make a wipes case cover I decided to try to make one of my own. It's so simple that I also decided to make one for our good friend Elise hers is the one to the left with the pink bow of course, I also made one for our neighbor which is the one to the right with the brown bow. These are so much fun to make that I've decided to make a few to either sale or give as gifts. These are great baby shower gifts and can be used for quite some time. Baby's use wipes for a long time and are carried absolutely everywhere so why not make them a little fashionable instead of the plain white case. I made a few for your diaper bag! Hope you like mommy's artistic side of her. I made this green and blue one to match your diaper bag. These I will keep in your keepsake box once we no longer use them. Mommy loves you!

Sebastian St. Patrick Day Pictures

~Sebastian

"Your very first St. Patrick's Day, was on March 17, 2011." My friend Vanessa and I decided it would be a great idea to have the both you and Elise have your pictures taken together. You guys do not sit up on your own quite yet therefore this photo shoot was very interesting. The both of you kept leaning on one another and would slide down on each others side. It was hilarious! Elise was quite the model I must admit she loved being on her tummy. You although my little ray of sunshine are not a fan of tummy time. I think it's kind of cute that you have a little play date buddy! Hopefully when you guys are both older you can look back at these pictures together still as friends.

Sebastian's Nursery

Sebastian here are a few pictures of your nursery. You most likely won't remember so these pictures may help see what it looks like now and when your a bit older munchkin you can see all the love and hard work your family put into it making it perfectly just for you. I will never forget the day you where born.  You where born on your actual due date on November 7, 2010. I went into to labor just a day before  the 7th, and on this day we where going to paint your nursery. I experienced contractions the entire day while shopping at home depot for paint. Mommy, Tia Nadia, Nino Phillip, Big Brother Jesse and Cousin Christina

where all going to paint your room while daddy was at work. However

that did not happen because you where on your way. Daddy, big brother

Jesse and I couldn't wait to meet you! Mommy did 80% of her labor at home

and checked in the hospital around 11:30p.m Sat. Nov. 6, 2010.

All of your family waited anxiously for your arrival but you made

them wait even longer since you decided to come out into our world

 sunny side up with no complications. You where born during daylight

savings and I had you at 4:00a.m instead of 3:00am. We spent one

 night at the hospital and we where on our way home the following

day. To our surprise when we came home Tia Nadia, Nino Phillip

and cousin Christina had surprised us with your nursery painted in

blue! It was perfect four our little Sebastian. Thank you everyone

who helped make this happen especially to my beautiful sister Nadia

who goes above and beyond to making me oh so very happy.

Here is the rocking chair that took me countless hours of searching while on my lunch just to find the perfect one for you. I had to make sure that it matched the rest of your furniture of course but most of all it had to be the right one for our little See Bass, especially for all those nights that mommy will hold you oh so tightly nursing you, singing lullabies, rocking you, talking to you and most of all loving you! 

Now here you are on your changing table exploring your little feet that you find very interesting.

 Below are the rest of your nursery pictures and if you look closely at the last image Tia Nadia created a "Welcome Home" Sign just for you  and we have left it for you to see.

Tia Nadia and Cousin Christina help build your changing table till wee hours of the night the following day you where born. It came out beautifully. Even though they had very little sleep this night they did it all for you.

Here you are now we've experienced blow outs, wet diapers, and duck and cover fountains of pee from someone so sweet like you. Your daddy loves to change your diapers even though you are squiggly as can be you are growing more and more each and every single day. We love you sweet little pumpkin!

Your Jumperoo

 

You love it!



Sebastian your daddy and I decided that a Jumperoo from Fisher Price was the ideal activity center for you. The first time we placed you inside your new rainforest jumperoo it seemed all so new to you. You sat in it for a bit stared at the toys and gradually you started to grab and play with them. You enjoyed listening to the music but most of all you where ecstatic that you where able to jump in it. At 3 1/2 months you where a bit small to reach down but a box underneath did the trick. Now you jump up and down and reach the ground like there is no tomorrow. Happy jumping love bug!

Love Mommy, Daddy & Big Brother Jesse.

Baby Basket and Friends!

"Hi baby cakes mommy had the greatest idea and decided to put you in a basket with a few of your stuffed animals" I know it sounds crazy but you couldn't resist it either at one point you even grabbed Mr. Giraffe and stuffed him in your little mouth.

ma-maa loves you!

Brotherly LOvE!

"Sebastian you and your brother had your pictures taken last weekend and you weren't to happy about it. Both of the pretty photographer ladies tried to make you laugh but no luck. We even had to take a break for a feeding in hopes that you would smile a bit. We where able to get a coo here and there but that was all. Maybe at our next picture session"

Cooing Galore

Hi my little butter cup! Today you spent the day with your daddy and your mommy. We went to breakfast and a few stores and of course I can't help but to always go to the baby section. You where full of energy today and where cooing and at one point even making loud adorable sounds. Your dad and I where happy to hear your coos, and giggles but most of all your big brother Jesse, who loves you very much. Keep them coming...
