Go IRISH!!

I'm sporting my new ND hat...I know...I look good...what can I say?

Grandpa Morris...sorry about the ND hat, I know you love Purdue...but daddy loves ND so I have to love them too! But, I'll always have a special place in my heart for Purdue too! :)

Okay mom...seriously, can we be done taking pictures already??

Playtime dedicated to Daddy!

Okay, so I'm not going to post a video of playtime everyday, but we missed daddy today so we wanted to make sure he got to enjoy playtime with us via the blog! :) Plus, Maddux is just so stinkin' cute, so I couldn't resist posting more of his beautiful smiles and growing personality! Who knew babies could be so incredible and irresistible! Don't mind the clapping and music...that's our signature "playtime tunes"!

And yes Mark...Maddux does enjoy the high decibels...can't you tell???

Playtime with Mommy

Maddux really enjoys playtime with mommy...it's amazing how playtime has evolved over the last couple of weeks. In the beginning, there wasn't a lot of interaction and it seems like with every passing day, he's developing so much and we can actually play together. It's probably my favorite time of the day! :)

My First Mother's Day

Enjoying some sun with my mom and Grandma


Spending some time with Grandma and Craig

What is Grandma laughing at...she laughs a lot!


Kisses from Grandma...those are the best!

Some day I might be a little embarrassed by this picture...but I do love to kiss!

5 weeks old and counting...

It's my first official smile caught on camera...my mom couldn't figure out how to rotate it so sorry it's sideways!

Sound asleep after my visit to my surgeon's office...everything is looking great and I'm perfectly healthy!

My mom is trying to get a picture of my new outfit and I'm really not thrilled about it!

This position is much better!

Working on holding my head up...this is hard work!

I think I'm doing pretty good here!

If only I could eat this collar on my shirt....

Feelin' pretty thug like here...getting ready to go power walk with mom!

I'm really focused here! That fan above me is pretty cool!

Hi everyone!

I just can't quite get my head up!

I've got up a little bit....

but laying here on this boppy is much more comfortable!

Boy...I'm pretty good lookin'!

I hate when I punch myself...why do I do that?

That big ball above me is pretty neat!

Here I am with my "Uncle" Tyler...first time we've met...I think he's pretty cool!

And here I am with my Aunt Julie...she makes me feel so comfortable...I just couldn't even keep my eyes open!

One Month Pictures

Maddux had his one month pictures taken today and these are the 8 poses that we decided on. He had several more we could have picked as well, but you have to stop some where...even though we could have just bought them all! :) He cooperated so well...much better than I expected. The photographer loved his little outfit...she said he was a "little teenager" in his polo and plaid shorts! He's just too precious!

More Maddux Dean...

I'm taking over Daddy's spot in bed! (Don't worry...he doesn't sleep with us!)

Grandma Kettlebar giving me a bottle!

Sleeping on my Grandpa Kettlebar....he's still got the touch!

My girlfriend's two-year old daughter, Olivia, is holding Maddux...or "Maggots" as she called him!

Snuggling up with Grandma!

On my way to Red Robin for dinner...I'm pumped!

Grandpa makes me so sleepy!

Bath time...wow...this water is warm!

Daddy is pretending to sleep like me...I think he's actually mocking me!

Okay, now Daddy and I are really sleeping! Boy....he's comfortable!
