Ronan has picked up on the fact that if he looks sad, cries, or screams that someone will eventually pick him up. After staying with two sets of grandparents for the first part of his life, he has really gotten spoiled. What is he going to do when we are alone in our apt in Monterey? Especially for the first 30 days when daddy has to live at the dorm. If I need to cook dinner, I am not going to be able to hold him. Poor Ronan…He is just use to everyone loving him and wanting to hold him all the time! Posted by Hello


Do you see the red on his thumb? Everyone who sees it thinks that Ronan has been sucking on his thumb too hard. So I have to tell them it is his birth mark. In fact his daddy has one on his hand like this too. He came out of the womb with it and only recently has started sucking on his fingers and fist (no thumb sucking). So ha. Posted by Hello


Our friend Joel came over with 3 of his four children (baby is home with her mama). They all really liked Ronan and brought him a gift…the outfit you see here. The girls got out Ronan’s musical pooh book and Ronan really enjoyed listening to the music with them. Even though he was feeling a little under the weather he was smiling at them and having a really good time.  Posted by Hello


This is the outfit they got for Ronan. They were afraid it would be too small for him. But look! Its a perfect fit, with room to grow! I love the shorts because they are perfect for hot weather and go with a lot of shirts that he owns. The shirt with all the marine creatures, is just too precious! Its a muscle tee and I absolutely love it on Ronan! He looks so cute! Plus all the blue matches his own baby blues! Say thank you, Ronan! Posted by Hello


Anyways, Ronan wasn’t feeling too good today. He was taking a nap on the couch beside me this afternoon. He started coughing and the next thing I know, mummy milk is shooting out of his mouth and nose. It didn’t happen just once. No it happend at least 3 times…though I think about four times. When he was finished he looked at me, got really sad, and started crying. I picked him up and rushed him to my mum because it scared me. We got Ronan cleaned up and calmed down. Nonna rocked him in the rocking chair and I cleaned up all the evidence of Ronan being sick. He has been taking a nap on the couch and was up smiling when the kids were over. But he still seems to be a little sick and spitting up a tiny bit. Poor baby Ronan!  Posted by Hello
