Schaefer's Destiny

IT's GREAT TO BE A FLORIDA GATOR!!



GO GATORS!!!

Schaefer Met a Puppy...

Uncle Austin and Aunt Tara came over for dinner last night.

They have a 5 day old little Blue Pitbull puppy. He is SO CUTE!! They brought him over because he needs to eat every 3 hours (kinda like Schaefer). We decided it would be cute it Schefer held the puppy. I think he enjoyed it....

1 month old appointment

Schaefer had his one month old appointment today. He was VERY GOOD :) He smiled for the doctor, it was super cute. Everything was awesome with him. He is now... drum-roll please.....

11 lbs. 8 oz. and 24 inches long

The doctor had to actually measure him twice because he is off the charts for height :) He is in the 90th percentile for weight and above 97th percentile for height! We have a tall little boy.... are you surprised??

One Month

HAPPY ONE MONTH OLD
BIRTHDAY TO SCHAEFER :)


One month ago- August 24, 2009 our little Doodle-bug was born at this exact time!
(eventhough his birth certificate says 4 minutes sooner!)
WE LOVE HIM SO MUCH!!

Daddy went to work :(

Collin actually went into work today at his normal time... BOO!

(this is how Schaefer feels when Daddy leaves!)

Schaefer and I pretty much just hung out at home today. He decided to sleep in pretty late this morning. We have found that he really enjoys sleeping in our bed (after we wake up of course). We only let him sleep there in the morning for a nap... usually if he is fussy first. He was very comfy and content...

GOOD NEWS.... His umbilical cord fell off! Thank goodness... he lost it yesterday I just forgot to post it. Finally.... 4 weeks is LONG ENOUGH! Now he has a cute little belly button!

Schaefer keeps growing more and more hair.... it looks like it is going to be dirty blonde like his momma. It isn't as dark as Collin's hair... yet!?

Ok well I guess that is all of the updates I can think of. I will leave you with some fun new pictures of our little monster. Enjoy!

Busy day for a busy boy....

Schaefer had an eventful day today. After chilling at home for a bit with me (mom) he had to get dressed because daddy came home to run some errands with us. How cute does he look??

This was his first time going out with Mommy and Daddy! We went to a lot of places....
The accountants (to visit Ron), Weecycle (to try and find a Halloween costume-we didn't), Bank, Babies R Us (to find a bath tub that he won't drown in), and finally Publix to get some much needed groceries!

He was a very good baby... except at Toys R Us he got hungry and I (not thinking) left the bottle stuff in the car so I had to run out and get a bottle for him and he was fine! Then at Publix his diaper got wet and he got tired of being in his car seat so I had to take him to the car and change him. But other than our silly first time parent mistakes he was a good baby!

LESSON LEARNED: ALWAYS take a bottle into a store and let him out of his seat for a little bit!

OH and one last note....

we SO looked like new parents because at checkout (not realizing it) we both pulled out our hand sanitizer and started sanitizing away... OH WOW... hopefully no one saw??

Da da da da da... GO GATORS!!

This weekend was a BIG football game.... Florida vs. Tennessee. To get into the spirit Collin had me record a little video :) Enjoy... and GO GATORS!!

Naptime...

Schaefer was a big boy today. I have been slowly letting him try and sleep in his crib so that he can get used to it and up until today it hasn't been very successful. However, today he took a nap in his big boy crib all by himself up in his nursery. He was so cute all snuggled up in his bed!

Toys!!

I love to watch Collin play with Schaefer. Collin likes to give him some tummy time in the evenings after he gets home from work. Here are some photos I captured the other day of them playing together. SO CUTE!!

After Collin had finished playing, he had laid the rattle toy next to Schaefer on the floor. All of a sudden we started hearing it shake and it was Schaefer playing with it. He is so smart!! I love watching him discover new things.... so awesome!

Such hard work for a little guy!!!
