A few more from the snow storm...

SNOW STORM!! John Patrick at 15 weeks

Got almost 2 feet of snow over the weekend, and it has paralyzed DC. School was cancelled Monday and Tuesday, and we are enjoying extra Mommy time at home this week! Took little man out in the snow, and he was not a fan!! Today we tried again, this time while it was not snowing, and put him in the sled. He didn't cry, but his face tells it all.. "Go ahead, Mom, get your pictures. Then can we be done?" He at least humored me!

My First Visit to Santa! @ 15 weeks

Decided to hit the mall to meet Santa on Friday night before the big storm blew in. Hardly any wait at all, and they were even nice enough to let me take my own pictures on my camera. John Patrick didn't mind the Jolly Fellow, but he was kind of out of it, so no big smiles like usual. I was hoping for a tug-the-beard- picture....

My First Thanksgiving

Decided rather last-minute to go to Rochester to spend Thanksgiving with family. John Patrick had a blast with his cousins "KatieMeganClaire" as they are known, and his aunties and uncle JP. Here are a few pics of the little man surrounded by his adoring cousins and Godmother Sybil!

John Patrick is 3 months old!

Hard to believe he is already 3 months old on December 3rd- also my return back to work date. I am going to miss spending so much time with him everyday, but will look forward to coming home to his irresistible smile everyday. We did this portrait session at home last weekend in hopes of getting a Christmas card shot, but he was past his smile time. Nonetheless, we still captured his "preppy boy" spirit!

10 weeks old- Sunday hike in Rock Creek Park

After my 2 month doctor's checkup!

John Patrick did very well at his 2 month checkup. He weighed 12 lbs 5 oz, and measured 24.5 inches long. His height is in the 90th percentile! Turns out he has a rather small head, in only the 25th percentile! He is tall and skinny- his onsies are all too short, and his pants too long and wide.

He did cry a lot when he got his vaccines, but after a long long nap, he was back to normal, all smiles! The nurse have him a bugs bunny bandaid and he looked so cute!

Videos of John Patrick at 9 and 10 weeks old

9 weeks old

We went to our new friends Linda and Gavin's baptism of their little guy Ronan, who is just a month younger than John Patrick. Since our little guy was dressed up so cute in his antique cars outfit, I had to do a mini photo shoot in the beautiful fall weather!

9 weeks old hike at Little Bennett Park

On Sunday we enjoyed the beautiful fall weather and took a drive up to Sugarloaf mountain for a hike, only to find out when we got there that the county had closed the road and the park for roadwork. We were so bummed not to be able to take our hike there, but had fun taking pictures at a cute little farm nearby, and a hike in another park close by. Just wish it would stay light out longer so we could have more time to play outside!
