Christmas and more December randoms

Play time with my little guy!

I ordered us matching Christmas pajamas back in the middle of November, I didn't realize I was ordering from a Chinese company until I checked out/paid and the receipt was all in Chinese symbols! I looked up reviews and people stated that it was a legit website, which it indeed was, it just took 5 weeks for them to get delivered! We got them a few days before Christmas, thankfully! Branko's fit super funny, but I think the picture turned out cute!



My mom got Branko this bib, our little ginger bread boy!


3 months old on Christmas Day! I missed Branko's first Christmas since it was my 2nd day back at work. My first day was supposed to be Saturday, December 19th, but one of my co-workers was looking for hours that week and asked to take my shifts that weekend, definitely was not going to pass that offer up! That gave me an extra 5 days of maternity leave! I had off on Christmas Eve, so we spent the afternoon at Patrick's moms and then the evening with my family at my parents. It was our first time leaving the house besides running errands in a LONG time. Branko still has not been to a store or restaurant yet, dang covid..
Month 3: Branko still has not slept through the night, but getting close, some nights. Branko loves to smile and wants to laugh so bad. He loves to "coo" and "a-goo" throughout the day, but especially before bed. He loves to play in his gym and swat at his hanging elephant that has a bell in it. He's starting to grab anything he can get his hands on and put it in his mouth. But his favorite thing to put in his mouth are his hands, especially the right hand and especially in the bath. 


Patrick's Aunt Nancy and Uncle Greg bought these stuffed animals for Branko. This particular company donates food to families. This picture is from Christmas Eve, outfit #1.
Branko's first Christmas gift to open!

Not pictured what it actually is: a play walker!
Outfit #2. Getting snuggles in with Ava and Auntie Jodi.


Snuggles with Grandma!
His new favorite light up rattle from Patrick's mom
A little out of order, back to outfit #1 on Christmas Eve.



Playing the "air drums" with dad.



Branko also wore this outfit a lot, well whenever Patrick dressed him for the day. We figured this would probably be the last time he would get to wear it since the niners didn't make it to the playoffs.

Throwback to the first time he wore the onesie.
I had to take this picture to show how big Branko has gotten.
Throwback to when he was only a teeny tiny week old baby.
Starting to show interest in holding his own bottle. Good job buddy!
Our happy guy! These pj's were from my friend Jenna, they have band-aids, stethoscopes, and other nursing accessories on them :)

First smiles!

Image
November 6th was our little guys first real smile, and boy does it make all the exhaustion worth it! Starting to bring his hands together :) Nora being put to work and getting to feed her baby cousin! More smiles with Auntie Jodi! My favorite time of day are mornings in bed with Branko, that’s if he slept well the night before. But he is extra smiley in the morning! And those blue eyes really pop with the lighting in our room! Fun filters with Nora! This was the first onesie I bought when I was pregnant. I was in Arizona with some girlfriends for the Waste Managemenr golf tournament back in Jan/early Feb. I didn’t realize it at the time, but the onesie is a tad girly with the ruffled sleeves! (hard to tell in this picture). I like to call this the “Bjorn” shirt. If you know, you know.  Since the masters were cancelled this year, it was rescheduled for November. Patrick and Branko have matching “Yama boy” shirts. Hidecki MatsuYAMA is a Japanese golfer who Oatrick is obsessed with. Him a

New Beginnings

 Welcome to our blog as we welcome our first baby into the world! A few of my family members, mainly my sisters (yes I’m dissing you Jeff for failing on updating your blog in YEARS), have a blog that I enjoy refreshing for updates every week, so I thought, why don’t I make one?!  Being pregnant during covid and quarantine, as well as being a nurse in a hospital, has brought its challenges/fears/anxieties, we persevered )so far) and are ready to welcome this baby boy or girl in just a few short weeks! 2020 has gotten a very bad rap, it’ll be a year in history to remember, from Covid-19, all non-essential stores and restaurants closed, Black Lives Matter, to my hometown of Kenosha being looted and set on fire due to a police officer shooting, making global news.  September 25th is our actual due date, so we’ll see if Little D decides to come early or late.  I probably should have started this a little earlier, but I thought we could just go down memory lane of some photos during the preg

Christmas in Florida!

Image
 We were lucky to spend another Christmas in Florida with Patrick's mom, sister, and papa. These pictures uploaded in reverse order, but you'll get the idea. We had an early flight that left at 6:40 AM, yikes! I was nervous with how Branko would do, but he did fabulous waking up at 4AM and acted like it was a normal morning. We got to the airport and through the line for security when my ticket wouldn't scan. My husband thinks my birthday is June 20th and not June 25th! This isn't the first time he's done this. Last time was before our trip to Cabo (that we never got to go to due to Pat hurting his back), however, Patrick caught it the day before we were supposed to leave. Luckily, the airport wasn't too packed and we were able to get through the line again without any wait. We were very lucky to fly out before this "massive" snowstrom that was to come. Schools were cancelled-including colleges during finals week, allowing for kids to have 2 days extra
