Donovan-2 months old


Well, Donovan is now 2 months old. I had to go back to work today so Donovan had a fun day with his Daddy. We don't know how much the boy is weighing these days, but I'm guessing around 13 lbs. He is a big strong baby. Who'd a thunk Brad and I could have such a tank! He loves to cuddle and be held, but he especially loves to eat...go figure. He and I went on his first plane ride a little over a week ago to Utah and he was an excellent traveler. He got to meet his cousins and visit with his grandparents who all adore him (how could they not?). His has already grown out of most of his feety pajamas and it makes me sad because they are so cute.

Brad is still helping assist the soccer teams at the college. They have the Conference Championship next week and Districts a week or two later. He loves to coach, but I know he would really like to play for a couple more years. I guess we will have to see where life takes us next. For now, he gets to be the head coach for one of the local high schools just outside of Council Bluffs. The Athletic Director who interviewed him told him he was pretty overqualified, so they are very grateful to have him. He is very talented and knows the game better than I could ever hope to. I give him a hard time for being gone so much, but I know he is doing what he loves and that makes him happy and makes going to school and being a stay at home dad more bearable...not that he doesn't love playing with Donovan for most of the day, but he isn't one to sit at home for very long not being productive.
Donovan is all ready for Halloween!! He is the cutest Tiger ever!

Like I said before, I went back to work today. It wasn't too bad, but I would love to be able to stay at home with my baby boy. Brad gets him when he is happy, I get to be with him in the evenings which is grumpy fussy time. I can't complain though, I love the little bugger too much. He is so much fun and I love him so much! I am already worried about him getting older. His Daddy already told him today that he can't grow up. I have never been so protective of anything. I hate leaving him and I don't want him to get old enough to leave the house without me! I am sure I will get over it, but I don't want to think about that day yet!
