WHY?

So I know it is almost June....why the hat you might ask? Only because he looks adorable, and this is one of the few times I can dress him without protest....at least not from him but much to the distress of his father. He is getting to be so much fun. LAUGHING all the time. I mean really cracking up. And eating lots....can you tell? He weighed 16.4 lbs at his last appointment, I would venture to say he is about another pound heavier. I love each and every ounce! Much love to our friends and family-

Tummy Time!

Love me some tummy time! Note the drool on my chin, yes, I am teething. I put pretty much anything in my mouth that I can chew on, mainly my own hands. Sometimes I get a little fussy, but for the most part, I am cool. Learned a new noise- I can gurgle. And I am getting really responsive to the name Bubba, so my parents are trying really hard to call me Walker. Whatever- I am cute either way-

Lots of pictures...we have been busy playing up a storm. Just in the last few days, Walker has discovered his hands and arms. Now, he shows his hanging toys no mercy! I think I am going to have my hands full pretty soon-

Me and Ellie (aka Bubba & Tukis)

Today I had my girlfriend Ellie over for an afternoon gab fest...Well, it really was a opportunity for my Mom and Sally to chat, but we looked cute just the same when they posed us together... Someday we will have a lot to talk about, mainly how silly our Moms are. They can't wait till we actually interact with each other, but it will happen soon enough. We were perfect angels!

Oh my goodness! Talk about sweet, Walker is really starting to make us proud. My father is going to be only known with a camera in front of his face, otherwise, Walker won't know who his Papa is. We are really lucky that we have a photographer in the family. I don't know how they do it, but they sure make him smile and look adorable for the camera.

Momma and Little Woobs

So I know this picture looks like we are deer caught in headlights, but styling yourself along with your three month old AND taking the picture can be quite the challenge. Though it might not be my best photo ever, I realized I have only a few pictures with Walker as a baby and even fewer videos. So here is what you get when you take your own self portrait. Lovely.

Walker is talking up a storm. Mainly shrill little yelps and coos. Very funny to his Mom and Dad. We start laughing and Walker giggles at us. We all get so tickled it's hard to stop laughing. Our little man is starting to want to stand on our lap pretty much the entire time you hold him, but he does love to lay on your lap and look at your face. He has started mimicking your facial movements too.

I went back to work this past week, which makes you realize how much you can miss your children and how nice it is to do adult things all in one big experience! It felt good to challenge my nursing skills once again, I forgot how much I enjoyed it. The ER is going to be a different style of nursing, but the fast paced atmosphere makes for fast days. I realize even more by seeing so many sick children how lucky we are to have such a healthy child. We are truly blessed.

HAPPY EASTER

Happy Easter! I hope that everyone had a wonderful day. The weather was so chilly, but beautiful. Walker was able to wear his frog outfit, much to the dismay of his Dad. He is cooing and smiling up a storm. I think that he has been feeling a little under the weather for the past few days, his nose is stuffy and he has been coughing when he wakes. But today he really seemed to feel better. We visited with Hootie and Papa, Gi-Gi, Gi-Gipa and Gi-Gima, Andy and Janice and Joey. Everyone thought Walker had gotten so big!

The start of sunsuits!!!!

So now that summer weather is here in Atlanta, Walker's duds need to reflect the heat. So now he wears his sunsuits and I think it is really cute to see his little chubby legs hanging out, not to mention his little shoulders! So sweet. Little girls have their dresses, we have sunsuits. Walker got tuckered out today helping Momma garden. So he found the best sleeping spot in the house, Daddy's chest.

Squeaky clean!!!

So my new favorite activity is chillin in the tub with my Mommy. I LOVE to be swirled around...it makes me smile! This weekend I met all my Alabama relatives, and my Grandmother put on quite the spread!!! She even had a cake there to celebrate my first trip to my Alabama home. I smiled and cooed at all my relatives, I really smiled big at great-Aunt Polly and my great-Aunt Michele. Of course, I love everyone, but they said something funny about my Daddy!

Too Precious

So early today I wasn't feeling all that well, and the best thing I could think of doing was sleep all day long. Which means tonight, when my Mommy and Daddy are settling in to sleep, I will be wide awake. But that is alright with them because I am so darn cute. See my smile!

Me and My Daddy walkin the neighborhood

Although it looks like I don't like it, I actually do. I love hanging out with my Daddy, no pun intended. Look how long I am!!!

Me and my buddy

Aren't these two adorable?? Jackson and his parents, Gavin and Amber came over for dinner and the boys hung out on the couch. They looked really cute, and Walker tried to eat Jackson's hair. Whatever. He got his shots today and cried and cried, but quieted down nicely. He has been snoozing afterwards, and he did smile at me a lot, which makes me feel better!

I can sit in my BUMBO!!!!!!!!!

Look at me! I can really sit in my bumbo now. I am not quite sure how much I like it, but Mom keeps putting me in it. I went to the hospital to see all my girlfriends from when I was in Mommie's tummy. I especially loved the clinic nurses. They took good care of me and feed me a bottle. I am getting soooo big!

Bobby and me

Today I had visitors from Alabama!!! My Grandmother and my Grandpa (Bobby) came over to say hello! Bobby hadn't seen me since the day I was born, so his little buddy really had grown! Great- Grandmother Joyce came too. I smiled really big at Bobby, I think he is really neat. Grandmother gave me a bottle and I burped just as loud as my Daddy does! That made him really proud! Yesterday I visited for the first time with my great aunt Donna and great uncle Jeff, who came to visit from North Carolina. We ate dinner together and I slept in G-Aunt Donna's arms. She was very good at rocking me to sleep. It must be all that rocking she does volunteering in the NICU!

ROLL TIDE!!!

So, I know it isn't football season, but I couldn't resist dressing Walker in some Bama attire his Grandmother and Bobby got him. He is getting so big I can't believe it! Lots of smiling, mainly at Daddy(of course, who couldn't smile at him!), holding his head up really well, eating like a champ. Our little boy is growing and growing!

I smiled....for real!

Just Chillin in my chair that my great-grandma Joyce gave me. I particularly love this swing after I eat. It soothes me right to sleep. I just smiled for the first real time!!!! Daddy was telling me how big I had gotten when he was at work, and I thought that was funny so I smiled...a big smile and then I smiled a little more. Who knew me smiling and looking at my Daddy would be such news but it is. Today I hung out with Jackson while Mom and Amber walked on the silver comet trail. Then I had lunch with Ellie while Mom and her friends ate. We just slept. Go figure.

I drool......at least that is what my shirt says.

I know that this is just a random picture that looks like he is smiling, but I think that it is precious. I was trying to showcase his outfit Christy our neighbor gave him, and he really perked up before the camera. Future ham? Adorable all the same.
The one above shows how he tries to sit up whenever I put him in the boppy. He is getting really strong for a 5 week old! Today he even sat in his bumbo chair and liked it!

Walker wanted to show everyone the onesie that his talented Uncle Andy made. Turns out it is really fun to have a graphic artist in the family!!! Click on the picture and you can read what it says....

Me and My very tired Momma

Me and GGpa and GGma!!!

Today I went up to my Great-Grandparents house to visit. Mom dressed me in my jail bird pants. Dad thinks I look silly, I think I look handsome. Great-Grandpa held me and I stretched and made all of my funny noises. It was a lot of fun. I love my Great-Grandparents and Anne!!

See??? I am active. I love my giddy up and go gym the beautiful nurses of 3East gave me. And the boppy is a perfect cradle. I keep reaching for the cow, someday l'll get it.

how I spend my day

A lot can happen during the day, I just don't know about it or more importantly, care. I love to sleep on my Mom and Dad's bed and even more on my huge boppy my Great Aunt Kathy made for me. I did suffer an outfit change which disturbed my nursing and sleeping.

My Mom wanted me to spend tummy time, well, on my tummy, but I rather spend it in a breakdancing move pose. I flipped myself over onto my side which I like much better. Does that count as my first turn over???

And I am spent......

You really can't tell it in this picture, but I am getting really good at holding up my head and looking around. This is what learning to do that does to you. Sacks you out!!!

Me and My Daddy

Ellie and Walker....the early Bama fan years

Ellie and Walker have plenty of choices for college, I know. But if it were up to their Dads, I bet they would be Bama bound. We had Sals and Jody over for the Bama vs. Kentucky basketball game. Ellie stayed awake much longer than our Walker. Bama won by a few, and the babies celebrated with some bottles of breastmilk!

The studs of BABY BOWL 2007!!!!

A lot changes when you and your best friends have kids. No more all nighters that involve drinks and dancing, but rather all nighters that include breast milk and burp cloths. But what an awesome thing to have your friends take the journey of parenthood along side you. Every Superbowl Sunday that Jonathan and I have been together we have thrown a party. This year was no exception; however, we did have a few new additions. Gavin and his wife Amber brought Jackson, the eldest of the trilogy. Jody and Sally with their sweet daughter Ellie, and the of course, Jonathan and Walker. So much fun!!! Dads were on duty while the girls got to enjoy themselves, chatting away about the struggles and joys of motherhood. All three babies really behaved themselves, eating and sleeping most of the night. Jaime and her fiance Harry also stopped by to enjoy the festivaties. We really did have a fun evening. Can't wait till next year when they will be walking!

Isn't he lovely?

Our wonderful Walker

How sweet is our little man? I know that I am biased, just like every mom. He just looks so innocent in this picture. If he takes after either of us, boy does he have us fooled.

This picture was taken on new year's eve 2005, right before we got married. My, a lot can happen within in one years time. A marriage, then a baby....whoa!

Welcome to our family!!

Hello everyone!!!
I thought this might be an easy way for everyone to keep updated on our family happenings assuming people are interested in our doings! Jonathan and I have been together now for five years, and were married on March 18h 2006. A little more than three months later, we found out we were blessed with a little one on the way! We live here in Atlanta, in a suburb called Smyrna.
Jonathan works in sales and I as a pediatric nurse. Jonathan Walker Glasscox was born on January 19th at 7:44am at Piedmont Hospital. He weighed 8 lbs and 6 oz. Jonathan and I are overwhelmed by how much we love him already! Walker is such a sweet baby that sleeps well, eats well and pretty much just hangs out. I can't wait till he gets a little older and his personality really shines through. I will do my best to keep this site updated, so please send us comments to keep me motivated!
