3 months...

We can't believe that 3 months have already gone by...so quickly! Zac is starting to enjoy some of the routines of our day - he typically starts the day by staring up at his mobile for 20 minutes or so and just talks to it and kicks his feet with excitement. As a family, we enjoy mornings together - breakfast, books, songs (Daddy sings not Mommy!) and sometimes we even walk Daddy to school. It's a family affair with Tucker included! Whenever we have an opportunity we swing by the studio to visit Daddy and he always looks forward to seeing his little man and the little man's Mom! :)


A few pictures from the last week...








Tummy time!!!



Zac and his friend Sam - someday they will not be pleased that we put them in pink and lavender seats. (luckily enough we have a blue bumbo at home thanks to the Proctors!)



he's starting to love his bouncy seat - for awhile he was a bit apprehensive...



clean as a whistle...and now loves the tub!!!



no explanation needed...he just wants to be like his Dad!

zac's christening...

We had Zachary baptized at Our Lady of Sorrows in Essex on the 30th of September and it was a beautiful day. Unfortunately Zac fell asleep at the end of the baptism and slept through the entire celebration. He was admired by all as he sat peacefully in his car seat. We were grateful to have so much love and support surrounding us on such a special day. Thank you to the children who attended (Anna, Caroline and Grace) for participating in the baptism - we'll tell Zac in the years to come what an important part you played in his day. Thank you to Granmare and Pop-pop for hosting the reception at the Yacht Club - it was perfect.
Thank you also to all of you who traveled from near and far!!!

uncle james' visit...

Uncle James made the trek from California to meet his nephew and to participate in zachary's christening (pictures to follow). We were so excited to seem him and the trip to the airport was a quick one as we stayed with friends - Keith and Angela the night prior. We arrived earlier in the day to have lunch with Candi and Penny and also visited some of my former colleagues. It was great seeing everyone! Zachary started a new sleep routine while at Keith and Angela's...4+ hours at a time! I attribute it to the peaceful off the road room we were in - no sirens, no motorcycles and clean fresh air. Don't get me wrong, he has adjusted beautifully to the sounds here in Providence, but he certainly appreciated a night away from it all...as did I! We tested out Baby V's nursery by using the changing table and rocking in the cozy rocking/glider chair...it was heavenly. That little baby is a lucky one - soon to arrive!



Zac, Candi and Penny - lunch at Agave...yum! yum!


Zac at Keith and Angela's so excited to meet his Uncle James






Uncle James and Zac - he fell fast asleep on his shoulder - seems to be the way when he gets around people that want to hold him and get to know him. (just ask his grandparents!)
