Welcome to the Hickstionary, a landing spot for all things H family.
I'm Heidi. He's Rusty. And together we have our beautiful babe, Beckett and a furry menace, Dakota.
I mostly use this space to brag about how awesome the kid is, whine about how naughty the dog is & share an occasional deep thought.
Thanks for hanging out with us as we figure out this [blessed] life!

5 Weeks






5 WEEKS!!!

Highlights of this week: 
You are a chunky monkey! We went to our first Mommy n Me class and you weighed in at 10 lbs 3 oz! They said you should have gained 1 to 2 pounds by now and you had gained more than 3. That was on Tuesday and I'm certain you were heavier today than yesterday so I'm sure you are even bigger now. You've been in 0-3 month tops for awhile now but are just now starting to make 0-3 month pants work. For as big as you are, you still have a pretty tiny waist. I really need a 'big and TALL' baby store to find pants that work on your LONG self. 

In other news, you are smiling more and more. You have so many more smiles when you are awake now. It makes it really hard to get much else done because it's so easy to sit and stare at you when you're so smiley. You really are a pretty happy baby most of the time.  (Gosh, I hope I didn't just jinx us.)

It was a busy week but I cant remember too much of what we did. We made it to a couple more basketball games and had another family Christmas. You got to see C&C again and they were still smitten with you. We did a little Christmas shopping and you got to see grandma and SANTA. You were definitely intrigued while meeting Santa for the first time. You just stared and stared at him. He was so glad to meet you and said that he knew you had been a very good boy this year. All you asked for was some good nights sleep. He said he'd try to bring some to mommy too. 

Speaking of which... you have been asleep for two hours now so mommy should get to bed as well! 

Happy FIVE weeks! Let's take this coming week a little slower, shall we?
