Joey’s First Play Date
We met up with Ari Feldman yesterday for our first playdate. Ari is just 2 weeks younger than Joey. The boys got along great (even shared toys) and the mom’s had fun too!

Single Mom for the Weekend…
Greg headed to L.A. last weekend for our nephew’s bris. I stayed in Chicago with Joey because Greg was terrified of being trapped on a plane with Joey for 4+ hours. Everyone (including Zeyde) helped me all weekend long…
Zeyda babysat for 1.5 hours. He even survived a poop diaper! Bubbie said this was a first for him. Everything went smoothly until he called us, screaming (over Joey’s cries) “I’ve lost control! Get home NOW!!” By the time we got home, Joey was calm.

Aunt Lori and Uncle Vinnie took over babysitting duty Sunday morning so I could sleep in. Hopefully those “deadbeats” will have a baby of their own soon 🙂
The Weil’s came to spend Sunday afternoon!
It wasn’t too hot so Joey got to hang out on the porch with us all day!

Great Lunch Break…
Stacy’s power went off in her office building today so she got to spend her lunch hour with us (notice her goofy face in the mirror)!

Joey’s 3 Months Old!
We can’t believe Joey’s 3 months old today. We may be biased, but isn’t he cuter every day???
I tried real hard to get a great video of Joey at 3 months…
This was the best I could do 🙂

Quality Time Together
I go back to work in just 2 weeks (cannot believe Joey’s almost 3 months old) so we’re taking advantage of every moment together…

Joey visits the Shedd!
This morning Joey and I walked to the grocery store to meet our cousin Judy. She’s a really great Diet Coach and she’s helping the Goodman’s get back on track.
Aunt Cari took Joey out for another adventure this afternoon…Since Joey loved the fish so much at the zoo last week, the Shedd Aquarium was the next adventure on the list…I’m loving the fact that Cari has all of this free time. I’m sure she’d prefer to be employed (anyone looking for an awesome lawyer??), but she’s also loving spending so much time with her favorite nephew.

They even picked Greg up from work!
Here’s a video of Joey watching the fish…He also appears very hungry. Will he love sushi as much as his dad and grandpa?

J. Goodman as D. Rose
Ricky picked this up for Joey long before Joey arrived…Bubbie Gorgeous put it in one of her “safe places” and didn’t find it until this weekend. Fortunately, the 24 month jersey just fits Joey the Giant…

Aunts Cari/Abby Fun Day!
Abby and Cari took Joey to Lincoln Park Zoo today. They (Abby and Cari) had an absolute blast…Joey had fun too! He didn’t cry once while he was with his Aunts.
Despite the fact that the Aunts couldn’t collapse the stroller, they really took great care of him all day long. He slept for the first few hours, but woke up just in time to enjoy the fish (his favorite) and a few other exhibits. See below for some great moments from today…
The Aunts thought Joey was a little warm in his outfit, so they changed him. Well, tried to…

Finally awake and ready to see EVERYTHING!
Joey loved seeing new things!

Joey’s Wild Night Out…
Joey came with me to a jewelry (Stella & Dot) / baby clothes (Crabby Abbey) party at Aunt Lori’s house last night. All of the girls had a great time hanging with him.
Joey helped Aunt Michy make sure the bar was fully stocked…

Joey’s a GREAT sleeper
Joey’s great a sleeper…He came out of the womb sleeping 4 hours at a time, then quickly moved to 6. These days, he averages 8, with a quick feeding back back to bed for another few hours. Because he sleeps so much at night, he eats a ton (and often) when he’s awake. I certainly cannot complain about this, as I know how lucky I am. I’m crossing my fingers that he will soon sleep through the night, as I return to work in just 3 weeks!

Best Part About Having a Kid…
Greg and I had a blast tonight putting Joey’s pants on his head. Who would have thought such a silly thing could be so much fun? Despite the serious face in the picture below, Joey was cracking up right along with us.

Joey Reaches Out
Joey’s 11 weeks old today. Greg and I were able to witness a really cool development. He’s now reaching for things…The first thing he reached for was Daddy’s hand!
