Brayden, Veronica Mars, Michael J. Fox, and Clint Eastwood

What could these people have in common? Well, this is how I have been spending my time the last week. Being with Brayden, watching the series Veronica Mars, reading Always Looking Up by Michael J. Fox and tonight watching Gran Torino.

Here is another picture of my little cutie-pie. I will hopefully post more pics soon- we have some cute ones from his first bath and then we got pictures taken at Target on Monday, so I will scan and post those when we get them. I will admit to having discouraging moments, mostly on days where he wants to feed seemingly all day, but for the most part I am just so happy being his mom!



I've seen the whole series before, but decided to watch it again. I've been watching a lot of tv and movies while nursing. This is one of my favorite shows. Next up is either Arrested Development (which I have seen before also), or 30 Rock if I can get it from the library.



This is a great book. I really admire how well he has dealt with what life has dealt him. I know people would argue his fame has made his sutation easier to deal with, but I still respect the optimism he has been able to maintain in spite of his disease.



I will preface this by saying this movie is rated R. There is a lot of swearing, and violence as well. However, it has a great message. It's about an old man who is both racist and stuck in his ways (played brillantly by Clint Eastwood). His wife dies and he gets "stuck" dealing with the Hmong family next door.

He is too cute. Thanks for letting me hold him for so long. He is such a good baby. After we left your house I was holding my 4 month old nephew, not as content, but about the same size. He is a big boy.
