The Chester Diaries: Celebrating the feast and famine known as new motherhood.

Welcome to my blog! My name is Lara and I gave birth in April, 2010 to a baby boy. I've been calling him "Chester" since he was a little chestnut in my tummy. To commemorate his three month birthday, I wanted to write about the crazy, joyous and exhausting ride I've been having as a first-time mom. If you're interested in reading about the highs and lows of uncharted mommy territory as well as my unhealthy obsession with shopping, (particularly baby gear), reviews, and pop culture observations, then you've come to the right place. Be warned: This cute kid has a mommy who can be a bit of a potty mouth.

Note: This blog is no longer active but please enjoy Chester's journey from 3 months to 2+ years.

8 months: The recap

It's amazing how quickly the month has whizzed by!



The most notable thing about Chester is what a happy kid he is turning into.


Until the teeth showed up.


They only showed up on the lower level...




But these two seemingly harmless little inhabitants changed the game.




Suddenly, our happy kid was not that happy...



And it only got worse...



Chester spent most of the time with something - anything - stuffed in his mouth...

 
Lucky he had lots of distractions.





Having his way with the mobile. 

Look at that stare-down!


I found him on Christmas eve morning awake, having turned his mobile on.


Caught in the act!



He's been trying to crawl for the past few weeks.  He has all the components at his disposal.  He just hasn't put it together.



Luckily he has new friends to keep him occupied. 


Ah...remotes.  A boy's best friend.


We're excited to see what adventures this next month holds!
