Fourth Of JULY!

This year we spent fourth of July in Minnesota on the lake with family. We went on a boat parade in the morning and had breakfast on the boat. We also celebrated my 88 year old Grandmas birthday! This is Joshy's first fourth of July and he LOVED being outside on the lake and being around so many people! We went to see fireworks on the boat at night but Joshy was asleep the whole time so he missed the best part! I'm sure he would have loved seeing all those bright colors in the sky! Oh well, maybe next year.

.Four Fabulous Months.

Well here is my monthly update about Joshy. He is 4 months old today! I just can't believe it! I want time to slow down! He hasn't had his 4 month check up so I don't know his weight or height, but what I do know is that he LOVES his FOOD and if he doesn't get it right when he starts begging for it...well you better watch out because he will scream and scream until he gets it! He also loves to play with his toys, talk for about a half hour in his crib when he wakes up in the morning (it's so cute listening to him just talk away in there), blowing bubbles with his mouth (just like daddy), smiling at anyone who talks or looks at him, taking his daily bath, watching TV in his bumbo, and reading books! I could go on and on!! The one thing he HATES is TAKING NAPS!! What do I do? He has never been great at taking naps. He always has to cry himself to sleep. I guess he doesn't want to miss out on anything going on around him. That is one thing we are going to work on this summer...is nap time! Ha. I do have to say he is an AWESOME sleeper at night. He has slept through the night since he was about 8 weeks old so I can't really complain about that! I just love this little rugrat more and more every second! He is my sweet little sidekick and loves to watch and do everything I do! Mommy and Daddy love you Joshy!

Father's Day Weekend!

Happy Father's Day to the BEST husband and daddy! Joshy loves his dad so much! Josh and Joshy have their special bonding time every morning while I'm gone. They read books, scriptures, play with toys, and take a morning nap together. Josh is such a wonderful daddy and so helpful. We went to Utah for the weekend to celebrate Father's Day with Josh's family. Happy Father's Day to my wonderful daddy who has been such a great example to me in my life! Also Happy Father's Day to the Best Father-in-Law in the world! I feel so blessed to be surrounded by such great people! xoxo

:Three Months:

Wow I can't believe Josh is already 3 months old! He smiles all the time, plays with his toes, likes to play with his toys, watch TV, and he LOVES sucking on his hands and fingers. He can stick his whole fist in his mouth! The other day I was tickling his tummy and he started belly laughing. It was the cutest thing I have ever heard! I love this boy more and more everyday!

Mother's Day!

For Mother's Day Josh surprised me with a beautiful bouquet of flowers that were delivered to me! They were beautiful! Then we went to a yummy restaurant on the Beach in Newport called 21 Oceanfront. We got there and the hostess took us up to the top of the restaurant with a great ocean view and about half way through dinner I realized we were the only people in that area. I asked Josh why are we the only ones up here? He said because I called and told them to make sure we were the only ones eating at the top of the restaurant. I was shocked and thought that was so sweet. (We had Josh junior with us and I had to feed him towards the end of dinner so maybe thats why) haha. 21 Oceanfront was so delicious and such a beautiful restaurant! Best first mother's day! Thanks Babe!

The Cheesecake had that pretty chocolate on top

The weekend in Utah!

This past weekend we went to Utah for Easter and to Bless Joshy. It was his first time flying on the plane and he was an angel! He slept on my chest the whole time! We saw baby Crew for the first time and it was crazy to compare and see how much these babies grow within 3 weeks. Joshy looked like a tank compared to Crew. Joshy got blessed on Easter Sunday at Josh's parents house. It was such a special day and so much fun seeing family and friends.

Josh loves his cousin Blakely!

As you can tell Brody was so interested in Josh haha

He loved the baby bjorn!

He went on a plane for the first time and we decided to put him in the bin and sleep while we put our shoes on and got our stuff. HaHa

I think he likes watching ellen with me.

2 Months of Joy!

I can't believe my baby is two months old already! I know he's still little, but time is going way to fast! Today Josh went to the doctor to get his first shots! It was so sad to see him get poked! He did great though, he only cried for a second! This past week he has noticed his voice! He coos all the time and wants to talk! He has also started smiling at Josh and I when we talk to him. It's so fun to see that smile on his face! Soon he will be laughing at us! We are so blessed to have such a healthy son!!
