Long time, no see!

Well, I have been slacking on the blog this summer! I guess because I've been having such a good time with Jake everyday! But, school started again today, so it's back to the grindstone! I'm working 2.5 days a week, which is just enough!

Jake is 5 months old now (pictures to come soon!) - he's a chatterbox, he's starting to sit on his own, rolling over occasionally, eating rice cereal, and just being totally cute! I can't believe how quickly he's changing and growing.

One other exciting thing in our family is that we have decided to put our townhome up for sale...we need more room!! Hopefully we'll get a good buyer soon so that we can find a great new place for us!

Jake's blessing day

All bundled up and ready for bed.

Showing off in his new hat!

Chillin in St. Geroge

Loving the water!

Welcome summer!

The last 6 weeks have been busy since I had to go back to work. But, now I have 2.5 months off to just enjoy being a mommy...I'm sooo excited! (I will be going back to work in the fall, but only part time - not too shabby!)

Jake is growing so fast - he'll be 3 months old in 2 days!! At his 2 month check-up he weighed 11 lbs. 2 oz. and was 23 inches long. He's smiling, cooing, laughing, squealing, sucking on his fingers, trying to grab things, sleeping much longer at night now (thank heavens!), basically growing and learning new things. (We think he's brilliant!) It's fun to see him change :-)

One Month Old

It's hard to believe that it's already been a month since Jake was born - and yet it seems like he's always been here! He's a good boy - he just cries for the big 3: food, sleep, and messy diapers. He is starting to smile and coo now and then, and when he's awake he is so attentive and just seems to be taking everything in. We're adjusting to the lack of sleep but are loving every minute with our son.

Our Little Man

First night home, chillin with dad.

Sleepy boy.

Happy St. Patrick's Day!

All tuckered out.
