3 Months Old!

Happy 3 Month Birthday Scotty!!

These last 3 months have flown by! But then again, it seems like we've always had him, like he's always been a part of our family! (It seems like I've always had Jeff too but I haven't even known him 2 years!)

• Scotty is no longer content laying there just being cute. He wants to sit or stand up *all* the time! He also loves to walk around. (all with our help of course!)
• He laughs a lot more often now
• He smiles like crazy and *always* has big smiles for his mommy :)
• He loves grabbing things, especially mommy's hair, necklace and earrings
• He gives nice open-mouthed kisses (bleh, haha)
• He's very strong
• He almost has the rolling over thing down. But when he's on his tummy he gets mad and just wants to stand up!
• He's really good at sitting up in the bumbo and without the bumbo his sitting by himself record is 5 seconds! haha 

• He talks alot too! One day he talked my ear off for about 15 minutes straight! It was so funny. We can carry on full conversations! I just don't know what they're about... ;)
• He loves when Daddy plays airplane with him
• He's started teething
• He's very curious
• He's a cuddle bug

I can't believe how fast he's growing up!! What happened to my little baby?? He really is the best baby a mommy could ask for. 

Mommy and Daddy love you Scotty!!

"Don't Blink!"

There's a country song that says, "Don't blink, Life Goes Faster Than You Think"
Seriously. Scotty is almost 11 weeks now! Time flies so fast it's crazy! We're just trying to enjoy every moment of it.

Our little boy has grown so much!

At his 2 month check up:

Weight: 13 lbs 12 oz - 90th Percentile (that's my boy! haha)
Height: 24 in. - 82nd Percentile
Head - I don't remember I'd have to look at the paper but it was only the 75th percentile

He's also learning new things!

• At 10 weeks he started rolling over from his tummy to his back!
• He also started laughing!! It's the cutest thing. When we load the video to the computer I'll post some of them. He just cracks up. I love the sound of a baby laughing. To me, it is one of the sweetest sounds in the world.
• He loves blowing spit bubbles...he thinks it's hilarious!
• He loves books and toys
• He likes licking his monkeys on his carseat straps (kind of gross I know, but funny)
• He holds his head up so well
• He smiles all the time
• He sleeps through the night (and has been since about 3 weeks!)
• He's just perfect!

We love our little boy so much!!!!

PS Jeff and I are still crazy about each other :) Just with such limited time, I can only blog a little and I know you all would prefer to hear about our cute baby instead of us being all mushy ;)

Happy Baby

I don't have time to write a post right now, but I thought it was time to put something happy up after that last post.

Here's our happy baby at 8 weeks!

"Who you lookin' at?"

Just Kidding!!

Isn't he adorable???

Happy 1 Week!!

These pictures are of Scotty any where from 5 hours old to 5 days old

Scotty is 1 week old today! I can't even believe it. Time has flown by already. I know it's only been a week since he was born but it feels like we've had him forever. It's This little boy has brought us so much joy! I didn't know it was possible to love someone like this. Every time I think "How could I love any more than I already do?" But each day the love for this little boy and his daddy grows deeper and deeper. Scott really has the most amazing daddy. Jeff is the best dad a kid could ask for and a better husband than a wife could ever dream of. I am the luckiest woman ever. 

I love my men!!!

30 Weeks

Here's an updated picture... Liz at 30 weeks and our sister in law Amy who's about to pop any day now!

Thanks Staci for the picture!

(Try to ignore my shirt. I didn't realize it was doing funky things!)

Counting Down

Last year was the first year I didn't have a countdown to my birthday. With dating Jeff and getting engaged, I had much better things to countdown to...like our wedding!

This year, who cares about my birthday. I'm looking forward to the birthday of our precious little boy! Only 110 days (give or take a few!) left or 15.5 weeks or 3.5 months. However you want to look at it : )

Oh my little baby boy how I am so anxious for February to come so I can finally hold you in my arms (instead of having you bounce on my bladder). Your daddy is really looking forward to you as well. He already loves talking to you and kissing you. He's going to be the best daddy--he's already the best husband :)

and PS
There are only 4 days left until my birthday :)

I used to be this cute :)

Baby Brayden

There is just one problem having the same OBGYN as your sister-in-law... if she goes into labor the same time as your monthly dr's appointment, she gets the doctor :) I didn't get to see my doctor the previous appointment either, but at least this time I approved of his excuse for being absent.

This little boy came into the world

Our New Nephew

Isn't he beautiful?? He's just perfect. His parents couldn't be happier. It was a long (we're talking years), painful, tearful journey to bring him into this world. He's brought so much joy with him though. He's a precious bit of heaven that Heavenly Father thought the world (and 2 wonderful parents) needed right now.
He is just the cutest baby. I am smitten :)

**Word to the wise Brayden, you've got competition coming in about 17 weeks so enjoy it while you can ;)

Our Gummy Bear: 8 weeks, 2 cm long

Surprisingly enough, we went back at 18 weeks and found this!

A baby!

The doctor says everything is looking great! He's healthy and very active. His favorite past time is kicking mommy's insides. He's already very strong!

We are so excited for our little man to make his entrance into the world! He should be joining us around Feb 26, 2011. Just a couple days after Jeff's birthday... then it can be a happy birthday for both my men!!
