FIRST RACE!

Here's daddy and Ethan after the race waiting for the awards to start.
Ethan still sleeping after the race. He was being such a good baby!
Getting Ethan ready to leave for the race. He slept the whole time I was dressing him. I had to really bundle him up it was cold that morning.
On Saturday Ryan and I ran in our first race of the year! It was so much fun. Ethan did great. Poor little guy though he got his shots on Friday and they made him really sleepy so he slept pretty much the whole time that we were running. But during the prize give aways, I had to go and feed Ethan his bottle, and while I was feeding him he messed in his pants, but what I didn't realize until after he was done with his bottle was that it was a major blow out. It was hilarious to watch Ryan have a hard time with it. So I had to change the poor little guy in the car and get him all cleaned up before I could put him in his car seat. We should have gotten pictures of that whole ordeal. It was pretty funny looking back on it now. At the time I didn't think so while Ryan was sitting there laughing!

First Hike!!!!

I love this picture of the pelican in the water! We kind of scared it away on accident.

There was so much water that it was flowing over the road here.
I know I'm a dork but this rock was fun to stand on and I was proud of myself for being able to climb up on it.
This is where we stopped to eat our dinner on the hike. It was a pretty view.
We were close to an edge in this picture.

On Monday night for family night Ryan and I went on a hike. It was a four mile hike up the canyon. It was pretty hard for me, I am actually still sore from it, but it was nice to be able to go hiking again. I have missed going in the mountains here in Logan. The weather was perfect it wasn't to hot or to cold. I loved it. Ethan is in Idaho right now with my mom and dad, because they wanted to spend time with him, and since I am back to work it worked perfectly for them to watch him this week for us. I really appreciate their help. It is hard though because I miss my baby like crazy! Ryan is going to Blackfoot today and I will be going up there on Friday! We are just trying to keep ourselves busy. I can't wait to see my baby again, it has been really weird without him.

SITTING UP

This picture is of me trying to get him loaded into his car seat because I needed to run some errands, and he was sleeping the whole time that I unwrapped him and loaded him in his car seat. This is what he looked like when I unwrapped him from his blanket. He usually wakes up right away when I unwrap him but not this time.
This was the first time that I sat him up on the couch like this and he looked so cute sitting there all by himself. As you can see those jeans are getting a little tight around the middle. I love them on him though so I keep putting them on as long as they still fit.
Look at those cute cheeks. I love having him get bigger like this.
He looks so small sitting on the big couch.

This is my favorite picture of him sitting on the couch looking intently at something. I was trying to get him to smile but he just wasn't having it!
He started slipping down in this picture! I love watching him grow up so fast. It is going to be fun when he keeps getting more interactive with us. I'm sad though because he is going to get his 2 month shots tomorrow. I hope it goes okay for him. I don't want a sad baby!

BIRD NEST


One day I was leaving our house out the front door to go running, and right as I opened it this little sparrow goes flying right past my head and scared me to death. I ran in and told Ryan that I thought there was a birds nest in our vent. So he came out and we were looking around and the lamp above our front door is were the little birds decided to make their home. We have been noticing a mess on our front porch but we couldn't figure it out. When we found their nest Ryan was like well maybe they haven't laid eggs yet and we can just move it to our tree. But when he looked in there this is what he found two little baby eggs! I'm so excited for them to hatch it is fun to have little birds chirping on our front porch!

FUN PICS!!!


Giving the thumbs up here.
Ethan loves spending time with Daddy! And Daddy loves spending time with him!!

Here he is right after his tubby!! He looks so cute. He was starting to get mad if you can't tell!

I love this little outfit with these shorts. It was finally a nice enough day to wear these cute shorts!
He is really filling out his pajamas, I love it.
Here he is doing his usually stretching right after he wakes up!
I love him in this little outfit that my friend gave me. He doesn't fit into it anymore it is sad to me.
You can tell it is getting tighter in this picture.
He looks so relaxed in this picture.
Hanging out with mommy!


He's a little stud in this picture. You can really see his double chin here.

CRAZY HAIR!!!!



One weekend, we were staying in a hotel because Ryan's grandpa passed away and Ethan hated being away from home. He wouldn't sleep at all but finally he feel asleep in my arms, and it was so funny because his hair looked like he had stuck his finger in the socket! If you look really close you can see it sticking up on the side and the top of his head. He is so funny!

MORE OF ETHAN!!

It's always fun to take pictures of the different poses that Ethan makes while he is sleeping. He is so cute
Ho loves to have his hands over his face while he sleeps.
I thought this picture was sweet of his little hands curled up under his chin.
This is cuddle time with daddy after Ryan comes home from work. It looks like Ethan is trying to shove him away in this picture!
Ryan dressed Ethan this day. It was funny to see those shoes on him. They are way to big right now. They are the shoes my mom got me and I can't wait until they really do fit him!
Just hanging out on the couch with his huge shoes that dad made him wear!
Sleeping in his bed looking so peaceful! Wish he slept all night like this!:)
He has so much hair and it surprises me because I honestly thought that he would be bald. Nope he has spikey hair all of the time!
He was smiling in his sleep while I was watching him I was glad that I caught it on camera!
It looks like he is signing "What's UP" with his hand on his bottle!


This is him getting his first bath at home he didn't like it at all. He is just barely starting to enjoy bath time now. He will just sit in the bath tub now and usually smile when the warm water hits him. I love it! It's his bed time routine to get a bath, then his bottle, then a song, and then it's time to sleep he usually does pretty good with that. And that first sleep that he does at night is about 5 hours, and then after that he wakes up about every three hours. He is starting to better and better. I just can't wait to have him sleeping through the night. Especially now that I am back to work!
