Two Months Old

          Colby is 2 months old now and full of personality! He is still such a sweet baby who loves to be held and get lots of attention. He is always moving and always smiling :) I just introduced a binky because he was trying to suck on his fingers. He doesn't love it yet, but he'll get used to it. At his 2 month check up he was 12.6 pounds and 80th percentile for height (again). He is so much bigger than the girls were! At 7 weeks old he started rolling over but not from his tummy to his back...from his back to his tummy! He HATES being on his back! Dad says its because he's a natural wrestler :) I don't know about that, but I do know he is a mover and a shaker!! Colby is so fun!

A Special Lunch for a Special Kid

     Mollie was recognized by her teacher Ms. Leonhart for being an outstanding student all year so we were invited to come eat lunch with her and her teacher in the classroom. We decided that it would be fun to surprise her with a happy meal :) She was pretty excited! Mollie is such a great kid! She's funny, smart, silly, energetic, loving, thoughtful...the list could go on and on. This was a special lunch for a pretty special kid!

One Month Old

     Colby is already one month old! Its hard to explain, but time has flown by  AND it seems as if he's been in our family forever! This little boy has been pure joy!! At his one month check up he weighed 10.6 lbs and was 80th percentile for height. He is a tall boy! He has a very sweet personality BUT is always moving...and I mean always!! He loves his naps, loves to nurse, and loves it when people smile and talk to him :)

First Smile...sort of

     This isn't a great picture, but I was trying to capture what I consider Colby's first smiles :) It might not look like a "real" smile to some, but it does to me! Not sure if it will stick, but he has a one-sided crooked smile!! I love it! This kid cracks me up! It really should be a sin to love a baby this much!

First Easter

     We had a great first Easter as a family of 6! We were invited to various activities with friends but decided to have a nice low-key day as a family. The girls were adorable with Colby, just wanting to stay home and hold him since they were (and I quote) "always at school and can never just love on him!" They are such great big sisters and I know he will just love them! It was an Easter to remember!!

Little Big Man

     Hard to believe our little big man is almost a month old! So glad he is in our family!

Easter Traditions

     Even though we had a new baby, it was still Easter! We had our usual Easter traditions to do. We had our ward Easter breakfast, talent show, and egg hunt PLUS we needed to color eggs. Carli played a piano duet with her friend Kylee Quarnberg (they did an amazing job!) and the girls enjoyed showing off their new brother :) As for coloring Easter eggs, our girls just love it! I honestly don't remember liking it much when I was a kid, but they sure do! It is one of their most favorite holiday traditions. We always make it a point to do it and this year they thought they were old enough to do it without much supervision (actually they thought they could do it with NO supervision, but I felt otherwise so they did it "mostly" by themselves) Sure love these girls and how happy they always are! Its going to be a great Easter!
