3 Months

This little sweetheart is melting everyone's hearts.
*He smiles a LOT and so easy. You just look in his direction and he's bound to give you a sweet little smile.
*Loves to suck on his hands and fingers.
*Still eating about every 4-5 hours, even at night.
*Started grabbing for his toys
*Hating tummy time still, but is getting better at it and will do it for longer periods of time (like 5 minutes, ha)
*Rolled from his stomach to his back twice, but hasn't again yet
*Has serious old man hair syndrome with a comb-over and lots of patchy bald spots
*Loves watching his whirlwind sister
*Getting better at sitting in the bumbo without falling over
*Is very alert and loves to be facing out looking around. No more snuggles and cuddles from this little man
*Size 1 Diapers
*All out of newborn clothes, mostly right at 0-3 month clothes and some 3-6
*Wakes up about once a night, sometimes twice but goes right back to sleep after being fed. Hours of sleep are about 9pm-7am
*Hates being rocked, never calms him down. Usually bouncing and/or walking is what does the trick, and always swaddled with a binky
*Has cute little giggles when you play peek-a-boo or tickle his neck/legs

Outfits

Lyla has really been into changing her clothes, and then changing them again, ALL DAY LONG. She loves it. She will put on one outfit, then see something else and immediately take off the prior clothing item and replace it with the new one. This causes for clothes strewn about the house, all half dirty, and then ending up with a beauty of an ensemble like the one above. 

And then she looks at herself in the mirror and says "oh tute" (cute)

Saying Goodbye to CO

 I traveled to CO to say goodbye to my childhood home as my parents move to Utah in a week. It was sad to say goodbye to the only place that I called home. I had lived there since I was 6.

I had to take pictures of some of the little things that made it ours. 

Here is a few wood posts in the basement that Wally and I marked our height and ages over the years

When I was a teenager I started getting into wanting to decorate. My mom let me pick out my first queen bed frame, bed spread, curtains and lamp. These are the curtains I picked out that matched both the bed spread and lamp. It was a really popular print at the time

This was still hanging on the wall behind the door in my room. One of the last things that was actually still on the wall since my parents had started packing everything up already. It reminds me of being a teenager and the great times I had in Young Womens. I had amazing leaders and will miss going to my "home ward" and seeing them. I was close with a lot of people in that ward.

Here is part of the back yard. I planted the "Christmas" tree in the corner there.

The back of the house. I love that Louie is peeking out the back door. He is going to be one lost puppy when they move away and he doesn't know where to scratch to go outside, that there isn't the perfect window to look out and bark and screech at the rabbits that run by the front yard, or where to bang the door that has his food in it telling us he's hungry.

 McKay got to take advantage of their nice deep kitchen sink and take his first sink bath. 

He liked it, as usual.

 

And one last sweet picture from the trip. Grandpa to grandson, just talkin about life

 

I will dearly miss this house. Not really the house, just the memories stored there. 

A young couple moved in, their first home. I hope that they can continue to live their married life and raise children there adding to the memories.  Goodbye Colorado. Goodbye 9787 S. Foxhill Cir. Someday I'll come back and drive by just to say hello :) Until then, thanks for all the memories.

Easter

We started off the Easter weekend with dying eggs with the Nelson's! We had a great time chatting it up and having dinner and then tried to dye eggs with 2 two-yr olds and a 4 yr old :)

It was Lyla's first time dying eggs

Seeing how many eggs fit into one dye, haha

The Easter Bunny visited today and spoiled Lyla with a new bike! And her Easter basket is sitting on the seat with a little ladybug purse in it. She definitely got spoiled this year, but it was so much fun watching her get so excited about her bike when she saw it

Trying it out. We need to work on how to pedal still

For dinner we went to Aunt Penny's, had a delicious meal, and had an egg hunt afterward

We also played outside after the hunt since it was a beautiful 75 degrees today! These two little cousins sure love each other. Lyla is always wanting to give Crew lots of hugs

Not sure why the picture turned out glowing,
but still is an adorable picture of my two little cuties

Work and a Website

Josh brought to my attention that our blog has become "one of those blogs" where every post is about the kids and nothing else....i swore mine wouldn't ever turn into that, but its true, it has. So here is a post to break it up a little.

This should have been posted in January, since that's when he got the job, but Josh started working at a firm called JD Milliner & Associates. He is able to bring in his own clients and do work on his own under supervision of the main guy, but this gives him a lot more freedom than a normal firm. It is just what Josh needed and wanted and is helping him go in the direction of starting his own firm one day.

This is a picture of his first official case file :) Since then he has become quite busy with both business and bankruptcy cases. He also just got his website up live this week. It still needs to be finished and change some things on it, but its actually up and live and we are so excited!

He also is still working for Darts IP and does that in between working on cases at the office. He is a busy man, but still makes lots of time for the fam and we are looking forward to bigger paychecks in the next few months so we can hopefully get out of this hole of an apartment!

I still can't believe I married a lawyer, I'm so lucky :) Isn't he handsome too?!
