I'm so sorry i haven't blogged in over a month....ahhh I am bad. I didn't realize how many people actually read it until i got so many complaints that I wasn't updating regularly. So i promise i will get better. I really will. I love sharing my life with you all, and letting you see McCoy grow because that is truly magical. 

Our first Christmas as a family of four (including bruiser here) was amazing. We decided to be selfish and spend it at home in our new house and boy am i glad we did. We didn't have to worry about going 4 million places and we were able to keep McCoy on his regular schedule and we just got to relax. We NEVER get to do that on the holidays so we both kind of dread them because we are trying to please everyone. This year we thought about us and McCoy and it was the best year yet. (no offense to anyone)

Mac's favorite present was of course wrapping paper and tissue paper! He is sure one spoiled loved little guy. He was gifted everything WE could have dream-t of. But more importantly he was able to spend it with our loved ones. 

Thank you to everyone who took the time to stop by and see Mac. To those we weren't able to see on the day know we loved you and were thinking of you!

I hope you all enjoyed your Christmas just as much as we did. Cannot wait to see what 2014 has in store!

I cannot believe that 4 months ago we were blessed with the most perfect gift from god. McCoy is the center of our whole world. He changes daily and it is so much fun to watch him grow and learn and it is so surreal to me that i am his mama, I sure am lucky. I think he teaches me more than i could ever teach him and he doesn't even know it yet. I could go on an on about how much I love this jelly bean but then we would be here for days. 

Age: 4 Months

Stats: 13.15 lbs. (20th percentile), 24.8 inches (25th percentile), 16.4 head circ (50th percentile)

Clothes: Some 0-3 months onsies still fit, 3-6 months mainly and some 6 month because he is getting so long!

Mister did so good at his 4 month check up. I didn't even cry when he got shots this time! Yes i am proud of myself for that, because i full on bawled at his 2 month appointment. He only cried for a second too!Doc gave him a clean bill of health and we are even seeing an improvement in his acid reflux, and that is such a relief.

Things we are loving...
His bouncer thank you sooo much to our friends the the Darlings for letting us borrow it little man loves it so much he frequently falls asleep in it...
His kick and play
His tortle.... I took him to the ped at 3 months and they told me that the left side of his head was a little flat so we needed to do our best to position him on the right. So we bought an infant positioning beanie at the doctors request and it is helping to fix the problem!

We have only been back in Utah for 6 weeks almost 7 now and guess what these crazy kids did?

That's right we bought a house! Some might think we jumped the gun and we should take sometime to get settled but we found it and fell in love. Almost everything we could have every dreamt of. It is perfect and we are so blessed and excited to be able to raise McCoy here. 

I cannot wait to finish decorating and take some pictures so that all of you can "tour" our home! It is such a blessing that we are able to do this. We got so excited that we are now in a permanent place that we even went and met our neighbors! Guys, that is something that we have never done before! Seriously we never stay in one place very long (no more than a year) so we never get to know the people around us. We got close in Cali but meh our friends were close enough neighbors weren't needed ;)

I hope to have a tour up in the next couple of weeks, and come cool DIY projects that we have been working on. 

So exciting to finally be able to hang things on walls!!

I know i know it has been an extremely long time since i have blogged! What is up with that?

I'm sorry i will get better and set aside time just for blogging especially since so many amazing things have happened. So be prepared for some updated later today and tomorrow. Shoot who know maybe even the day after that if i'm feeling a little crazy ;)

It is so good to be home and enjoy this amazing fall weather. Like i said fall. From what i am hearing it is supposed to snow tomorrow and we definitely are not fans of that business so me and McCoy will be making our way back to California and dad will send money. JOKE. I only semi wish, i'm not prepared for the snow. 

Since the snow will soon be upon us we took extra efforts this weekend to enjoy the nice weather outside with the family. We did some fun Halloween activities and got to see old friends and of course hang out with our awesome family. 

Here are some of the pictures we got to capture all of the fun!

Grandma and Grandpa Sned joined in on the fun for McCoy's first pumpkin patch experience. Because of course he'll remember it ;)

We hope everyone else enjoyed this warm weekend like we did!

Time for an updated again already! I feel like i haven't blogged in forever, maybe because i haven't i really need to keep up on this more!

Age: 3 Months

Stats: 13.0 lbs. (25th percentile), 22 1/2 inches (5th percentile)

Clothes: He is in 0-3 months, 3 months and some 3-6 months. He has massive feet though so his socks are 6 month socks!

Items we are loving: 

• His jumper! Thanks to our awesome friends the Darling's for letting us borrow theirs. McCoy loves it and mama loves it too. I can put him in it and get some laundry done!
• Pottery barn swaddle blankets; they are the only blanket that i can wrap him in for a nap time that he wont bust out of so that i dont have to hold him through every nap
• Our boppy pillow; tummy time essential for the little man who hates tummy time. 
• Hats, lots and lost of hats in this cold weather

We made it back to Utah!

Oh boy was that the longest trip of my life.

We started packing the truck around 5PM Thursday (9/26) night and didn't finish well into Friday morning and then headed out! With a baby and a tired mama and papa it make for a trip that didn't land us back to SLC until 2 am Saturday (9/28) morning. It was a journey that is for sure!

We are so so happy to be back. But i have to say i really miss California already. Two reasons the weather, man i forgot how cold it is in Utah and I am not a fan right about now and neither is McCoy he needs a whole new wardrobe. Second I miss my nice clean organic grocery store right across the street. The Walmart and smiths here just aren't up to par. Makes me feel snooty haha Other than that everything is great and it is so nice being so close to family and friends.

Best part about being back is this reunion.
