I know I know

I know I post WAY too many pictures but I have to. This is my journal/scrapbook. Plus who doesn't love looking at pictures!?! I thought I had something to write about but my brain left me 12 months ago and hasn't returned so.......

I'll have to get a video of him trying to talk to his mobile. Pretty funny.
He's helping me wash dishes!
I took him to his first soccer game. Jaxon's the all-star. That's no joke. That kid has talent! He is pretty much good at whatever he does. I'm a little jealous. (yeah I know he is only 6)
Bryn was taking pictures. She did pretty good if you ask me.

So humble. You would never of guessed that this picture was taken right after he scored a goal.

2 Month Appointment

Monday we went to the Doctor for Baine's 2 month appointment, I lost my dang papers so I can't remember the exact % of everything but he weighs 13 lbs - 84%, his length 23" - 50%, his head 15" and I don't remember what % that was. Last time his weight and head were both in the 50% and his length was in the 24%. So he's growing good. I was really worried about his weight when they told me he was 13lbs. Dr. Clark assured me that it was just fine and that breast fed babies gain a lot at first but then level out. So I feel better about that.

Baine also got his 4 immunizations. He loved that stuff that they have them drink. He screamed for the shots. When they were over and I was getting him dressed I gave him some Tylenol and he calmed right down. I gave him his binkie (I don't know how you spell binkie) and I have never seen him suck on it so hard. When we walked out we ran into Grandma Audrey and she was asking him how the shots were and he started talking back but he sounded like he wanted to cry. He was telling her ALL about it. It was so funny!

Well this past week has been good. A little crazy but good. Brady leaves me from 5ish to 9ish everyday. It makes for long days for him. They're long for me too, despite what he thinks. I can't wait until we are in our house so we can enjoy our time together again. I try to go there as much as I can. I don't do anything but get in the way. For some reason though Brady likes it and keeps telling me to come "help".

Baine is growing like a weed. I find out tomorrow what percentile he is in everything. Last appointment he was in the 50th in all of them. Exciting! I started trying to get him to nap in his bed. After a lot of crying and me feeling bad, it seems that he's getting the hang of it.

I think he has his mom's neediness because sometimes he just whines until I go talk to him then he gives me great big smiles and starts talking back. It's worth the crying and whining to see him cheesing it.

As for me, I can't wait until I have a sink and a chair again. Something about washing everyones hair in the tub is just getting old. I'm staying busy enough for what I want. It's amazing to me all my clients who are driving out here, especially if they are at the other end of town. That was the one thing I didn't want to give up. Eventually your clients turn into your friends and I was going to miss that.

More Pictures

The house is coming along good. We should be in by the end of the month. It's all up to Brady now. He is pretty much doing the rest of it so we'll see. It's looking good. I'll have to get a picture of the front when all the siding is on. Hopefully it's all on by Monday.

Baine's Blessing

We blessed Baine on September 5th. Grandpa Brooks blessed him. He was a little late because he got the times mixed up. I'm just glad he made it, and made it there safely. He has a lot going on right now since he got a new calling to be a Bishop of a student ward. Baine cried through the prayer. I had kept him up all morning and fed him right before we left so that he would fall asleep and be content during the blessing. Well it didn't work out. That's ok, it was still a good blessing and then he fell asleep right after.

Here are some "not so wonderful pictures" of the dinner after. I tried to get a picture of everyone who came. Let's just say I'm no photographer.
Molly and Aunt Nancy. Molly thinks she's a big girl already and loves to hold Baine. She is really into babies right now. Most kids when their parents are holding a baby they get jealous and want there Mommy or Daddy to give the baby up and hold them instead. Well not Molly, she is jealous and wants the baby.
Ronin and Bryn. This girl is going to be a great babysitter one day!

Jaxon

Nancy, Phil, Kara and Liza

One day when I figure out how to make a picture collage my posts won't be so long.
