California

Teague and I flew to California on Saturday morning so that we could be at Rilan's 2nd birthday party. Rilan knew about her new cousin and was so excited to meet him. She was so darn cute with Teague. She loved him.
On Sunday, my dad and step mom Diana, threw Teague a welcome party with my dad's side of the family. It was a really nice afternoon. I loved seeing my aunts and my cousins. I never really realize how much I miss my extended family until I am with them. Teague made out with some great gifts. Thanks to Dad and Diana for putting that on for us! And thank you everyone for coming!
Monday and Tuesday we just hung out with family and friends. I wish we could have stayed longer but I had a long to-do list that my mom was coming back to Utah to help me with.
We drove to Spanish Fork on Wednesday. It took us 12 hours with the little guy. Normally it takes about 9. He was such a good little traveler and Nomee rewarded him with lots of clothes when we stopped at the outlets!!!!
Teague didn't sleep well at all that night...I swear he was up every hour....BUT last night, he slept 9 HOURS!!!! Yes, you read that right, 9 hours......Oh I hope that stays the norm!!!!
Here are just a few recent pictures.............

This was Teague's outfit for the rodeo....cutest John Deere boots!

Camping!!!

This is the first picture I have taken of us camping. Teague has gone camping about 4 times now and started when he was only 2 weeks old. He loves camping, probably because he gets held ALL the time. Here we are up at Sheep Creek. We had a great time just relaxing and hanging out with Daron's family. I love it up there because the dogs get to run around and have fun and I just get to chill out. WE LOVE CAMPING!!!

2 Months.......... ALREADY!!!!


Our sweet, loving, ADORABLE, little boy is now 2 months old. I seriously can't even believe it. It took FOREVER for him to get here (it seemed) and now he is growing WAY too fast. Time is flying. Teague is HUGE and I love him. His rolls ALL over his little body are just adorable. He is such a sweet, happy, cuddly little boy and he loves his mom and dad. He has started to smile a ton. He loves laying on the ground, rolling (with help) from his belly to his back. When he is on his belly, his little legs can't move fast enough. He will lift his head for a while and look around, but then he gets tired. He loves his bath. He no longer sits in the net in the bath, he is all the way in and he loves it. He splashes the whole time. I can't believe this little angel is ALL OURS. I don't know what we did to deserve him but I am glad that he is ours. We love our little Teague!!!!! Oh ya.. STATS: Teague now weighs 14 pounds 12 ounces and is 24 1/4 inches long..... and you thought I was lying when I said he is HUGE!!!

We LOVE our BOB!!!!



My mom's best friend Sharon (AKA Shabob or Bob, my second mom) came in to town on Monday all the way from California JUST to babysit Teague. I called her a few weeks in advance to ask if she would like to babysit Teague while I went to my PESTL class from 8am to 4pm everyday for a week. She, of course, was more than willing!
Teague loved hanging out with his Bob! They played and talked all day long....and of course he took his little naps. Bob said she swears his hair grew an inch while she was in town and he wants to crawl already!!!! Bob was in heaven, I think, because she was able to love, hug, and kiss on him ALL DAY long!
We are so grateful that Bob came into town to watch our little guy. We didn't feel worried AT ALL that he was home with her, I love that I felt so comfortable leaving my little guy with someone. We are so lucky to have her in our lives. We love our Bob!!!!

Bath Time!!!



Teague HATED getting baths at first. He really hated the sponge baths, but even after he moved into his bath, he wasn't thrilled to get bathed. For the last couple weeks, he has really begun to LOVE getting bathed. He always hangs his legs over the side of the net to dangle in the water. I love to bathe him every night before bed because he is so calm and I can tell he really loves it, plus he is relaxed and ready to eat and go to bed afterward.

Oh Cookie!

So, the other night we took Cookie and Paisley to the river to go swimming. It's our nightly routine because they LOVE to swim and chase rocks in the river. After we took them to the river, we locked them in the laundry room and garage so that they could dry off before coming in the house. I heard some crying, so asked Daron to go check on them and make sure that they were both ok. Paisley was at the door wanting to come in and Cookie was found like this......




She was obviously trying to tell Daron that
she wanted to go for a ride on the 4-wheeler.
She is too funny! She loves riding on the wheeler
with Daron. She always sits right there when
she is riding. I just love this funny girl!
