2 Month Stats...

My almost 3 year old baby girl... We are in full preparation mode for her birthday party on Saturday...

2 month Stats...
Weight: 12 Lbs 5 oz = 80%
Height: 23 inches = 55%

On Sunday I informed Steve I was finally coming out of the Newborn fog...
I'm not sure if it's from the baby finally getting on a more regular schedule,
or the anxiety medicine the Dr. put me on to overcome my hyperventilating at the thought of
anyone touching or coming near my child for fear of him getting sick...
One thing I know for sure...
I don't want to repeat the whole Primary Children's experience.
I was paranoid before, trust me just ask my husband, but that made it 100% worse.
I would literally start to panic if anyone came near him.
The lady at the grocery store who chose to uncover him almost got taken down by this mama...
I'm feeling a lot more sane. I still freak out a little bit, and prefer to keep him covered in public, and don't really want anyone touching him still... BUT the need to rip peoples heads off has gone away. Baby boy is getting SO BIG!!! He has earned the nick name tank... This kid is going to be just like his daddy, I can already tell. Sienna didn't hit the 12 pound mark until 6 months old, he hit it before 2... He looks a lot older then he is because he has such good head control and he is so big. I'm just not used to having a chunky baby and I love it! Ever since he got sick he feels like someone needs to be holding him at all times. All of the things we spent money on to entertain Sienna doesn't help a bit. I often find myself snuggling him all day and avoiding all the things that I should have done. Luckily for me, my sweet Dr informed my husband to never come home and look around and ask what I did all day... He has been very patient and on the weekends sees what I am dealing with when baby boy screams to be held. Personally I secretly like it. Sienna never wanted to cuddle so I am enjoying every snuggle I get from baby boy...
Sienna is still being so good with baby brother... (Minus the episode we had two days ago of her randomly walking up to him and hitting him on the head...) Her birthday is this Saturday and she couldn't be more excited. She is having a Princess Tea party with all of her cousins and friends and the only thing she asked for is a Cinderella dress... Thanks heavens for Aunt Ruby and Aunt Tasia who went to several stores around Disneyland searching for the whole outfit. Steve was disgusted by how much money we spent on the whole thing... He told me he should have just bought her a prom dress... I kept it to myself just how much my prom dress actually was but I did see my dad hysterically laughing in the background... I'm sure he will enjoy seeing all the things that daddy's little princess will talk him into buying... We decided to take Sienna to Disneyland since her obsession with all things Snow White & Cinderella has taken over our house. We go the first week in April and Sienna has already invited her boyfriend Rexipoo (Rex Mithchell) along... She informed Grandpa that he would be paying for Rex to come along. When Rex's wife Melanie asked if she could come too, things didn't look so hot for her. Now all she can talk about is Disneyland and we're crossing our fingers that Uncle Cody lets the cousins come and join us for our Disneyland adventure. I know Sienna would have so much fun having Brookie, Savie & Porter come with her... So Uncle Cody, stop being a scrooge and commit... :) How many times do your kids get to go to Disneyland with Sienna and mee-mah & Grandpa? (Was that a good plug Kath??? He He...

2 Months Old...

8 Weeks old...


Little Stinker sneeks his hand out of swaddling and always ends up on his stomach...
No matter how many times I flip him back onto his back!
4 Weeks Old...

2 Month update coming tomorrow...
We go for shots so I will know more about how much he has changed...
What I do know... I
I love this Little Man...
What Sienna knows...
"She wants a new brother that doesn't cry..."
So far...
He looks identical to his daddys baby pictures.
The only part of me that I see is my ears and eye lashes...

Go Utes... I mean Cougers....

I've been asking Nicki for this picture since October. I just got it Sunday... So this is Nicki, my dad and baby girl at Nicki's graduation from nursing school... YEAH we are so proud of you Nicki!




Sienna was invited along for a date night with Daddy & Aunt Nicki...
Nicki offered BYU basketball tickets and since the mama is a die hard Utah fan,
Sienna got to go as his date!
They had so much fun, but the highlight of the night was meeting "Cosmo"
Uncle Nate totally hooked Sienna up. He went and rounded up Cosmo to come and meet they baby girl. She LOVED it, but I was told it was a good thing Nate was holding her. She only liked him from the security of his arms.
The minute she walked into the door from the game she went off about how great Cosmo was
and asked if I wanted to go meet him with her tomorrow... So Cute!
I Originally wanted to dress her in head to toe RED but daddy informed me he
wouldn't take her if she wasn't dressed in BLUE!!!
