Weston is 2! (months that is)

I can't believe its been 2 months since our little man was born.  In just this short amount of time, I can honestly say I can't even imagine our life without him.  He has completed this family in so many ways, and our love for him grows and grows every day.  He is such an amazing little boy, so smart and funny. 

Things to remember:
You got your first real boo boo, and although it hurt you bad, I'm pretty sure your dad feels even worse! we cut your fingernails for the 1st time and your poor little pinky finger got in the way of the clippers!  We had to cut a band aid in half to make it small enough to fit on your tiny little finger.

The sounds you are making increase every day, I hear new coo's and awe's all the time.  You are becoming more aware of your surroundings and looking around more.

You have started sleeping for about 7 hour stretches at night, waking up once to eat, then again about the time your papa leaves for work.  He loves it when your awake when he goes to work, it makes his whole day to see you smile at him in the morning.

Our "potty" time is really coming full circle.  Today we even got 2 poo's in the potty!  You know what it means when I set you on your potty and make our special noise.  And when you don't have to go, you let me know :)  I don't always catch every potty, but we are really starting to get this communicating thing down.  I catch almost all of the potty's when you first wake up... You have even gone a whole 4 hour nap and woken up with a dry diaper!  And most of the ones after you eat.  The in-between times are the harder ones, but we are getting better!  You don't really show any signs that you have to go potty so it makes it a little hard, but sometimes I just get the feeling you have to go, we try, and voila! you go!

You aren't too fond of your tummy time quit yet.  While you have the strength to hold up your head (you do it all the time laying on papa's chest!), when I put you on your tummy on the floor, you smother you face in the blanket and freak out.  It's a little easier with the boppy under you, but you kick your feet so much, you slide right off.  I can tell you will be an early crawler tho, when you are on your tummy, you tuck your knee's under yourself and move them back and forth.  Once your arms are strong enough to hold you up, you will be cruising all over this trailer!




We are still in Ely, our 3 week trip is probably going to be about 5.  This last weekend was memorial day weekend.  Unfortunately we didn't get to do much... for 2 reasons.  Mainly because Jake worked all weekend, but more importantly, it snowed! and snowed and snowed and snowed... ALLLL day Sunday it didn't stop.  Almost JUNE and it just piled up! We woke up to about 6 inches of snow on the truck, but it was a really wet snow so it didn't get much deeper.  Plus the ground wasn't cold so it melted off pretty fast.  It made for some really pretty scenery though.

At the entrance to the campground, they have some old railroad equipment.  I wish Wes was old enough to sit up on his owned, it would make for some awfully cute pictures!

It sounds like our next trip will be to Ogden Utah starting next week.  Hopefully it won't take quit a week - Grandma Dolores funeral is the following Saturday.  I'm really hoping I don't have to drive all the way home by myself to make it there!

Until next time...
