Easter

We didn't do much for Easter but the Easter Bunny came and he even sent a basket up from Vegas too! Here are a few shots of our little man:
This is his basket from Vegas! Thanks Grandma!

and this is the one the Easter Bunny brought him in Cedar:

Here is he little stud in his Easter outfit and hands that blur in just about every picture now! :)

Valentins Day

I'm finally getting around to posting a few things. May was an AWFUL month and therefore I had not motivation to write about life! For Valentine's Day Jeff got me a night out and had my mom watch Talon. It was scheduled for his spring break and so very needed!
We stayed at the Palms in a beautiful suit...

went to Garduno's for dinner...

and then the Blue Man Group...

We had a blast and I survived my first night away from my little man!

Mommy FAIL

This little guy

along with my keys AND cell phone got locked in my car today. For about 20 minuets. It was traumatic for us both! Can we say BIG mommy fail!?!

It's all down hill from here

With my 20's anyway. I had a fabulous birthday yet again! Talon and I got to go to lunch with Jeff at Costa Vida, then got a surprise visit from my parents. We then went to Pizza Factory for dinner and Jeff was able to meet us after class for dessert.
Jeff spoiled me again by surprising me with a Kindle and an adapter for my car so I can listen to my ipod because we all know how great the music is in this town!
And at the end of the night we snapped this photo and I love it.

It is a perfect snap shot of our lives right now, no bedding, bare walls, trying to get little T to sleep and the dog in the middle! Oh how life changes!

2 months!

Talon my little guy, you are two months old already. I cannot believe how fast it has gone by! You are starting to develop such a personality. Every morning you wake me up with your sweet smile and we have a nice little chat. I love to hear you talk and coo and when you get so excited about things you really get those arms and legs moving! You are growing stronger every day and have pretty good control of your head. I know  you won't be a cuddly baby for much longer so I am content with sitting and holding you as you sleep at least once a day. I have tried putting you in your crib to sleep but the longest you have gone is about an hour. We'll keep working on getting you to like your crib, but as long as you like your bassinet and you don't roll over I think we'll be okay! You had your two month check yesterday and you are growing steady. I was a little worried because lately you don't nurse as long, but i was reassured as we looked at your growth chart. You are a healthy little boy who just eats fast, lucky for mom! Your stats at two months are:
weight: 11 pounds 11 oz.  50 percentile
height: 24 1/2 inches  95 percentile
what can I say we grow them tall and skinny! I am happy to report you do have one little roll on each of your thighs, but i'm not sure you will get too many more! I just love you so much little guy and am so blessed to be your mama!
Some things you have started to do the first two months of your life:
You play with and rub your hair when you are sleepy
You spit out your binky to replace it with your fingers

You hold on to my shirt or fingers while you eat
You stated to rub your eyes when you're sleepy
0-3 month clothes are getting too small!
You have bright blue eyes

You have found you voice and I can't wait to get more sounds from you!
During tummy time you focus on trying to eat the mat/blanket
No matter who has you if you hear my voice you look for me
You have quite the scowl and it makes me laugh
You smile! That first smile melted my heart and they still do!
You kick and coo and move your arms like crazy
You don't love tummy time so much right now

You are such a sweet little boy and we are lucky to be your parents! We love you Talon!

Talon's Blessing Day

This past Sunday we were able to bless our little man. We were blessed to have almost all of our immediate family here and some extended family and friends. Everyone that came had to travel a couple of hours, and on Super bowl Sunday, that just goes to show just how loved Talon is!
Jeff gave an amazing blessing and was glad Talon was so good! We are so blessed to have this little guy in our lives, and for the opportunity to watch him grow.

The stud in the same outfit his dad wore when he was blessed!

 Most of the group that was here for Talon

It really was a beautiful day. We have such amazing families that have been more help than we could have asked for. I know I'm one lucky girl to be surrounded by great people and for a husband that is a constant example to me. I'm thankful every day that he is the Father to Talon and my Husband! We're one lucky bunch!

Big 4

My little Talon turned 4 weeks on Thursday, the same day my brother welcomed their sweet little boy into their family! All this time I thought Talon was still so new and small... until I held their new little guy. It made me so sad to really see how fast they grow. He is such a sweet boy I just love watching him and his cute face! I have been lucky to spend some time in Vegas and he got to meet everyone that wasn't able to come up when he was born. He has changed so much in such a short time, and I swear he thinks he is so much bigger than he is with the things he tries to do already! Slow down little man, it makes my heart ache knowing you're not going to just snuggle with me all day much quicker than I would like.
Anyway here are some pictures, just for fun!
