Memorial Day

After our little guy's Memorial Day nap we went to Great Falls National Park with my family and had a great time!  I should have brought the tripod out of the car for a better picture of the falls.  Maybe it's cause I'm pregnant but it didn't seem so simple in the moment.


Our little one spent most of the time walking around.  He's pretty resistant to being told where to go or what to do.  He's the boss and he knows it.

He accepted, and enjoyed, help in carrying the stroller across rocky parts and steps.

The weather was beautiful and we had a picnic dinner before leaving.


Here's our little family, he's trying to escape for more running around, of course.

Edible Messes

Here are a few pictures from this week.

He loved this! Me too.

He didn't want to eat the cone and after a while we gave him a spoon to make things easier. I'm sure he'd like the cone ... maybe next time.


He wanted to play with the box of Cheerios. I resisted at first but I try to not tell him no too much and figured it would be okay.

In the last picture he's holding up one finger to ask if he can pour more out just one more time. This is one of the 3 or so times he made that request after I finally told him he probably had enough.

As time went on they spread out more, shoes were removed, and eating them became more and more incidental. He had a lot of fun.

28 Weeks

Picture of our new little guy's cute face at 28 weeks!

He moved a lot during the ultrasound.
His eyes were closed and he was sucking his fingers ♥

Grocery Store

I needed to pick up just a couple things from the grocery store so I decided to let my little guy try one of the little carts. He loved it! After checking out I told him it was time to go but he wouldn't hear of it. We had some time so I figured it'd be fine to let him push it around the store a little longer. We left about a half hour later (some of that time was spent playing in the seasonal aisle) and even then he threw a little fit about it. It was fun though and he was quite the natural. I just hope that next time he agrees to leave a little easier.


Please excuse the short pants. It's laundry day.

25 Weeks

"This is how I feel about getting a little brother!!"

Just kidding. What he's really saying:
"This is how I feel about giving up my pacifier for the picture!!"

My belly is a nice arm rest for him when we're sitting on the couch together.
