Weston - 3 months

Weston is 3 months old today!! He weighs 13.5 lbs! He is still a really good baby and I'm so lucky! He doesn't fuss a whole lot unless he's tired and is pretty much sleeping thru the night. I feed him and put him down at about 10:00 and he sleeps until about 5 or 6. I'll feed him and he'll go back to sleep for another 3-4 hours. He takes a few little naps throughout the day, but he's awake for most of the day.

He loves inspecting his hands and chewing on them. He also drools A LOT! I love listening to him jibber jabber and make new sounds. He lets out little playful screams while playing on his Baby Einstein playmat that he got for Christmas and can grab the little toys that hang down.

I love that he....is content playing on his own but that he lights up even more when playing with mom or dad; loves going for rides and running errands with me; is super good when we go out to eat at restaurants; loves talking to his lamb and bear; loves to just sit on our laps and chill and cuddle; and smiles whenever he sees me :) John also recently made him laugh his first real laugh. It was so cute!!

He's grown so much and is almost too big for his bassinet so I am going to start a slow transition to his crib. I would love to keep him in our room and I'm kind of sad that he will be in his own crib in his own room because I love having him close to me. But I guess that's why we bought the nice, expensive crib with leather that I just had to have for him :)
He is the highlight of all our families and everyone loves him so much. My nephews Parker and Jake absolutely ADORE Weston and are always asking when they can see him again. And Weston loves to play and talk with them too. I try to hold onto and take advantage of every moment because I know he won't be this little forever. I'm going to miss this when he gets older. I love you my son!!

New Year's - Happy 2010!

This year we spent New Year's Eve with my family which was fun because I haven't spent it with them in several years. We even made it to midnight....well, some of us ;)

We all just hung out at my mom's watching tv, playing Bingo, having good food and snacks, and celebrating my brother Shane's birthday. He's a New Year's day baby! He loved the metal BYU yard sign that John's cousin made for him :) Weston was so fun and such a good boy. He was awake for most of the night, and ALMOST made it to midnight! There was so much going on that he didn't want to miss out on it, and I didn't try to put him to bed. But he finally passed out at 11:45!!!! He only had 15 minutes left to midnight and he just couldn't keep his little eyes open any longer. We left to go home shortly after midnight and he never woke up until about 8am :)
