can you tell i'm tired? these last few months have been such a blur! novemeber is good too.. more unpacking and getting organized, enjoying the last little bit of warm weather, and meeting new friends!

my handsome boys <3

5 months old! rolling and babbling... he's getting so big!

this is one of my favorite pictures. it really shows how happy they both are when they're around each other. its soo sweet<3

 setting up christmas decorations! jarhead had fun helping this year!

 started the elf on the shelf (thanks g bob!) jarhead loves it. he started as borlee but then changed (and has stayed) marlee. the first thing jarhead says when he wakes up- where's the elf? he loves him!

went to the free zoo day with some friends. it wasn't that cold and we had a great time!

October 2013

Great month! Jarhead LOVED halloween and everything about it. he loved the cousin party and decorating pumpkins, he loved going to mr. cleans work for candy, and going door to door... he loved that he got to be spiderman! he loved cornbellys! lego was content which made us happy. we also closed on our home and moved!

our first home! <3

after a loooong day of cleaning the apartment! leaving legos first home!

Sept 2013

man on man. i am behind! i blame it on too little sleep, moving, a birthday, holidays, and did i mention little sleep? well, here goes a quick catch up!

Lego turned 3 months!

went to my friend Mare's wedding (who I somehow didn't get a pic with!) but also got to see her family/my friends... 

a trip to SLC with cousins! good trip and the kids loved it!

first post baby 5k (and only so far :) ) i walked about half of it but it was fun to do with my friends! i love these girls!

jarhead loves to play with lego! it's SOO cute!

i'm sure it was a great month but I dont really remember! this is just after we found our house and the packing began!

August 2013

What a great month! August was super fun and busy! My phone is still having problems trnsferring photos so I dont have any from there but the camera ones will have to do!

what a goof! he's a ham for the camera!

Lego is 2 months old!

"sleepover" in the living room.. we made it until about 1030 and then put Jarhead to bed.. he was not going to sleep with us and lego there!

but mom, i'm just so tired!

GiGi came for a visit! It was SO much fun! We did a little bit of everything.. The riverwoods, arcade, splash pad, dinosaur museum, library, aquarium, bowling, feeding the ducks, farmers market and ate a lot of yummy food! we miss her already! it was so fun to have her here for 2 weeks. Of course, lego didn't understand but Jarhead loved every minute of it and cried when she left.

here he's going to "school"

loves to do tummy time with his brother!

the ducks followed Mr. Clean everywhere. literally, they were just gathered around him where ever he went. 

jarhead loves a show called "pingu" (super dumb but whatev..LOL) and called these penguins Pingu and gave them all hugs. He was so excited to "meet" him...

Jarhead is growing up so fast! He talks up a storm and says the funniest things! I love that he tells me I'm beautiful and that he loves me all the time. It just melts my heart! He's suddenly become scared of everything so I'm hoping it's just a phase! It's so difficult! He's loving his puzzles and reading. He's memorized parts of a few of his favorites. He is a ham for the camera and loves to see himself right away. He's really into wearing his shirts backwards so he can see the other side. (i.e. the spider man shirt in the last few photos). Everything is still SPIDERMAN! he can spot him and other superheros from far away in the car or at the store. It's crazy... He says "I'm so funny" and squints his eyes and stretches his neck and has this funny fake laugh. It's the cutest thing ever. He LOVES his baby brother. He sings to him (or to anyone) if they are "sad".. He holds baby brothers hand and loves to help me with him. He loves nursery and we had to miss a few weeks due to being sick and a blessing and he was so sad! His favorite thing to learn is shapes and lately numbers. He could care less about lowercase letters. 

Lego is getting bigger everyday. He was trying really hard to roll over but has since decided it's better to just chill on his side. haha.. He loves to hold your fingers and onto his toys or binky.. He laughs and smiles so easily-I love it! It's good tho because he could def be a cranky baby! Completely the opposite of Jarhead! He follows Jarhead with his eyes everywhere and smiles when he comes close.  I love seeing their relationship already!

Life is good and busy and I LOVE fall... We're going to have a great next few months!
