Family Pictures

Three weeks ago my whole family came out here to visit and for Lucas's and his cousin's baby blessings. While we had everyone here we got some family pictures taken. Here's the whole group. There are a lot of us.


And here is our new little family. Aren't we so cute?


And I love this picture, not only is Ryan a super attractive father, Lucas is making his "Who the heck are you?" face. He makes funny faces when he's waking up.

Favortie Things

It's been over 3 weeks now and we're starting to get to know this new baby of ours. He is very picky about how he is held and loves to scream bloody murder for no reason at all. Some of his favorite things that we've learned so far are...

Being in his car seat and riding in the car...


Sleeping with his hands by his head...


Helping mommy with the laundry...


Tummy time...


Having his diaper changed, he used to hate it but now just putting him on his mat calms him down...


Bath time...


Being outside, especially with daddy...


And I don't have a picture, but he loves the sound of running water, he could be screaming at the top of his lungs but if I turn on the faucet, he just stops and looks around. It's adorable; not the screaming part, though.

Last weekend was rough, Ryan and I gave talks in church, I got sick, and Lucas decided he wanted to be grumpy all day long for like 4 days straight. Yesterday, though, he was a little angel and I got to get some stuff done around the apartment, including making cookies. It was a good day.


Look at his squishy little face!
