Pictures

Since we missed the boat on newborn pictures, we (when I say "we" I mean "I")decided to get them done at 3.5 months...I am so conventional, I know. I think they turned out pretty cute since he wasn't in the "I don't mind if you stick me in a basket all curled up hanging from the ceiling, I'll just sleep through it phase" or sitting up on his own. Here is a peek.

California!

We decided to up and move to California a couple weeks ago. We loved our time in Utah but felt like we really needed to be by family especially with a new baby.

It was a whirlwind to try to move out by the end of the month (Mike's idea). We barely made it, well I made it just fine on my two hour flight...Mike barely made it. I worked up until the day Cy, my mom and I flew out leaving most of the packing to Mike. After his 18 hour drive with a U Haul and packing a lot in a little storage unit we are somewhat settled and LOVING IT!
The weather has be amazing since we've been here; I thought for sure it would rain our first 30 days in "sunny California" but luckily I was wrong. We have kept busy spending time with family and friends and getting outside as much as possible! Cy is sleeping a ton after his long days so I am thankful for that! I must say we miss our Utah friends a ton and hope we will actually keep in touch and not just say so...

Here are some of the latest happenings...

Help!

I know I'm not much of a blogger but can someone tell me why all my icons (ie blog lists, favorite sites) moved down to the bottom of my page? huh? I look at old posts and it's normal but the last few have been seriously jacked up. I must have hit something on accident; how do I fix? Help appreciated from you pro's out there, KIM, CINDI...?

blessing day

Cy was blessed last week, Mike did an awesome job! I even CRIED, that is HUGE! We were blessed to have ALL of Mike's family in town for the weekend along with my bro and parents. Cy was surrounded by his Papa Tom, uncles and close friends in the circle, man is he loved! I am so thankful for the priesthood and for Mike's blessing to our little guy, he is lucky to have such a great dad. (don't let the picture fool you, altough it may look like a dress it actually is not. It's a blanket. We realized later it looked like a dress, I think that is why he started crying everytime we put it on-haha).

2 months

Today is our Cy guys 2 Month Birthday (!) along with that came his 2 month check up with some shots on the side. He is weighing in at 11lbs 12oz and is 22.5 inches long. He is in the 50th percentile. Good place to be I guess, right in the middle. He loves his binkie, music, balancing on this dads hand, hanging out on his changing table and sitting in the bouncer in the bathroom while I shower(strange I know but he does love it).We just love having him around and are looking forward for him to meet everyone in California next week!

update-5 WEEKS

the big and little man are sick. the past few days have been rough to say the least. the little man just wants to be held and the big man just wants to sleep...between stuffy noses,sneezes,coughs and red swollen eyes my sleep has been slim to none.oh lets add a few inches of SNOW and freezing tempatures to this equation; nevertheless being a mother has been awesome! he cracked 2 smiles (non-gas induced)for me yesterday which have made these past couple days worth it!
