4 months!

Our little stud man (as he is affectionately called by his Daddy) is already 4 months old. He has been changing so much in the last couple of weeks. He has several new tricks including the ability to roll over, blow bubbles, chew on his toes (we have a very flexible son), and pet our dog, Charly. Our sweet baby boy brings so much joy to us. Two nights ago I was holding him and walking up the stairs after baby time. Daddy was following us and when Aaron saw his Daddy he would laugh and laugh and laugh. There is nothing that brings more joy to our hearts than to hear Aaron laugh in sheer delight.

Montana Bound...

This last week our family made the long trek out to Montana to visit my family. This was our first car trip with Aaron and he did amazing! We had many highlights during our time in Big Sky Country including:
1). Precious family time.
2.) My dad had the opportunity to introduce Aaron Matthew to his congregation. What a special moment for Grandpa! We can't leave out the special moment that Grandma had introducing Aaron to her bible study group. :)
3.) Aaron had lots of snuggle time with Auntie Anna!
4.) Lunch at Sonic with Mom & Dad...mmmmmm..so good.
5.) Spa Day & Girl Time- my sister bought me a hot stone pedicure and it was wonderful. My mom and I also went to the Salon where my sister works and she did both of our hair.
6.) Picnic at Giant Springs.
7.) Time spent outside despite the crazy weather (100 degrees one day 50 degrees the next :)

I'm not sure why the first picture is upside down and I can't figure out how to fix it.

Sabbath Rest

There are many things that we would like to be more faithful with in our lives and one of them is truly making the Sabbath a day of rest so today we decided to do just that. Instead of using today as "catch-up day" Jack, Aaron and I spent the day together. We did end up running a couple of errands and were blessed with some great deals (mostly thanks to Kmart Double Coupons we were able to get $54.00 worth of items for only $2.34!!)Tonight we had a pizza party out of the deck and read to Aaron out of the book of Mark. We just finished reading the story of Jonah and now we are on to the New Testament! We concluded our Sabbath Day with a beautiful walk outside!

Baby Love

I love my little man!

The Farm

Today Jack, Aaron and I went to Grandpa & Grandpa R's Farm for lunch. We had such a wonderful time. Aaron got to see all of the sheep and meet Oreo, the rabbit. He just stared and stared at Oreo and then wasn't quite sure what he thought of him (as you can see by his sad face in the picture). We toured Grandma R's garden and even got to bring home some delicious veggies to enjoy later.

Bath Time & Park Fun!

Who would think that you would need to bundle up to go to the park at the end of August....well that is what we did tonight! We took our friend Katelyn and Aaron to the park. Aaron fell asleep on the walk to the park so slept through his first park outing!

5 1/2 weeks!

It is hard to believe that Aaron Matthew is already 5 1/2 weeks old. We have cherished each and every day with him. He is such a content baby and has brought so much joy to our lives. He loves to go on walks, be outside, listen to music, and snuggle with his daddy! Hope you enjoy the new pictures!
