3 months for Cut!

While we were in Idaho I learned that my Great Grandma Lavinia (I am named after her) called my Great Grandpa Cutler “Cut.” So if Cutler gets a nickname I think it should be Cut! So cute plus it makes sense to have the same nickname as a person he was named after!

It is crazy that he is already 3 months old! We are loving having him around. Ronnee is showing more interest in him and calls him “her baby” and always checks on him and loves when he wakes up! She gets so excited and kisses him all over! I love that except when she wakes him up and he doesn’t need to be woken up!  We are having some sleep issues but I think he is eating all the time instead of sleeping because he is growing. He isn’t the best napper but hopefully he gets better. He still does a 4 hour sometimes longer stretch in the beginning of the night but wakes up a lot after that to eat.  I may need to start going to bed with him at 7 so I get more rest! He will put himself to sleep which is nice. I just nurse him and lay him down and he will curl up and go to sleep. He is not a fan of the binky but will use it occasionally. He prefers to chew on his hand or a blanket.  He is laughing and smiling a lot and is almost rolling over. He likes to be facing out so he can see what is going on. He loves going on walks. He loves his sister and is a mommy’s boy for sure!

He is 25.5 in long and 13.1 lbs!

I had a little photo shoot with him this morning and I can’t get over how cute he is! I am not sure who he looks like but he is so handsome! I told Ty I could be done having kids because I have the cutest little boy and cutest little girl! Man am I blessed!

Ronnee of course couldn’t help but get in the middle of all of it. It was funny because you can tell by looking at the pictures when she would show her face because Cutler would stare at her! He is obsessed with her!

I need to do this when Tyler is home next time so he can distract him from looking at the camera.

Trip to Idaho!

Tuesday morning we loaded up the cars and headed to Boise to see Grandma Mickey!  The kids all did really good in the car but were sure glad when we made it!  It was really fun visiting with my Grandma and Aunt Janet and the rest of the family! So glad it worked out that I could go with them up to Boise. I know my Grandma loved it and was so happy to see us all!

We stayed one night in Boise and then the next afternoon we headed to Burley to see my Grandpa. It was a nice short drive right during nap time!  My Grandpa lives on the Snake River so there was a lot of exploring to be done for the kids. Glad it is a hike down to the river so the kids couldn’t go on there own!

We headed home on Thursday morning so I could get back to go the Chiropractor by 5. Another long day in the car but we all survived. Friday Tyler got sick so he was home in bed or in the bathroom and we went and road the go carts and had a picnic at the park. Saturday morning Ike and Steph headed home. The women headed out shopping and the boys got rodeo tickets. Tyler was still sick but was a good sport and took Sam to the Rodeo Finals. He said he spent most of the time in the bathroom. He got some kind of food poisoning.  The rest of the Fam left Sunday morning really early. It was sad to see them go but we will see them in a couple weeks! 

Visit from the Family

Ike, Steph, Charlie, my mom, my dad, Hannah, and Sam made the long road trip up to our house! It was so fun. I am so lucky to have family that comes and visits!

We all had a good time even though it was a little chilly and windy! Ronnee loved all the horses and playing on Grandma’s lap underneath the blanket!   The next morning bright and early we headed up to Idaho to see my Grandma and Grandpa!

Splash Pad

Saturday after naps we headed out to the Splash Pad with Madeline to help pass the time before the family got into town!

Ronnee was really timid at first, she just ran around the outside. Surprise surprise she was running. Lol This little girl loves to run. She can seriously run a whole mile and still have plenty of running in her system!  But back to the Splash pad, it was really fun and I love that it was fenced in so Ronnee couldn’t escape!

And I got her into a bathing suit!!!! She took it off once and then we told her we were going to go with out her and she said “okay by mom have fun!”  We even left her inside and got in the car and I went and checked on her and she didn’t even move from the bed. So I had to force her swim suit on her again and force her into her carseat. But once we got there she forgot all about it when Tyler made her get into the water!  Funny funny girl!
