Around Here

I've been meaning to blog for a while now, and I've even started a couple of posts, but never got around to finishing them or posting them. It's safe to say that David keeps me pretty busy. He sleeps pretty well at night, but I'm lucky to get him down for a nap once during the day. I don't mind him being awake and happy, it's when he's crying and there seems to be nothing that makes him happy that is hard. Nothing that is except eating, but even that doesn't always work or sometimes he'll start eating and then whimper. Thankfully, if I get really desperate, I know that I can always stick him in the car and go for a drive. That has yet to fail as a method of getting him to fall asleep. Too bad gas prices are so high.

We blessed David on the 13th of this month and we are so grateful to everyone that could come. It was a great day.

Anyways, I know that everyone just wants to see pictures of the cute little boy so here you go.

We put this on him for a BYU basketball game. Too bad we lost.

No matter how well we wrap him, he always manages to get out.

It's moments like these that make everything worth it.

Baby Pictures

So I've been meaning to write for a while and post some pictures of our cute boy, but I've been a bit busy. For the most part, David is a calm little guy, but he's not fond of sleeping or being anywhere else but in someone's arms. Once in a while I can get him to sleep or at least be calm in his swing or his newly acquired bouncy seat, but that doesn't happen too often. When it does, I prioritize what I need to get done. I don't mind any of this. I'm perfectly content to sit around and hold my baby. It does get a little tricky when I'm hungry though.

David when born was 6 lbs and 6.5 oz, and 19.5 in long. Definitely smaller than we thought he'd be, but I'm not complaining. He's now 7 lbs and it seems like he's always starving. He has blue eyes and we're waiting to see if that changes.

Here are some pictures of the little guy:
