Family Pictures

We just had our family pictures done so I thought I would share them with you...

While we were taking pictures I asked if she would do some of just Jack since he is 6 months old now. Where does the time go?? Our little boy is getting so big!! And SO cute if i might say so myself... :) Enjoy!

From picures till now..

I am horrible at keeping this updated lately, I know. In my defense though, we really don't do anything. Adam is finally back to a normal schedule so we are enjoying the weekends together. This summer was quite uneventful. Jack was so little that we really didn't do much. My sister and her family came to visit in September, and we went to Sand Hollow. Since I am horrile at taking pictures I got about 2 while we were there...



Ok... I got 3... Haha



I gave Jack his first haircut too... It was so funny. He just sat there. Didn't even flinch! He did try to turn around to see what I was doing, but that's it!



We also have had Halloween. Jack's first. It was super fun. We went to Panguitch so we could see his cousins Aiden and Ashton. I didn't get any pictures of them together (OF COURSE!), but we did get a shot of Jack with his super cute girlfriend.




We also carved pumpkins with our favorites, Kurtney.. (Kurt and Whitney)




Here's Adam's pumpkin on Clarks head.. This poor cat lets us do whatever we want to him.. (And yes... Adam's pumpkin is supposed to be a butt...)




Jack got his first taste of the pool too! He LOVED it! The water was a little cold, so we didn't stay long. We're super excited to take him again though...



The week before Thanksgiving we went up to Salt Lake for an EMT conference for Adam. We had a lot of fun. I got to see my friends. I really miss them all a ton... We went to a hockey game one night. I don't have any pictures because Jack SCREAMED the whole time. It was way too loud for him.. Poor buddy. We also went to a BYU football game. Jack did much better there. He fell asleep for some of it. We made it through most of the game before he was just plain done.




Thanksgiving was fun. We went to Panguitch this year. For some reason I only took 2 pictures. Just of Jack... So this is Jack on his first Thanksgiving! He was so happy all weekend. It was really fun.





The Saturday after Thanksgiving my brother blessed his little girl and baptized his boy. We got to go share the experience with them and it looks like Jack and Brekka are gonna be great friends!




We are all looking forward to Christmas. I love December. It is such a fun month. I've been getting some of our decorations up, but we don't have our tree yet, so I have been a little lazy about it. Adam is going to get it for us this weekend, so I got the stand ready with the tree skirt. Clark seems to be pretty excited about it..


I'll try my best to be better at keeping up on this... Here are a couple more pictures for good measure...

Jack's photoshoot

Jack had his very first photoshoot. :) Here are some of my favorites...

Really?? I haven't updated in 5 weeks?

So, I can't believe it has been 5 weeks since I posted last... Time really does fly. That in itself gives new meaning to when people tell me to enjoy Jack cause all of a sudden he'll be grown up. He has already changed so much. I can't believe it. There are a few things I need to update everyone on. Jack cord didn't fall off FOREVER, so I had to give him spongebaths for almost a month. It was crazy. Once I could give him a real bath though, he LOVED it.

He also loves tummy time for the most part... So much so that he usually ends up falling asleep. Cute little bugger..

We took him on his first fishing trip too! They opened a little resevoir here in Cedar City. They call it The Lake on The Hill. Ha. One side is for fishing and the other is a beach for swimming. Nest year I have a feeling we'll be spending a lot of time there..

The view from the fishing side over to the beach.

Yeah....

The boy slept the whole time. Haha.

We only caught a few tiny fish, but it was fun!

On a little bit of a sad note.. Jack got some sort of bug a couple of weeks ago. He was throwing up alot. Super scary for me. We took him in to the doctor and they tried giving him some Pedialyte, and he threw that up too. He was 5 weeks old when this happened and there is a condition called Pyloric Stenosis where the Pyloris muscle (somewhere on the stomach) won't open and allow food to go through. Apparently this happens most of the time between 4 and 6 weeks, and if he had it, he would have to have surgery. Needless to say, I was FREAKING OUT! We got to the Doctors office at 10am, and couldn't get the ultrasound done till 3!! Well, he does not have Pyloric Stenosis. He just had the flu... It was a relief, but he still wasn't keeping anything down so the poor little dude had to have IV fluids. They sent us home that night and told us to give him Pedialyte throughout the night, and come back in the morning. They kept the IV in his arm and wrapped it up so it wouldn't get pulled out. He HATED it. He is doing much better now, thank goodness.

Not much else had been going on. Jack and I just hang out at home for the most part.. Adam has been home a bit more than normal this summer, which has been great. We're starting to have some fires now though, so we'll see how much he's gone! Here's a few more pictures of the little man so you can all see him. :)

He's got a little Alfalfa sprout going on here.


Sooooo sweet..

And one of Clark hangin out in the laundry.. Heehee. We still love him very much too. :)
