Catch Up on Life

Here's a photo dump with what we've been up to lately
 
We went to go visit/entertain my sister for a week while she was on bed rest and Chris was out of town
 

Carson climbed out onto this roof at a baseball game and Steve had to go climb out and save him.  It was so funny.

Laney--3 Months

This little angel baby is the sweetest thing.
We love having her sweet, happy personality in our home.
I love her big, dimpled smile and how she always looks away shyly after smiling at me.
She is getting so big my heart starts to ache when I see pictures of her from when she was a few weeks old.

Laney is growing like a weed these days.
She is in size 3 diapers and 3-6 and 6 month clothes.
She has still never had a bottle and doesn't like pacifiers either.  The bottle is definitely something we need to work on.
She usually eats every 2 hours, sometimes every 3 if she takes a long nap.
She goes to bed around 7:30-8, I feed her around 10:30, she usually wakes up around 5:00 to eat for 5-10 minutes, and then goes back to sleep til around 7:30-8.  Some nights she will sleep through the whole night, but she usually wakes up once.
She can hardly stay awake for more than an hour and takes cat naps all day long with at least one long nap a day.
Laney is so close to giggling.
We LOVE her.

Laney--2 Months

Laney is already two months old!
Why does it go so fast? [insert cry face emoji]
She is 13 lb 8 oz (92%), 24.75 inches (100%), and her head was around the 85%.
Laney is quickly outgrowing her 0-3 month clothes and is already in size 2 diapers.
She is our little chubba and is the sweetest thing.

Laney is finally outgrowing her nightly witching hour screaming, but she still occasionally screams a little bit before going to sleep.
She mostly sleeps in a swing for her naps but is pretty good at sleeping on the go as well.
She eats about every 2 hours during the day (sometimes 3) and sleeps pretty much all night.  She goes to sleep around 7:30 and she sleeps one 8-9 hour stretch.  She usually wakes up around 8:30 am.
I try to do the "dreamfeed" before I go to sleep, but sometimes she is so sleepy she won't wake for anything.  She sleeps like a rock at nighttime.  She is in our bedroom, and I can turn on a light and get
things done while she sleeps.

Laney loves to eat (as is evidenced by her weight) but loves to sleep more.  If she is tired and hungry, sleep always wins.
She loves to lay on her playmat and look at toys/try to start reaching for them.
She loves her mama, dad, and Carson.  She could stare at Carson all day, and Carson loves to tell her about his trains.  And she loves to smile at Steve.  He can get her to smile whenever, even on facetime!
Really, how much is there to say about a two month old?

Here are some favorite pictures from the month

It's hard getting woken up at 9 am

Laney's Blessing Day

Steve blessed Laney over Labor Day weekend.
It was so special to have my parents come out here and spend the weekend with us (missed you Lindsay and Chris!)

This was my dad's first time meeting Laney.

 


 

On Saturday morning we ate at a famous BBQ place around here that we love.  Steve went an hour and a half before us to save us a spot in line!

 

We spent a lot of time hanging out at home and watched the BYU game



Blessing Day!




Steve gave Laney a beautiful blessing, and we are happy my dad was there to stand in the circle with him!
