Baby Shower

Heather's Mom, Julie was nice enough to host a baby shower for Christian yesterday. Many people attended, including Jon and Veronica and their family from Las Vegas. It was fun because we hadn't seen them in a long time. I was very frustrated when I discovered that I didn't bring our memory card for our camera. Luckily our camera has internal memory and a picture resolution suited for emailing pics. So I am hoping these pictures turn out okay. A special thanks to Melanie for the decor, and Cheree for the food, and Sarah for the invitations. Thanks to everyone for everything. You have all been so great to help us!!!!! Also, thanks to everyone on Chris' side of the family for making the trip out to eat at our place after the shower.

Fresh Videos........get 'em while they are hot!!!!!

Today Christian was Daddy's boy. We found out about 9pm last night that our Babysitter had sick kids and so we were not able to find someone to tend him. Since Heather has used up all her paid time off, I took the day to watch him. He was really good for me. I did have to fight with him a little bit to get him to eat but he ate virtually all of the 4oz I fed him both times during the day. I was probably a bad sitter my self because I let Christian sleep from 10:30 until 2:30 while I studied and cleaned. When I was feeding Christian in the afternoon, I almost started crying just noticing how beautiful this little guy is. Most people don't use the word beautiful to describe a baby boy, but I use the term liberally with Christian. Below are some cute videos we did today.

Our little Thumbsucker is so cute!!!



I sit up like a big boy!!!



My middle name should have been Walker.

Missing Christian

Christian is with my parents and so Chris and I are missing him. I am missing him so much that I decided to do a new posting. Christian is pretty much the best sleeper. Christian slept through the night again last night. He slept from 10pm to 7:30 and I even had to wake him up. Then Christian had a doctor's appointment and he slept the whole way there.

Here are some way cute pictures:

Please, no more pictures!!!

We are finally home!!!!!

I am sorry it has taken us so long to update our blog. Since we have gotten home from Alabama, it has been extremely busy. I started back to work this week. It is so hard to leave Christian after waiting for him to come into my life, all I want to do is be with him. I do feel that he is in good hands though. My mom takes care of him on Monday and Tuesday. My sister-in-law (Kari) takes care of him on Wednesday. Thursday and Friday a lady in our ward takes care of him.

I just want to let everyone know that Christian slept through the night for the first time on Friday night. Chris will tell you that he didn't because Christian kept him up until 1:30 but Christian didn't wake up until 9:30. I woke up at 8:30 to see if Christian was still breathing.

Here are some picture of Christian meeting the family.

BBOY

We haven't posted anything the past few days and felt we were shorting our viewers, so we decided to issue our Biggest Blog of the Year(BBOY). These pictures capture moments that occurred over the last few days. We desperately hope to go home this Tuesday, which could be Super Tuesday for us(as the real Super Tuesday wasn't so super, at least in my book). But we will have to wait and see....stay tuned.

No folks, those are tears of joy from Christian, he loves being in his Mama's arms

This looks like a swinging time!!!

Christian climbing in a tree? What has the world come to?

Yesterday, Heather and I went to do laundry at a coin-op laundry place, while we were folding clothes, Heather needed some comfortable place to set Christian down and found that setting him down in a suit case full of clothes works just fine. I thought this was really creative. We didn't have a Camera yesterday so we recreated the scene today as we got ready for church.

Look at those kissable or pinch-able Cheeks

Feed me mama!!!

Christian already knows how to pin his dad!

Super Christian to the rescue.
