Jack is loving having his brother here. He is very loving and wants to hold and love Cam. We are working on being soft and not touching the babies eyes, but overall things are going well. Each day gets a little better as we all welcome a new one into our home.
Thank you to everyone for all of your well wishes. Baby and I are doing great and are excited to come home. As you can see from the photo baby cleans up quite nicely. I am sure we will be announcing a name soon, we are very close to finalizing that!:)
Here is a picture of Jack when he was born, and the picture is of me. I think I see some similarities.
These pictures are from the snow storm we had last week. Rob and Jack had a great time and enjoyed sliding down the playhouse. I didn't plan on the playhouse being a winter toy but it was a lot of fun.
My boys playing in the snow.
Rob making sure there is enough snow at the bottom so Jack doesn't hit the ground too hard!
We went down to Temple Square to see the lights for my birthday. It was super cold, but it was beautiful, and not crowded. We had a great time and Rob took some great pictures that I thought I would share.
One of the few pictures we had of the 3 of us. I know it is blurry, but I think I look better blurry now a days.
We love Christmas time in our house and this year we have started off with a bang. We were asked about 6 weeks ago to participate in a Holiday Home Show Tour of homes in the Bountiful area. I wasn't sure because I am pregnant, and this is the first Christmas in our new house, I do not have enough decorations, my Mom lives in Spain now, etc. etc. Well we decided to go ahead with it and said we would be part of the tour. I knew that Shannon, my Mother-In-Law would help me, and so what you see in the next few pictures was created under her guidance with the help of Rob's 2 sisters Emily & Jeni. My sister Nikki & her family did a great job is picking out a tree for us, it is 13.5' tall, and Rob & Nikki were also very involved in making my house presentable to a few hundred people. I was a really good observer of the entire process!:) Thanks to everyone who made this happen for us this year. Rob and I both agree that our house may never look so beautiful at the holidays again.
Coming in the front door, hey Rob!
The family room.
A closer view of the tree. There are lighted balls that go up the middle of the tree. It is minimally decorated, but if you ask me it is perfect!
A closer view of the mantle area. When we were building this house one of the things I pictured was our mantle, fireplace, & hearth at Christmas time. I think this is better than I imagined!
