Rock and Rolling

This is an old video but is the only one we have of Forest rolling over. He is now a master at rolling over. He can roll over from front to back and from back to front. He can actually roll all the way across the room! he is so awesome and strong!

Sidewalk chalk

The weather has been so beautiful these last few weeks it inspired us to do some chalk drawings out on our sidewalk!

Forest hanging out in his bumbo seat covered in a blanket to keep warm!

Bridger did this portrait of Forest!
This is a close up of Forest dressed up as a Volcano :)
Forest learning how to drive
After the Rex Lee Run! we did the 5k! wahoo! (Forest joined us afterwards for the festivities)
It is really hard to get a picture of Forest smiling cause when you bring out the camera he becomes very concerned...

Here are a few smiles i was able to catch!


Forest in his bumbo- isn't he so cute! he looks like a little old man!
Staring contest!

Our Special Time

Every morning Forest wakes up around 6 am and it is my favorite time to be with him! Although he is grumpy while I change his diaper prior to eating (he is hungry and just wants to eat) and I am sleepy, it is a really sweet time for just the two of us. Forest is really happy during and after his feeding. During this time Forest loves to look up at me with his sweet big eyes and kind of smile while nursing! mm! It really warms my heart up! He will then fall asleep in my arms as I sing and rock him back to sleep! It is just such a special time for the two of us; there are no interruptions, no errands that need to be run, and we are both happy to see each other! This is actually an older picture and is not during our "special time," but it is a cute picture of us together. On another note do you notice that Forest is actually tanner than me... :(

The last few days have been really exciting with Forest!! He has developed such a cute personality and has started to smile ALOT! It just makes my whole day when he flashes me one of his adorable smiles! I tried to upload a video of him talking and smiling with us but was not able to. Hopefully in a day or two i will be able to upload the video so stay posted!

Forest

Having a baby has totally turned my life around. I can now run on very little sleep, it's a good thing Forest is so dang cute otherwise I would not be as willing to wake up every 3-4 hours at night! He is so amazing and perfect! I just love the little guy! Today he is 3 weeks and 3 days old! he has gained 5 oz. from his birth weight, can do the YMCA, and is as cute as a button! He really is the cutest baby I have ever seen! It is fun to be a mom, a little tiring and a hard some days but overall I love it! I still can't believe that Forest is MY baby! He still sleeps a lot but it so special to have him rest on my chest and to listen to his soft breathing! He is just so precious!
Here are some cute pictures of Forest, Bridger, and myself from over the past 3 and a half weeks!
