3 Months

Oh Jackson, what a wonderful 3 months we have had together!!!  Mommy had to go back to work on Wednesday, it was very hard, but we are so happy you get to spend the days with Nana while Mommy and Daddy are working.  You are growing more and more each day!

Jackson, our little Doodle, at 3 Months you:

-are full of smiles, laughs and giggles!

-weigh over 12 pounds

-had your first trip to the ER (stomache bug)

-still haven't rolled over...your just content laying however you are

-love your pacifier, but also love to suck on your knuckles

-retired the cradle, you scoot around way too much

-will sleep in the crib if you have to, but would much rather sleep in Mommy and Daddy's bed!

-you recognize our voices and smile whenever you see us

-love to sit on our lap and read books or just look around, you are very obsevant

Go Rockies!!!

Tonight Chris, Uncle Twan and I went to the first Rockies game of the year.  What a game, they won 15-4, it wasn't too hot, we got a little rain, and the Rockies gave us a fun game to watch.  We are so lucky to have Twan in our lives, he has been Chris's best friend since pre-school!  Thanks for going to the game!




Jackson was definately the biggest fan, but unfortunately it was too cold for him to come.  He got to stay home with Nana.  We feel so blessed to have Nana living so close now, and I am so happy Jackson gets to spend so much time with her. Thanks Mom!!! We love you!

Kentucky Derby Bridal Shower

Jenn, Kati, Danelle, Amanda, Bree, Sunny, Sarah
Sunday was Amanda's Bridal Shower, it was a Kentucky Derby theme. We all wore big hats and dresses. We had Mint Juleps, caprese skewers, little sandwiches and cupcakes. It was a lot of fun! There were prizes for the biggest and most creative hats. I don't have pictures of the winners, but they were pretty extravagant.

Mother's Day

My first Mother's Day was very special. I woke up to Chris making me breakfast: turkey bacon, eggs, toast and coffee! I love breakfast. Jackson suprised me with a spa package for a Carribbean Manicure and Pedicure and thanked me for being his Mom. What a sweet little boy! It was such  beautiful day, we decided to go spend the day in Estes Park. We drove to Bear Lake and the plan was to walk around the lake, but there was still a ton of snow and it was starting to melt so it was very slippery and icy. Cowboy boots don't do well on ice. So we just walked up and sat for a little while and enjoyed the sunshine. Then we went back into town and enjoyed ice cream and walked down the river walk. What a wonderful day!


Chris also suprised me with a Keurig Coffee Maker when I woke up this morning for my birthday! How exciting! I feel so blessed to have such a wonderful husband and family. Thank you for all the birthday wishes, too!
