4 Months


Eden turned four months on March 2nd and we went for her checkup. Here are her stats:

  • 13lbs 5oz - 50th percentile
  • 25in - 75th percentile
  • 41cm head - 50th percentile
So really, she's just your average kid, but not to us. She can roll over front to back and is almost to back to front. Just the other day she figured out that Peek-a-boo is funny....especially when Daddy plays. She can sit up on her own for a few seconds.....we are soooo close. I think she will love playing even more when she can sit up. She is generally a happy kid, talking all the time. She especially loves to see her Daddy in the mornings or when he comes home from work. She sees him and just smiles and smiles.

Things she doesn't like? The carseat. Ugh....I don't know what happened but we have to scream and scream now in the car. I think mostly it's just that she's usually all alone back there and doesn't have anyone to pay attention to her.

11am Torture

Have I mentioned that I hate 11am church? Eden usually does fine during Sacrament, but then I end up walking the halls for 2 hours because she needs to go to sleep but won't go to sleep. Ugh. This Sunday finally got her to go to sleep, but this is how she was!

After about ten minutes my arm was KILLING me, but as soon as I moved her guess what? She woke up! I made it into Relief Society long enough to play the opening song, but then back to walking the halls.

Sewing a Watermelon


I made Eden this cute summery outfit a couple weeks ago. Well...Courtney and I worked on it together. The top got quite frustrating, but we did it. And...we even figured out how to do buttonholes! It's a little big because it's a 6 month size, but it won't be long till it fits. However, the pants are supposed to be capris! Haha. Oh well.


Next we are going to make a dress for Ava!

Laundry?

We found a little extra something in our laundry this week!

A Welcome Visit

Holly and Jack were down visiting her family a couple weekends ago and they came down to spend Monday with us before heading back to Utah. We had fun just hanging out at home. I ran around with Jack and Holly loved holding Eden.

It was nice outside and I opened the door so Jack could go out on the patio....and that he did. In and out, in and out. He loved it!

Eden and Aunt Holly having a good time. Too bad about the glare on Holly's glasses.

Jack loved to try Uncle Russell's mouse.

Jack also loved swinging backwards in the swing.

And...Uncle Russell let Jack hold a game! I couldn't believe it!

We loved seeing them and miss living by them a ton. Wish Caleb could have come, but we will see him over Spring Break.

Dinosaur Lover?

This picture makes it look like Eden is not a fan of dinosaurs at all....but in fact she loves that Stomp more than any giraffe I try and give her. He's found a new home in her crib and a lot of times if she's still awake when I put her down she looks around till she can see him before settling in to go to sleep. Seems as if Daddy might have lost his snuggly dinosaur.

Eden Watching the Olympics

I hate to say it, but Eden and I did a lot of watching the Olympics the last couple of weeks. However, Eden absolutely loved it! She ignores the t.v. any other time it's on, but when the Olympics were all she always got soooooo excited!
