Dax is 12 weeks!

My baby bogus getting so big! His personality is starting to shine that's for sure. We are loving every second!

He had his first belly laugh yesterday. Brad and I were both there which made is so much more special. He loves trying to sit up and stand. He is so smiley! 

He is a total daddy's boy. 

We are still trying to get him to sleep through the night, but he's been sick so it's been hard. 

We are so excited to go to Arizona here soon and spend time with my family! It'll be the first time for my sisters and dad to see him. 

I am loving every minute of being a mom. It's not always easy but it is a blessing. 

7 Weeks Old!

It's been a long but quick three weeks. I can't believe he is already 7 weeks!! My little boy is getting so big. He is so much fun to spend every second with. He loves to giggle, smile, and he is starting to talk to us too. It's so sweet! Aside from the colic he is a little angel. Nights are usually the only time it's really rough.
I couldn't be luckier to have Brad by my side. He is the best husband and daddy! He is super helpful and loves to play with Dax. He especially loves how Dax is recognizing him. It's so sweet to see them together.
We have a wonderful photographer who has taken Daxtons newborn pictures at 4 days old as well as a family lifestyle shoot. The pictures turned out amazing and I am so excited to hang them in the house.
We have had a lot going on in our lives recently. We just sold my Mazda 3 last night, which means I can go get a new one! Yay!! I am so excited to get a bigger car and to be higher up. I just want Daxton as safe as possible and a bigger car will do just that.
On Sunday we blessed Daxton, it was amazing to have family here with us to celebrate. Although I was so sad to not have my side here to be with us I know they were in our hearts and thoughts. We are so lucky to have the Priesthood in our life and to have a worthy husband and father to bless us with it. He always puts us first and makes sure we are happy and have everything we could want or need.
I love our little family so much and can't wait for our future and for the future Daxton will have! Seeing him grow up is the best blessing I could ever ask for!

Almost 4 Weeks Old

Our beautiful baby boy is almost 4 weeks old! Wow time isn't slowing down one bit. It's overwhelming and exciting all in the same breathe. I am absolutely loving every tiring second of being a mom. I wouldn't change it for anything.
Dax is doing pretty good. He is definitely getting chunky! I love his sweet little gummy smile and he already has such a big personality. He is colicky and it is so sad to see him in pain no matter what I do to help him. We are doing everything we can though to get through this stage in his life.
Brad is such a wonderful Dad. He is soaking up every second of it.
We are so excited that the weather is getting warmer here, I can't wait to be able to be outdoors again and Daxton will be the perfect age this summer to do some swimming this year. What an adventure our future is going to be with this little boy! I am so thankful for this opportunity that I have to be married to such a wonderful man and have this little boy in our lives.
Daxton is about 8 lbs now but still barely fits into his newborn clothes. Haha :)
It is difficult and funny because Daxton loves to sleep on his side, but he won't sleep unless he is either touching Brad or I. The minute I move away or even just try to jump in the shower he is wide awake and not happy about it! Silly kid... He is doing so well at lifting his head and hopefully we will see those smiles more frequently since he is almost to that age!
We are excited to be planning some fun things this summer. Daxton gets blessed on my Mom's birthday April 14th. We may be going to visit my family in Arizona end of May and in August too. We have my family coming here in July and a family reunion for Brads family in July too. Wow so many fun things!
We will post more later on this week.
