3 Months Old

I honestly can't believe that Easton is now 3 months old. Time has gone so quickly but I love watching him learn and grow. Here are a few new things about Easton....

  • We weighed him at my mom's house so I'm not sure how accurate that is to the doctors scale but it said 15 lbs. So I'm sure he is somewhere in that range.
  • He seems to be enjoying riding in the tractor more and more. He smiles or sleeps while he rides with me.
  • He loves playing on his play mat. He has now figured out how to pull on the toys so they play music and he smiles a lot while he plays.
  • He drools a ton already. He is constantly making spit bubbles which I don't enjoy. His shirt is constantly soaked.
  • He is still eating 5 oz. every 2 to 3 hours.
  • He likes to squeal a lot and if you mimic the noises he makes he gets more excited and squeals louder.
  • He seems to enjoy having books read to him. He looks at the pages and watches you turn each page.
  • He is always looking around taking in everything around him.
  • He loves watching TV and gets mad if he is laying on the floor and the TV is on and he can't see it.
  • He sleeps in his crib every night now. He has even slept through the night a few times. I can't wait until it's consistent.
  • He loves bath time. He kicks his legs and smiles the entire time he is in there.
  • He is constantly sticking his tongue out.
I absolutely love being a mother and I can't wait to continue to watch him grow.

There is that tongue


Always smiling in the bath. He is such a chunky kid. I love it.

The Month of October......

I've been slacking quite a bit and haven't posted anything for a month. Life has been quite busy for us and it's been hard finding time to update this. So I decided that I would do a post on everything that has happened in the month of October since my last post.

Fish Lake
On one of the Saturdays Kincade and I decided that we wanted to go do something as a family. Of course Kincade came up with fishing because that is one thing he really enjoys doing. So we loaded up Izzy and Easton and headed up to Fish Lake to fish. It had been pretty good weather in Richfield when we left so we had hoped for the same thing at Fish Lake. Sadly when we got there it was really windy. Kincade and Izzy sat out and fished while Easton and I sat in the car and watched. It was way too cold and windy for him to be outside. We ended up not staying very long because both Izzy and Cade were freezing so it mainly turned into a ride up to Fish Lake and back which was fine. I always love going there because it is always so pretty. I definitely enjoyed the ride with the family and loved being able to spend time with Cade. Here are a few pictures from our short trip there.....
Easton enjoyed Fish Lake by laying on the front seat of the car.

Izzy kept wanting to get Cade's float when he would cast. 

Cade and Izzy spent a lot of time playing hide and seek. Cade would hide behind the rocks and Izzy would go try to find him.



Halloween
Every year my sister in law has a Halloween party. This year she did it the Monday before Halloween. Everyone is required to dress up for the party and you can't be the same thing twice. This year Cade and I really didn't want to buy a costume so we were lazy and dressed up as hunters. We did add in the hill billy teeth so we could say we were hill billy hunters. We only got one picture at the party because we were way late to the party. The picture is horrible too because my mom didn't realize she needed to turn on the flash. Oh well though. Easton and Izzy were both dressed up as lions. Izzy's mane wouldn't stay on so in the picture you can't tell what she was at all.

On Halloween the only reason I even put Easton in a costume was to get pictures with my brothers kids. Kennedy was dressed as a ghost, Jacey was some type of barbie mermaid (I don't remember exactly what it was even though she told me a billion times), and Luke was dressed as a dinosaur. They were all so cute. I can't wait to dress Easton up next year and actually go trick or treating.

Not sure what to think about the costume

He kept trying to suck on the mane. It was soaked by the time we got pictures and got the hood taken off.




I also had promised in my last post a better picture of him in his blessing outfit. This was the best I could get.

The back - I had to show off the jacket tail

The front - He looked so handsome in his tux and I am so thankful for my mom who sewed it for me. :)
