Our Trip to Utah

Chandler and I went on a trip to Utah! 

There, he met more of his family, 

and played with new baby friends! 

He was an absolute dream on the plane, wide awake and looking around while not making a peep, on the way there. On the ride home, he slept from security in Salt Lake City, all the way to baggage claim in Denver! He's a great travel buddy. Unfortunately, Jordan couldn't come with us, since he's been training in the field for the last six weeks (I finally get to pick him up today!).

We surprised his Grandma Vickie (Jordan's mom) at work- she had no idea we were coming into town. It was an incredible moment, watching her look up from her computer, to unexpectedly meet her first and only grandbaby. Truly amazing.

Chandler also met his Auntie Rainbow Cat (my little sister, Aimee), his Uncle Jared (Jordan's oldest brother) and a few other family members and friends. He had lots of snuggle time with his Sassy (my mom) and GG (my Grammy), which allowed me to catch up on some beauty sleep (fabulous).

We had a great time in Utah, and can't wait to go back- next time, we'll be bringing our big man of the house. If we didn't get to see you, I apologize and we'll see you next time! Love to all!

TWO MONTHS OLD!

Two months have come and gone by so quickly!

At TWO MONTHS, Chandler...

Still loves his paci, and is much better at keeping it in

Takes one long nap and several cat naps during the day, 

and wakes up only twice during the night

Smiles almost all day long (even in his sleep)

Wears size one diapers and three month clothes

Weighs 11 pounds, 2 ounces

And still makes the funniest faces I've ever seen

We love you so much, Chan Doggie!

Lots of Firsts

I can't believe my little Chandler is going to be TWO months old tomorrow. It seems like we brought him home from the hospital just last week! In the last week alone, he's grown so much.

We went to the park for the first time.

I forgot his sunglasses and hat, 

but luckily remembered the sunscreen.

He did NOT like the swing, but enjoyed the slide.

He was so excited about being outside, 

he pooped all the way up to his neck...

...and I ran out of wipes before he was clean.

It was quite an adventure!

He took a nap in his crib, for the very first time.

It was short lived, but he fell asleep none the less.

He looks so tiny in the big bed!

 

And the best part of all, he started smiling a little bit.

We're still waiting on the big toothless grins, 

But this will certainly do, in the meantime.

 

I'll be posting his two month photo and stats in the next few days,
 so keep your eyes peeled!

Four Generations

Left to Right: Sassy, Mama, Critter and GG

My Grammy (Chandler's GG) had a layover in Denver, 

while my mom (Chandler's Sassy) was visiting, 

so we met her for lunch at the airport! 

Chandler had a great time meeting GG, 

while we caught up over margaritas 

and tacos at the Cantina. 

We can't wait to see them again soon! 

Happy thoughts and hugs to GG, 

who's getting knee surgery this week. 

WE LOVE YOU!

Chandler's First Easter

Chandler's first Easter was also 

Mama and Daddy's first Easter together! 

So it was a big day of firsts, and we went all out...

We dyed eggs (Chandler wasn't really into it).

The Easter Bunny came!

We invited friends over for an incredible dinner of 

BBQ'd ribs and burgers, 

homemade au gratin potatoes, 

deviled eggs (of course), 

sliced watermelon and fresh green beans.

Chandler looked so cute in his swing, 

which just happens to have bunny ears.

We had a great first Easter!
