Pumpkin Patch

Weston's first big fun outing was to the pumpkin patch here in Idaho Falls where we got to pick 4 pumpkins for 20 bucks. It was SO much fun, Weston was wide awake for the whole thing, and we got some really good pumpkins! We've carved 2 so far, one was Weston's and one was Rob's. We want to hollow one out and put Weston in it and take pics, but that hasn't happened quite yet. It was so much fun being able to go with Weston, and we're excited to make it an every year tradition!

He liked his ride in the little cart :)

Chilling with the pumpkins :P

Rob's pumpkin-the headless horseman!

Baby Blessing and a Hard Goodbye

Weston got blessed last Sunday! Normally babies get blessed when they are a little older, on a fast Sunday, and in their own ward...but we went against all the norm this time! My little brother Brady was having his farewell, and we decided it would be really neat to do a combined day for Weston and Brady, so we did! It was such a cool experience! Weston got blessed, Brady spoke, and Rob, my dad, and Mike all sang a song. It was SO neat. Afterwards was craziness at my parents house but it was really fun. Sadly, because of all the craziness, we forgot to take pics! SO SO sad, but I am starting to get over it.

Then on Wednesday, Weston and I took the journey with my family to drop Brady off at the MTC. Rob had to work and was so bummed that he had to miss it, but we decided we should go nonetheless. Let's just say that was one of the hardest things to do EVER. I'm still playing denial that Bady is actually gone, but at the same time I am so glad that he has this opportunity. He is definitely missed, but we know that this is what he is supposed to be doing right now :)

Here are pics of Uncle Bady and Weston, Weston in his blessing outfit, and the ride down to Utah.

Hanging with Uncle Bady

Just some smiles from Weston to make everyone's day a little bit brighter :)

4 Weeks Old!!!

Has it really been 4 weeks already?! Seriously??? Wow time really does fly! Weston is doing great, weighing in at 9 lbs 9 oz! He is definitely a growing boy! He is growing every single day, and we are just soaking it up!        Here's some new pics and a video :)

Ok let me explain this next pic, Rob has talked about getting to shower with Weston when he's a bit older. I was kind of thrown by this at first because my family never did anything like it, but it is huge tradition in Rob's family. Well Weston...lets say don't love bath time. I think it's because I'm trying to balance him, get him soaped up, not drop anything...it's just really intense and kind of traumatizing for both of us. So Rob was in the shower the other day and I was telling him about this, and he was like "well, give him to me." I was kind of planning on disaster, but Weston LOVED it. No cries, no wimpers, was totally content to hang with dad in the shower! Haha kinda beyond cute, so I documented. It's not weird...it's cute :)

First shower with daddy
