City Boy




'Bugs' you spent last week in NYC enjoying the view and shopping up a storm with mamma. We learned about stranger danger because every person in EVERY store, metro, or restaurant would try and touch you-eek! You're so cute that I can hardly blame them-well almost. Needless to say I think you adjusted to city life very well and enjoyed getting gussied up every day to go out in public. Today you seemed really bored now that we are back to our quiet Utah lives where you don't even make it out of your p.j's in a day

4 Months












You are almost 5 months and I am just getting around to posting your 4 month update! We have several nick names going for you "Bugs" Bug-a Boo", "PB&J", and "Portskee" so you probably won't realize what your real name is for a while down the road.

You are still only 11.5 lBS. That puts you in the  10% for weight and height, but that head of yours is in the 50% percentile. Around our house we call it a 5-head not a 4-head, but I am sure you got lots of smarts in there.

You are now wiggling and rolling around.  You can no longer be left unattended on high surfaces and have become an expert at rolling around to watch me move around the house. You are getting the idea of putting the binki in your mouth yourself- I would say 5 out of 10 times I hand it to you you successfully put it in the Kisser :) You are definitely a vocal kid and have taken to growling.  So, now you sit on your matt and growl up at the ceiling kind of like a baby possessed.

The biggest new change is the DROOL! It is everywhere now and so frequent that I don't even bother to wipe baby spit off me anymore. I pretty much rub it in like some expensive moisturizer.  Me and your dad have become those tainted parents that we swore we would never become! We both wipe big blobs of slobber off your face with our hands and simply wipe the spit back on ourselves. Kinda makes me cringe even thinking about it but we love your slobbery 5-head face to itty bitty baby bits-slobbery kisses and all.

Round Up




Last week we were at the Bar B where we experienced our first round up and also landing on the runway for the first time!
I think all of Derek's cowboy dreams came true that week :)
