Phone Pictures

I'm really bad at getting out the camera to take pictures so its a good thing my camera takes half decent shots (at least when Simon isn't moving, then they are a bit blurry).  Here are some pictures I've taken over the last month (not nearly as great as the ones Andrew gets with our nice camera, I need to start using it more).

With Aunt Jessica

The first time Simon smiled at me (not just because he was sleeping or had gas)! 

At nama's (my mom) house.  She could always get Simon to smile.

At the beach!  This wasn't Simon's first time, but it was the first time he actually enjoyed being there.  Next year he's going to love it and I can't wait!

2 Months

Height: 21.5 inches (5th percentile...he needs to grow!)

Weight: 10lbs 8oz. (25th percentile, he went up from 12th)

Head: 40.5cm (70th percentile....we have a bobble-head baby)

We have had an eventful summer with a few trips thrown in.  I will have to post pictures soon (but they are all on Andrew's computer and he usually has it with him all day).  We just got back from spending a week and a half in California and it was a blast.  It was great having my parents help with Simon and oh so nice to get outdoors (we've been stuck inside most of the summer because Utah is just too hot for Simon).  Every time I go home to California I realize how much I miss it.  It was great to see family and all our friends.  Simon got to enjoy some great play dates at the pool and beach (although he slept most of the time).  I hope we move back one day!

Simon is getting bigger.

He is growing fast, should be 10 lbs. in no time.

Happy Birthday Jamie !

Happy birthday babe. Simon is the best gift, (even if he came over a month ago). I tried to convince you to get married on your birthday but you weren't a fan of that idea, (two birds with one stone in my mind) our 4 year anniversary will be Thursday. Hard to believe we've been married that long, and I've know you for over 5 years. Happy birthday, I hope you have a great day. Below is the giant slip & slide from a recent family reunion. The thing went down a huge hill and was at least 75 yards long.
