Gotta love free stuff! I took Simon today to get some free photos taken. It was nap time so he wasn't too smiley, but the girl was able to get some good belly laughs out of him at one point.

4 Months!
Simon has his 4 month appointment yesterday! Stats....
Height: 23.75" (10th percentile) Weight: 14lbs. 6oz. (48th percentile)
Head: 43.75cm (87th percentile)
Looks like he still carries most of his weight in his head! He is starting to get some good chub though and I love it! Simon's a happy healthy boy who loves to smile at anyone who will give him attention. He actually only cried for a second after getting his shots and then was smiling at the nurse. There was some bad news though, Simon has a hernia and has to have surgery soon to remove it. We meet with the surgeon on Tuesday and then the surgery will be scheduled. Has anyone had this happen to their lil boy? If so, how did the surgery and recovery go? I guess its fairly common. I'll post some pictures soon....hopefully some good Halloween ones!

Pool!
We took Simon in the pool for the first time tonight. He wouldn't smile for us, but he wasn't upset either, so hopefully he liked it. Simon and I will be returning there A LOT this winter. I wish I could have captured his expression when he gets water in his face, its hilarious! I'll try next time when I bring our water camera.
Thanks Steph for the cute trunks!
This is for you Dad!

Gardner Village & Photoshop
Here are a few pictures from our trip to Gardner Village last week. I've been wanting to learn Photoshop for a while now, but I have no idea where to start (I guess I could get Andrew to teach me). I just played around with it for a few minutes and this is what I came up with. I can't wait to get good at it. (I was actually trying to finish up a few sewing projects this morning, but my machine is giving me trouble and I don' know how/what to fix...I need Beth! This is why I get so frustrated when sewing and never finish anything).
This is my really good friend Tiff. We have known each other since we were 3 years old. Her lil girl Aspen is one year older than Simon (Simon was actually due one day before her birthday). Its fun now that our kids are going to know each other since birth. She's due with another baby in April...I'm hoping it a boy for Simon to play with!

October
This month has been busy and I'm so glad (I like being busy, for the most part). I need Andrew to teach me how to change our RAW formatted pictures from our SLR camera into JPEG form so I can post some pictures from this month.
A week ago all of Andrew's family was in town for his dad's wedding reception. Its so much fun when all his siblings and all our nieces and nephews get together. That same weekend we had a "sister's week" (just 2 and a half days) up at the cabin in Heber and I got to spend my first night without Simon! It was a lil sad, but mostly really nice. I didn't take any pictures, so I'll have to get them from my sister-in-laws.
I just recently got called to be the primary music chorister in my ward....yeah I can't sing! We have our yearly program in a few weeks so I'm busy getting up to speed on that.
With Halloween around the corner we've been trying to do all the "festive" activities that are around here. We went to a place in West Jordan called Gardner Village. Its basically a lil village of cute craft type shops and in October they decorate it for Halloween. I thought there would be a great pumpkin patch there, but there wasn't, so that is still on my list of things to do before the end of the month.
We've been trying to take advantage of the good weather lately, cause you never know how long its going to last. Last weekend we went up past Vivian Park (in Provo Canyon) and had a picnic with my brother-in-law and his family. They have four boys who are all so cute and funny to be around. They love Simon and can't wait until he's big enough to run around with them (I can't wait too).
Here's a photo of my sister Julianne and Simon. We are lucky enough to get to hang out with her every Sunday. We'll miss you while you are in California!
Simon's blessing was last month and I'm just now uploading the photos to our computer (we did not take enough). We did use your blanket grandma! Thanks!
