M.I.A.

Sorry I haven't posted anything in a while, but my camera seems to have gone missing! When Becky was in town I took it with me when we went to seattle, we didn't use it and since then I haven't been able to find it! Which I really hope it didn't get lost in Seattle somewhere because it had the only good photo's of Ian's Dedication on it! So I am trying my hardest to locate it and will put those photos up when I find it. (hopefully)

Rice Cereal

Big Boy Food

Last night was my first attempt at giving Ian some rice cereal. Ian's Doctor suggested I try and give him some rice cereal at his night time feeding to help him sleep through the night longer, since he seems to need to eat every 3-4 hrs still. As where he used to go 5-6 hrs at night. Because He was born so big He's probably going to start needing some solids sooner. I think he only got 1/4 - 1/2 of the small serving I made him. The other 1/2 + was on his bib and face. It was definitely funny to watch his face scrunch up the first time he had it in his mouth.

Froggy Talk

Photo and video editing at www.OneTrueMedia.com

Ian is very communicative to his frog in this video. As you can see he's very good at getting to his side and he's so close to being able to grab things! Shortly after shutting my camera off he rolled from his back to his tummy for the first time!! He always seems to perform after I shut the camera off! Well, I just thought this was too cute not to share.

Motherhood

I could try to explain this picture, but trust me you wouldn't have time to read my post. This sums up motherhood for me. My mom at my side the moment I became a mom. I don't think it gets more beautiful than that.

Visiting Grandparents & Rolling Over

Great Grandpa + Grandma Grandpa

On Saturday we went down the Lacey to Visit Great Grandpa Whittaker and Grandma and Grandpa Whittaker. Great Granpa's health isn't doing very well, so we are trying to go visit as much as possible. The other baby boy in the photos with Great Grandpa is Ian's 2nd cousin Jesse who just turned one.

I love the last photo with Ian sticking his tongue out and tasting his Grandpa's shoulder.

Oh, some other very exciting news is Ian rolled over from his tummy to his back last night for the first time! He did it twice and Victor was there to catch it all too!

I thought this was a good photo to show his new dew.

Opening Day of Fishing Season

trout fishing day

Last Saturday was opening fishing day here in WA. Seeing as how Victor and I both love to fish, we went out to Hicks Lake (a very coincidental name) and tried to catch some fish. Now, the plan was to be out on the lake by 6:30 am, but we had some friends over friday night and we didn't get to bed until 2:30 am. We didn't get out on the lake until 11:30 am... Even though we got out there late and the fish weren't biting, it was a nice day to just relax on the lake and soak up the sun. Our friend David Rummel came out with us and he got 2 fish on, but they both got away. Victor took his bob off and started casting and reeled in a 2 lb trout! Sadly, that was the only catch of the day. Victor had 2 more fish on, but they both got away. (I didn't even get a bite!) Ian was really good during our 4-5 hrs on the boat. He slept the whole last half. If you notice in all of his many face shots, he got a haircut! Yup, I cut off the combover! No more Donald Trump hair... These days he's sportin' the faux hawk!
