Fun Stuff

This is Austins first bath. He seemed to enjoy the warm water!
For my birthday and part of my Christmas my mom bought the Willowtree creche for me! She gave it to me on my birthday so I could have it to display all through the holiday. Great thinking mom! I love Willowtree figurines and was so excited to get this whole set.

My grandma and aunt that live in Utah sent a package to us for all three boys. Toys for the older two boys and a few outfits including this cute warm suit for Austin. I love these because coats just don't work with babies. So cute!

A lot has been going on the last few weeks. Chris' grandparents came for a visit. It was great to see them again. We're so glad that we got to live in Utah last fall and let our boys get to know their great grandparents. It's neat that they know who they are.


I had been debating whether or not to get new bedding before I had Austin, but ended up just using the same bedding I've had since Colin was born. It's still in good condition. I couldn't justify buying a new set this time around. Plus decorating options in an apartment are so limited. So, we got a new mobile and I just finished doing these shadow boxes with Austins initials. I'm trying to decide if I want to do his whole name instead of initials, or do ABC. So here's some pics of them and the baby side of the toy/baby room.

Okay, we're all jealous! I want that nativity too! Austin is such a cutie, it's disgusting! I love those little cuddly outfits. Somedays, like today, I wish I had one of those to warm me up! Very cute nursery by the way - the shadow boxes are a great idea!

What an adorable baby you have! And I love your shadow boxes! What a cute idea! I just might have to do that for Spencer's room. (Yes, I STILL haven't gotten around to doing his room yet!) I love your new nativity set, it's beautiful! Have you had the creche exhibit people hound you for it yet????

Laura, I actually registered to have the nativity displayed at the creche in our stake. We'll see if the rep from our ward gets back to me!
