The Holiday Season

This is a picture of Austin and me taken today. On Dec. 26 he had his 2 month check up. He weighed in at 14 lbs. 10.5 oz. (95th percentile)... 23 1/4 inches long (75th percentile) and 16 1/2 inches head circumference (90th percentile). I think Austin will be just as big as his daddy. He got four shots and it was the saddest thing that I've ever had to laugh at. His bottom lip stuck out so far and he just screamed. Poor little guy! Thank goodness he is a healthy baby, though. Nursing is going much better than with the other two boys and for that I'm truly grateful esp. during flu season.

It's been a few crazy weeks so I'll be posting pictures occassionally from our busy holiday. We were fortunate to have all of Chris' siblings here for Christmas this year as well as all of mine. We really enjoyed everyone's company and wish we lived closer to them.

This past Sunday (12/31) we blessed our sweet Austin. It was wonderful to have each of our family members present and even a few friends. We had a luncheon after church at my parents house and really enjoyed all that were present. All together I think we had around 30 people there.

We wanted to get a family picture with my side, but for some reason it's crazy after sacrament meeting and this is the best we got...minus Shawn. He ran off to class with a friend that is in our ward.

At least I got a cute one of the men in my life! Colin got a new suit for Christmas...it's one thing he wanted!

My sister and her husband moved to Austin this weekend. I was sad to say goodbye, but they're so close I'm sure we'll see them soon. Just like Chris and I, it will be a wonderful experience being themselves and making lifelong friends in a new place.
