Gage's Room

Gage's room has been a work in progress ever since we found out we were pregnant.  Not knowing what we were having made it hard but I also didn't want to pick a theme that I would have to redo when he gets older.  So looking on pinterest I found some things I really wanted to do and had to wait until we knew if we were having a boy or girl.  I wanted to put pictures of him up instead of random animals and such.  I came across a smoking good deal and was finally able to put his room together.  I ordered pictures of him from a company that does canvas pictures and they were 85% off.  I couldn't resist ordering Gage's pictures now.

These are two pictures of Gage right after he was born and his footprints.

 The after picture.
The saying I found on pinterest.  It says "On a typical spring day at 4:09 in the afternoon on 05 16 2013 they placed a 6lb, 10oz miracle in our arms.  One week early, and only 1 1/2 hours after arriving at the hospital He was perfect.  We named him Gage Stephen." The top picture is the first picture we took of Gage and the bottom is later that evening.

The final product. 

The pictures turned out perfect and his room is just how I wanted it.  I love it!!!  Now I guess it is time to put him in his room.  I will miss having him next to the bed and listening to his noises.

4th of July Celebration

For the 4th of July we went camping to our favorite spot.  Kyle had both the 4th and the 5th off so off we went.  I was excited to finally use the blanket I made for July.  We had a really good time.  We met up with some friends at Brianhead to watch the fireworks.  We heard they were really good and they really were.  Probably the best show I have seen.  I was in the truck with Gage cuz he was hungry so we missed out on being outside in the rain and I guess the lightning was really cool with the fireworks too.  It was nice to get out of town and hang out with some friends.

All dressed up for the 4th.  This is also the first pictures of him smiling on camera.  Such a cutie!

It was cold so he was wrapped up in the blanket and I put a rag around his head to keep him warm.

Waiting for it to get dark enough for the show.


We hope to be camping again and close enough to drive to Brianhead cuz they had a really good show.  We were surprised how many people actually came.
