Great Grandma Bleazard

While we were visiting my parents I really wanted to go see my grandma Bleazard and introduce her to my little boy Gage.  I'm so glad we did.  She was in a great mood and just wanted to hold Gage all day.  She kept saying how she wishes she could babysit him and I told her I would have loved it if she could.  Maybe a few years ago =)  I'm so glad that my grandma was able to meet Gage because all my other grandparents go to meet him before I did =)

His feet were cold and so she kept holding them to warm them up.  I was so proud of Gage that he was so good to let Grandma hold him and hang out.

He was so good up until he got really hungry.  I'm glad we got to go and see my grandma.  We just aren't sure how much longer we get to enjoy her.  She is 103!!

Week at Grandma B's House

I had taken the week off for mine and Kyle's wedding anniversary but he wasn't able to take the time off.  We went to my parents house for Gage's blessing and I planned on coming home that Monday so I could go to dinner with Kyle for our anniversary and then drive back either Tuesday or Wednesday.  My parents offered to drive me home so I decided to stay the whole week instead of going home and then back.

Gage and Kyle before Kyle left to come home.  I was really sad he was leaving because I wasn't planning on staying.  It was really hard on Kyle too to be away from his son for a week.

Gage in his crib that he had no desire to sleep in very much.  He had been sleeping through the night but for some reason his schedule was thrown off and he hardly slept at night.  Which made for longs days and a very tired mom.  Thank goodness my mom was so nice to take Gage in the mornings so I could go back to bed for a few hours.

My brother and sister in law were so kind to let us borrow their bouncer and swing.  I don't know what I would have done without these.  It was the only way Gage would take a nap.

Gage and his cousin Rylee.  She had the special touch and got him to sleep.

Gage and his cousin Cameron.  Cameron just wanted him to be big enough to play and he always wanted to pinch Gage's cheeks.  He would ask if when Gage wakes up if he could either hold him or pinch his cheeks =)

Gage and his grandma.  She definitely had the special touch.  She could get him to sleep all the time.

My brother also let us borrow a stroller.  Gage just looked to small to be in it =)

Getting ready to go to the fair.  The week we were home was also the county fair.  Every night they had something going on and we tried to go to everything.  Tuesday night was the hypnotist and my parents, Gage and I, Tracy and all her kids all went.  No one was volunteering to go up and the guy was threatening to cancel the show and so my mom actually went up.  She was hilarious!!!!  They thought they were on a plane and it was going to crash and none of them cared.  Then they were in Hawaii and she hula danced.  I haven't laughed that hard in a long time!!  We wished we had bought the video for the rest of our family to see.  Maybe next time.  The next day we went to a clown show and he was pretty funny but it started to rain like crazy so he ended his show very early.  I was able to go to the demolition derby with my brother Jason and his family. We had a great time and I wished Kyle had been there to see what a real derby is like.  We also went to the rodeo on Saturday and that was a lot of fun too.  I was very thankful my mom was willing to watch Gage and that my sister in law Tracy let me tag along with her to all the events.

On Saturday we went to the petting zoo at the fair.  They had some very interesting animals there.  We also went to the parade and got rained on =)

Gage and his cousin Josh who can't wait for Gage to be old enough to play with.  Josh would run to Gage when they would come over for a visit.

We had a great time visiting with my family and as always I had a hard time leaving.  I got to see some of my friends from high school and it was really nice.  It sure made me miss home but I missed Kyle more.  My parents drove me home and stayed the night and then went back home.  I wished they could have been able to stay longer.

 

Blessing & 6 Year Anniversary

We went to my parents house to the beginning of August to go to my niece Avery's baptism.  It was very neat to be there to see the choices she has made.  It is crazy how big my nieces and nephews are getting!  Also that same weekend we had Gage blessed.  All of my family and Kyle's parents were able to make it for the blessing.  It was a very special weekend.  It also happened to be mine and Kyle's 6th wedding anniversary.  I couldn't have planned a better anniversary if I tried.  We got to spend it with family and our new little guy.  Gage's grandpa Bleazard blessed him and his uncles Jason, Brian, and Wes along with his grandpa Adams were there in the circle. We are truly blessed to have family members who are strong in the church and able to bless Gage.  I was so worried that he would cry or go to the bathroom or spit up all over everyone or just be squirming around but he was calm.  Thank you to all our family who helped make this day so special for us!

We were able to go to dinner after I came home from staying with my parents for a week.  We went to Café Rio to celebrate our 6 years of marriage!  Here's to many more babe!  I love you!!!!

Back to Work

I had to go back to work in July =(  I took 9 weeks off with Gage and enjoyed every minute of it.  I found an amazing babysitter and that has made going back to work so much easier.  It has been nice seeing all my coworkers but I do miss being with Gage all the time. 

Kyles Family Reunion - Allinson

Over the July 24th holiday we went to Kyles family reunion the Allinson side.  It was up Beaver Mountain.  The area was very pretty and we had great weather.  We went up Friday night and on Saturday everyone got together for lunch.  After lunch they had an auction with some really neat things.  Gage's cousin bought him a sock monkey and his grandma Kaye and I both bought him a wooden toy that will probably turn into holiday decorations.  It was fun meeting all the relatives and camping in a new area.

Now for the picture over load.  On our way home Gage was so happy and I hurried and snapped a few pictures and I had a hard time choosing which ones to put on here so I put them all.

Also on the way home we were getting reports back from friends and family that there was a bad rain storm that flooded a lot of buildings and homes.  Thank goodness that our house was safe.  It was very nerve racking driving home not knowing if we were going to have a flooded basement or not.

2 Months

My little guy is 2 months old!!  He turned 2 months back in July.  Time is going way too fast.  I really love cuddling with Gage and he is such a great baby.  He holds his head up very well, he smiles at you, he coos and babbles and it is so cute, and he is noticing objects more.  At his 2 month check up Gage received more vaccinations and was so good.  He hardly cried.  He weighed 9 pounds 15 ounces, which puts him in the 13th percentile.  We were finally in double digits in his percentile!  His height was 23 inches which is the 50th percentile.  His head circumference is 15 3/4 which put him in the 50th percentile.  My guy is growing like a weed!  He is starting to get some rolls on his legs.

 This is one of the tye-dyed onsies I made at my family reunion.

Doesn't he just melt your heart! He is so handsome.  I love his smile.

I couldn't not put this picture in.  He makes me laugh all the time with the faces he pulls.
