It's a...

BOY! I had an ultrasound yesterday and found out that we are having another little baby boy. We are super excited that Grant is going to have a brother to play with and that we don't have to buy any clothes! :) The baby is great and I'm getting bigger everyday. It's so much fun to sport a baby bump. I just love being pregnant, but I love having babies more!! Can't wait for March...so it better get here sooner rather than later!!

We had a fun Halloween. Grant was a little lion. I found his costume at DI for $3! I was ready to buy a lion costume from Baby Babinski for $30, but luckily I went to the American Fork DI  before and found his costume for 10% of the cost. Needless to say he'd look cute in anything, but he makes a stinkin cute lion!

THE BIG O-N-E!!

It's been one whole year since Grant was born. Everyone told me it would fly by, but I didn't realize how fast it would fly! It's been a great year and we had two great celebrations with family. There isn't much to say besides the obvious fact that he got SPOILED! I was pretty disappointed that he didn't dig into either one of his cakes like I was expecting him to do. It was still great though!!

So...I shouldn't try to make a business out of cake decorating

He had a disgusted look every time he touched the cake

FREE BABY STUFF!!

So I just found an ad on KSL in the Free/Classifieds section for FREE nursing supplies at www.uddercover.com. Use the promo code "candie" So I just ordered a really cute nursing cover (because I never used one with Grant, but I always wanted one.) Anyway I just had to pay shipping!! Then it leads you over to another website for some more free things and I ended up ordering a cute baby sling...for free, again you just pay the shipping cost. Pretty sweet, huh? I know the companies make money on the shipping, but it's still a great discount...so if you are in need of baby gifts or need one yourself go check it out!!

Welcome Autumn :)

Happy that autumn is here for a little while. I love jacket weather and being able to go outside at noon without sweating to death. Since Grant starting walking we have been able to hit all the local parks. He loves the sand and swings. Besides rocks and balls Grants favorite things are books. He could sit on my lap and look at books all day. He loves looking at animals and cars. I think most of all he loves music. Every night before dinner we turn on some 'dance' music and let him go at it. He inherited his dancing skills from his parents (not something to be proud of) but he sure is cute trying.

I'm now 17 weeks pregnant and feeling great. I am SO excited to have another little baby! I keep having daydreams about checking into the hospital and then cuddling my sweet little newborn. We find out in a couple of weeks what the gender of the baby is...so that is super exciting :) Jeff is convinced it's a girl so we'll see!!

 

11 months

Today Grant is 11 months old!! He is pretty much running everywhere now. He loves to get into everything...especially the fridge. Not sure why, but whatever. He also love love loves rocks! We love to play peek-a-boo and patty cake. He loves building blocks and anything he can knock over.

On Friday we had a double wedding!! Mike & Angela and Matt & Brittney were sealed in the SLC Temple. Matt & Brittney were also sealed to Brittney's son Aiden. It was such a spiritual day.

Grant is 10 months old now and starting to walk everywhere! He is still pretty unsteady and only takes 5 or 6 steps at a time, but he's getting the hang of it quickly. He's also saying "dada" and "mama" all the time which is so darling. He's got the cutest little baby voice. We spend our days taking naps together and walking up and down the sidewalks with his little walker. This last weekend we spent with family at my uncles cabin. It was so fun for Grant to be around his little second cousins and be outside in the beautiful mountains.
