Stats at 4 months

Oliver's 4 month stats...
18 lbs 7.5 oz
27.5 inches long
Both of which are above the 95th percentile!!  Dr Kincaid gave me a high five when he found out it was still all breast milk!!  He said we could start solids whenever we want, so we'll see when we decide to do that!!

Oliver at 4 months

Oliver is 4 months old now, as you can see Wes is starting the brainwashing early!  We bought this carrier and the first thing Wes did was see if he could cast while he was wearing it!  Thought we would get a few pictures before church, the green outfit is compliments of Linda!  Oliver will be going on his first plane ride next week...we will see how that goes!!

Wes is so proud that Oliver is holding the rod all by himself!!

We tried to comb his hair down right after his bath, but it didn't stay that way for long!

No wonder he blows out of diapers!!

Tired boy!  Right before bedtime

Oliver and Duncan

Duncan was born 3 weeks after Oliver.  I think Oli weighs like 5 pounds more than him!!  His mom Christie and I have been walking/jogging together a couple times a week, which is really good because it motivates both us to get out and exercise and of course great company!!

Three and a half months old!!

I had to get a profile shot to show his hair that is growing straight up!!

From the front...its so fine and light, when its wet it looks like he has way more hair!

I learned how to crochet at work the other night.  I made one with some cheaper yarn, then went to Hobby Lobby on Monday and bought some cute yarn and made the hat Oliver is wearing.  Its just me second beanie, but I think I should have used a smaller needle to it would be a little warmer for the winter.  I'm pretty excited about it though, because I LOVE babies in hats or headbands!!

My first fish

Wes and I's first date without Oliver was going out on the boat at banks to fish, while Oli stayed back with Grandma.  We were only gone for about 2 hours, but I don't think Wes has ever loved me more than when I caught this small mouth bass (except MAYBE when I gave birth to Oli!)  So I DO NOT like to touch fish, they freak me out, this was the second attempt to hold the fish up for a picture.  The first time I may have dropped the fish screaming, leaving Wes to catch the flopping fish in the boat!!  Wes caught five or six fish most bigger than mine, but needless to say Wes was very proud of me and we had a great time fishing together for our first date!

Oliver's Blessing

Today Wes gave Oliver his name and a blessing at church.  My parents, Carson and Jena drove over for the occasion.  My mom made Oliver this little (well not that little) white romper to wear for the blessing.  Wes gave a beautiful blessing in front of the entire congregation!  Jena took all these pictures when we got home. 

I love his lips!!!

Family Reunion

Last week Oliver and I took a road trip with Emy, TJ, Russell, and Amelia up to Cardston for a family reunion.  We broke up the trip with a stop at Sullivan Lake to see the Russell family at the "non reunion" that almost everyone went to.  It was so fun to introduce Oliver to my family there and in Cardston to my mom's side of the family.  Obviously everyone was surprised at how big he is for only being 3 months!!  This picture was taken in the Levitt cemetery where my Grandpa Cahoon and Aunt Colleen are buried, we went and sang at both grave sites.  The scenery is Cardston and Levitt is amazing, there are mountains, wheat fields and rolling hills.
