4 Months +... A few pics to get the new month rolling...

We went to Helena for Amy Berry's wedding over the weekend of September 13th. Unfortunately, we forgot to bring the camera to the wedding! Oops! Here are a few pictures we took the following day while having a picnic with our friends the Harden family!

August 16, 2008: A night of adventure!

Cormick and Benjamin: Best Buddies!

So, as mentioned before, our friends Ellen and Peter have a baby (Ben), who is 3 weeks younger than Cormick. We recently decided it would be brilliant to have a monthly date weekend where they watch our kid for an evening and we watch theirs on the other evening.

Last night was our turn for a date. We had an awesome time! We went out to a nice dinner and then played poker for a couple hours.
Tonight was their turn and ours to babysit. Benjamin and Cormick had a great time!!! (Actually, I don't think they are aware that the other one exists yet... but let's not get technical!) Here are a few snapshots of their wild evening...

"Whoa Ben! Calm down buddy!"

Not bedtime.... SAFARI time!

August 2008

3 Months Old

Posted on August 14th: So... I don't have much to post here yet as he just turned 3 months quite recently, but I had to post this terrible quality video of him rolling over! (Major accomplishment in life, I know!) He first rolled over a week or so ago, but I decided it didn't count because he wouldn't do it again. This video is of him rolling over for the 3rd time on August 12th. I had never seen it so I got a little excited and dropped the camera... luckily I get pull it together and capture this glorious act!

July 2008

2 Months Old

Sorry! The boy is growing so much! All I have are mostly just pics of him from this month!

He has gotten to be a big strong beast this month!

Things to tell about:

*Nicknames: Nubby, the Beast, Barfboy (still... but improving daily)

*Accomplishments: Laughs a lot, fantastic head lifting ability... (hmmm... that sounds kinda lame, but we find it exciting), weighed in at 13lbs on the dot and was 23 inches (I may need to double check that...) at his 2 month appointment, is getting much better at eating without being a complete nutcase (aka: much slower and more relaxed now instead of gulping like he may never eat again.)

At his two month check up the doctor told us that he should be recognizing his name by 4 months. This could be a problem as we pretty much have been calling him Nubby ALL the time. We will have to work on that!

Dan and I ran the Missoula Marathon RELAY with our good friends Ellen and Peter McKenzie on July 13th. It was glorious fun! We were dead last of the relay teams, but seeing as how Ellen and I had just had babies we consider it quite an accomplishment. I totally hurt my hip trying to train for it and the race didn't help the healing process.... by the end of the month, I could finally run again after letting my hip heal, but I am a huge slacker and have been pretty bad about it. Cormick loves the jogging stroller when I actually do get out! Actually, he just sleeps in it the whole time, but it looks like it would be great fun.
