Checkin out the news

So, I was looking at the grocery ads the other day and Luke wanted to play with the paper. He just looked so cute playing with it and pretending to read it that I took pictures. I didn't think anything of it. Just cute. However, when I told a friend about this, they informed me that I probably shouldn't let me baby eat newspaper because it's dirty. I want your honest opinion: Do you think it's really bad to give your baby newspaper to play with?

Catchin' Up!

My really good friends from back home recently moved to Idaho (which is way closer to Utah!) Over conference weekend, they came down and visited us for a couple days! It was so nice to see them and meet their adorable kids! We were able to go to the mall and just hangout. We even went to Shaun and Lanette's for dinner.

One of my favorite memories with Amber and Jon was when they blew up photos of me when I was in middle school and posted the posters all over the school for my 16th birthday! AUGH! One of the pictures was of me at a sleepover when we watched the movie "Signs" and later made tinfoil hats like in the movie. I was wearing the tinfoil and my pajamas. I was probably about 13 and completely skinny and awkward. They wrote on the signs "Kiss me! I'm 16!". Sadly, that morning I woke up sick (headache or something-- I don't remember!) but didn't go to school that day. So everyone had to make fun of me without me until the next day... what pranksters!

I've had some really good times with those two and I'm so glad we were able to see them again!

Our wish for Luke...

What a RELIEF!

So I have big news! I got an internship to complete my dietetics program! They are super super competitive (only about 1/2 the applicants get in!) I got into the Utah State Dietetic internship- it was my first choice! I am so excited and so relieved. whew! I will start next January! Yay!

Our visit to the park.

The other day we decided to go to the park with Luke because it has been warm and beautiful lately(except yesterday). Luke just seem bored though, I think you can tell that in every single picture. We just could get any laughs, even with my funny voice and faces.
Besides Luke being bored (maybe it was too bright for him), we went on the swings, on the rock climbing wall. It was nice to be out as a family. We went with Victor, Amanda, Nathaniel and Madison.
And of course we had to take a few pictures.

I little bit of an update on Luke:

• He is smiling and laughing more and more.
• He really is a good baby and sleeps through the night.
• He has been starting to grab his bottle, is very cute.
• He makes more noises now.
• He is growing really fast, some of his pajamas don't even fit him anymore.
• He hasn't been sick at all. We are really happy ( I guess Heavenly Father knows that we already are dealing with school, hwk and work)
• He got some new toys from his cousins Olivia and Claire. He loves them! He is playing with them right now (and keeps him from getting too bored!)
• He also got a HUGE bag of clothes from his primo (spanish cousin) Zander. He will definitely be stylin now!
• He is close to turning over but not quite. He can only get half way.
• and he LOVED conference! haha It was a great nap.
