First Proffessional pictures!

Spencer in daddy's hands. He was very tired at this point. This was the last picture that was taken of him.

I was so happy that she got him to smile in these pictures. There are a couple he isnt sure what he wants to do. but this is cute. He is such a chub.

In this one he is sitting in what they call a baby saddle. He was slipping around everywhere with the satin and velvet.
The lady had to prop him up for this picture and grab a can full of beans to make him perk. Then William had to hold his side so he wouldn't fall over. I love this picture its my favorite.
Our first family picture. He is only 8 weeks and smiling on command. Its so cute. I love this picture. Check out the blond hair and the chub.

Its so fun being a mom and looking at the pictures and seeing how far he has come from the day he was born. I love seeing a smiling face everyday. He giggles once and a while but its just a Ha! instead of a hehehehe! but its still cute and its always when we are not paying attention. I cant wait to see what is to come of Spencer. who he is gonna look like. What his personality is gonna be etc.

We went to our WIC appointment this week and they were so excited at how big he is getting. He was 13lbs 10oz. and 23 1/2 inches long. Shows you how much he really has grown. He now wears 6-9 month clothes. He skipped the 3-6 month clothing. But certain clothes he can still wear the 0-3 month stuff but others it has to be the 6-9 months.

Good job to granny on the blessing outfit she made it to fit a 3 month baby and he fits it perfectly still today. If you look at the picture of him on his tummy he has coat tails. The outfit is so cute.

Im having a hard time letting somone else watch spencer. I just dont want to let him go yet. And its harder since im breastfeeding too. its sucha pain to pump off a couple bottles since the only ime i have extra milk is at night. I have to pump off for the two nights before to prep for only a couple hours.... such a pain. Im also having a hard time choosing who i want to watch him. His has to be someone that i really trust and have known for a while.

Valentines Day!

So for valentines day we went out on a triple date with a couple friends of ours and our new babies. We went to chili's for lunch then we went over and went bowling. Spencer slept until we went bowling it was insane cause he fell asleep at 11:30 and didnt wake up till 3. He never does that during the day unless we are out and about so i had to wake him aup and feed him. The other couple we went with have a little girl and she is so cute. But she is like 4 months and the same size as spencer... he is a chunk. they both started out watching up bowl then they decided they wanted to sleep so we have a picture of them "sleeping together." there was some serious bowling coming from them. hehe! We had fun. We then went to dinner at Rancho Chico's and theyboth decided they wanted to soil their diapers. but their bathrooms there are one stall and they dont have a changing station so we layed them on the bench at the table and changed them, good thing we were in the corner. The waiters loved having the kids there. They kept coming by and smiling at them and touching them is was so hilarious. After dinner we decided to go home because the kids were getting ready and deciding they wanted to sleep. It was a fun triple date for us. I think we are gonna to get the kids to hang out more often.

Spencer is 7 weeks old this weekend. This last weekend we had him blessed. We had family come from southern idaho to visit. It was so nice to see them. We had Great granny, Great Aunt Julie, Great Uncle Doug, Granny, Grandpa Shuldberg, Grandpa Dave, Uncle Roy and his Girlfriend, Uncle Douglas, Aunt Shielah, Ben, Christopher, Evan, and Alexis. We had Grandma and grandpa Weyen come to our ward for the blessing and Grandpa and grandma Bouvier too. The night before we went out to old country buffet with the solomon side of the family and all were excited to see spencer. They could not leave him alone. But it was nice to see them all. Spencer got tired and fell asleep during dinner. Great uncle doug made a changing table for us and had uncle Roy and Grandpa shuldberg bring it with them in their truck. The changing table is very nice and is made out of oak. Uncle doug says it will be the only one too because it was so hard to build. A couple days before he was bringing it out of the shop and slipped and fell on some ice and broke one of the legs. He had to spend the next couple days fixing it.

Sunday morning we all met at the church and spencer was blessed by William. The blessing was short but sweet. Alot of good things were said and cant wait for spencer to grow and see what comes of it.

This weekend was fun but very tiring. I didnt realize how much it would affect me emotionally afterwards. I spend the next couple days after that very down on myself. It was hard to pick myself back up but i had to do it for myself and for spancer and william. Especially for spencer because im so afraid to hurt him out of anger or depression. I think most the reason why i was like this was because of my inlaws. The same old thing for those who know the situation there. I almost acted out to my mother in law in the middle of the church in front of tons of people but i bit my tongue and walked away. It was hard because i wanted my baby and she was holding him. Im glad i didnt do anything irrational for the sake of william and spencer, But lets say this i almost said goodbye to her forever... sad i know but she deserves it. I dont need to be treated like crap from her and i dont want to put up with it.
I had to take a deep breath and think.

Anywho, Spencer is now smiling alot. Everyone was telling me all weekend how he was smiling at them. I love it! i was able to capture a picture of him smiling. I know its fuzzy but he was moving my hand when i took it. We think now he many be starting to giggle a little too. Its so cute i cant believe how much he has grown in the last few weeks. He is now up tp 13 pounds 6 ounces as of tuesday. I cant help to think how perfect and innocent he is and once he gets old enough its all gonna change in a flash. He is starting to get his own little personality. I love too see william with him. especially when they are playing together. i cant help to stop what im doing just to watch it so cute and sweet at the same time. How william so big and manly coming down and playing in a innocent sweet way. Its lots of fun especially when he makes funny voices and sounds and spencer just watches him or smiles back. i want to cry everytime.

I went to the doctor yesterday and got the ok for being healed. Im still quite tender for sme reason. Its hard on me because i want to satisfy my husband but i cant because my body isnt fully recovered yet.

hope you enjoy the pictures. I took the ones of him alone. My stepdad took the ones of the family ones. thanks to him.
