Home, conference, blessing. Great weekend

Our sweet eskimo boy on his way to the blessing. I LOVE his outfit, John was blessed in the same one :) We were so blessed with TONS of people supporting us and little Jack in Manti. I'm so glad i got sick last time we planned the blessing and had to end up doing it in Manti, it was so fun to have so much family able to come. We love our families! Thanks for you support!
Grandpa's just chillin'

Four generations on my side. John's grandma left before we could snag a picture of his four generations. Its weird to think if i'd of had jack just 2 years before, i could have had a 5 generation picture. We miss you Grandma Giles!

This is Jack watching conference.... i don't know how he got away with sleeping through the whole thing!

Just watching conference with Grandma V, lol, we loved this picture of Jack, his cheeks look HUGE!

I lOVED general Conference. I'm always so excited to read the talks again later, especially the ones that i miss. I'm excited for the ensign. We wow, i've felt so blessed all weekend long, we're so blessed to have living prophets to teach us the way to go, we're so blessed to have such wonderful, supportive family, and i'm so blessed to have such an amazing man for a husband. Oh, and we're sure blessed to have Jack, we still love him ;)

Dad and Jack

Jack has an amazing dad. And i hope Jack realizes how cool it was to be blessed in his dad's blessing outfit. I love it

Fall fun.

Our latest Family Photo :)

Pretty leaves, beautiful hike. Good times.

Us. obviously

Isn't it beautiful! I LOVE the Fall!

I love Jack's big eyes

John had to bring his fishing pole, that sad part is that since he was holding Jack in insisted on trying to fish, he warned me it would be find of hard with the river, the mosss, the tree's all around etc but i thought i could do it. Anyway, with the first cast i got a snag on the bottom of the river and lost John's bran-new favorite Lure, never even used before....and i didn't catch anything.

John's inovated way of holding jack's binky in for him

Getting ready to go hiking....

Jack's stunned, "whats going on look," so cute

a little less picture taking, a little more mothering...

As much as i LOVE taking pictures of this little man, i probably should pay a little more attention to details....his details....

If i'd-a known he was THROWING UP i don't think i'd be posing for the camera, he sure pulled a fast one on me... He does that a lot....Jack's now over a month old....wow times flying.

random.

Here's just a bunch of random pictures of some things we've been up to lately. This Picture was taken today, he seriously is getting so big SO fast! I can't believe how fast he's growing! Me and my handsome little man, i love him so much!
Dad with his little "tank" as he calls him, i still haven't figured out where that nickname came from, he's always been so little and is just finally growing.... whatever

(But that is a classic Jack look)
So is this one....

Our fun walk by the river the other day, we used the snuggly and LOVED It! I ordered a sling, and it came so fast, i was so excited, but it got here, and it was the wrong size dang it! I have to send it back and wait again....

I thought having babies only made moms crazy.... apparently that isn't true

So sweet

John and I have a nieghbor (who wishes to remain annonymous http://carterpeople.blogspot.com/) that I swear wants to be just like John, he's ALWAYS wearing the same outfit as him....weird, i know....YES PEOPLE, John really is THAT cool ;)

Jack's first fishing trip, it was so exciting that he just slept through it...

We were having a little but of some diaper issues....Low rider!

This is how i love to burp Jack, he just totally relaxes when i hold him like this, i especially love it when he holds my hand too :)

Blessing

Hey! We're blessing this cute little boy this Sunday (the 13th). Let me know if you want to come and i'll get you the details, call me ;)

Photo Shoot

Wow i love this boy

Bath Time!

Jack LOVES his baths. He would seriously sit for hours with his head under the faucet and be totally content.

Now that his cord fell off we can give him real baths in the tub and he loves those too. Especially at the end when we let the faucet rinse him good...something about the flowing water really gets him ;)

Catch up- Visitors and Home

The Sunday we came home we had all sorts of visitors come to see Jack (and us). Julie and Trent came with their family, Great G-ma and Pa Peterson came and Walter came all the way from Maryland to visit! Too bad he didn't bring his family.... It was fun to see everyone, thanks for visiting!
Grandma V came for a few days to help out too, and Jack just looks so small in his buggy!

The one is of him under the lights, he was such a good sport.

Picture catch-up!

At the Hospital

Just some visitors! Bringing our baby home

We were met at the door with a "Jack"-o-latern sign saying welcome home Jack, and a beautiful centerpiece full of "Jack" things. Emily and Natalie informed us the night before we came home that they had previously been playing "Slap Jack" Oh great.....a glimpse of things to come :)

We Love Jack!
