Our 4th of July Celebration

We had our annual 4th of July Sup party on Saturday this year. It was so much fun having all the family here. Aubrey had a blast with all her cousins. It was neat for Carter to meet all his aunts, uncles and cousins.
The small kids loved the bounce house.


The big kids loved the pool.


Carter hanging with his Grandma and Grandpa.

We then celebrated birthdays and opened gifts.



Carter is his 4th of July outfit. I tried my hardest to get Aubrey and Carter together for a picture but she was on the move the whole day. I thought the one I took of Carter in his PJ's that night was a cute pic too.


Then we had cake.

Then it was time for the firework extravaganza.

Aubrey held her first sparkler.

The show was awesome! The guys did a great job. The BBQ was so yummy and it was so nice being with family.

Earlier that day our nephew Ben was baptised. It was very nice and we where so grateful to be a part of it.

Visiting the Bay Area

The weekend before the 4th of July we went to the Bay Area to see our family. Friday night we went to mom and dads and had a fun pizza night.

On Saturday Carter and I went to my moms best friend, Devon's daughters bridal shower in San Jose.

Devon's daughter in law had there first baby 4 days after Carter was born. Her name is Kimber and she is adorable. We took some pictures of the proud grandmas at the shower.

Carter is 2 Months

Our little man is 2 months today!
Can you believe it?
Carter is doing great and growing like a weed. He had his 2 month appointment yesterday and the doctor is very pleased with his progress. He is very alert and he started smiling on Monday June 28th.
He stats or as followed:
Weight: 11lbs. 1 oz
Length: 22 1/4 inches
Carter had a bunch of shots yesterday and he did great! He cried a little and had a bit of a fever but is doing good now. As for his daily activities he loves to be held and he loves tummy time. He sleeps great when he has a full belly and when his big sister isn't around (Aubrey loves giving Carter kisses and hugs even when he is sleeping). His nightly routine is going good. He wakes up once at 2:30am and then again at around 5:30am.
Last weekend we went on our first big trip to the Bay Area to visit with family and friends. Carter got to meet his Great Grandpa and Great Grandma it was very exciting. I will post those pictures in the next post.
Happy 2 months Carter. We love you very much and feel so blessed to call you our son.
