Our Growing Boy

Patten is now nearly 11 weeks old. We consider him the miracle baby. He sleeps through the night (has since 3 weeks), has made two trips two Las Vegas with us and both times we made it to Cedar City without stopping, and has now found his smile and shares it regularly. What a baby!!

His Grandpa and Mimi, Kristin's mom's preferred name in lieu of "grandma," gave him the "Jumperoo" for X-mas. Only problem is that although he seems mature for his age he's not quite large enough for the Jumperoo. But, for now it is his space ship - at least that's what this picture reminds me of.


I hope Patten won't one day kill me for posting this picture. But I just had to show how happy he looks in the bathtub. Every other day Patten gets to do his favorite thing - splash in the bathtub. It is the cutest event I have ever seen. We lay him down in the water - he looks at us for about 3 seconds - gets a big grin on his face - and then splashes until he can't splash anymore.


And finally, a random smilely picture. Isn't he cute? We just love Patten. Particularly we love his hair and the fact that no matter what we do it refuses to stay down. Oh well, he looks stlyish.

He is so cute! I think Carley and him are about the same size--and she's 5 1/2 months. :) We were hoping to see you all last night at the Tyler's wedding, but had a sick little boy. :(
