You are 3 months old Sawyer! It has been so fun getting know the little person you are. We love you so much, more than Mommy or Daddy could ever put into words. Here are some things about you:

     *you are 23 inches long and 15 pounds
     *you only like to sleep on your tummy
     *you are happiest in the morning and like to get up early
     *you like your mom to put you to bed
     *you smile with your whole face and we love it
     *your favorite song is I Am a Child of God-you love it when daddy hums it to you
     *bath time always makes you happy, you are definately a water baby
     *you always try to sit up especially in your car seat and stroller
     *all your hair is pretty much gone now but you do have a cute bald head
     *you really like phineas and ferb like your uncle Justin
     *you are a very noisy sleeper and grunt all night long
     *you love to snuggle with your mommy in the morning(but only the morning)
     *you drool like crazy
     *everyone that sees you thinks you are the cutest baby ever!

Growing too fast!

  The last few weeks have been super fun and time has been flying way too fast for my liking!!  Already Sawyer is getting sooo big and changing so much. It's crazy and I am not sure I like him growing up so quickly! I got to celebrate my first Mother's Day which was awesome- got beautiful diamond earrings from daddy and Sawyer, had our first trips to the park and the zoo, and overall just been savoring every moment with our pretty cool little guy.  I have to admit, he is a pretty high maintenance baby but we love him none the less.  He takes after his mother as in he never likes to sleep.  (I think my mom is secretly happy I got a baby that was just like me!)  His happiest moments are in the morning- he totally smiles and giggles at me and Jeff which is incredible! He also has a phobia of cameras apparently because every time I grab one he stops smiling.  I will catch him one of these days!  Right now Mom is his favorite- which I kinda love.  Dad feels like chopped liver he says, but I tell him to just give it time and then he will be the favorite too.  We are looking forward to summer and all of our "firsts" with our little man!!

Blessing Day

   We gave Sawyer a name and a blessing on Sunday, May 6th, 2012 in the Cypress 5th ward.  What an amazing day it was for our whole family!  Jeff did such an amazing job, and Sawyer was actually quiet the whole time! I was so grateful that so many people came and supported us- the Sorenson's even drove down to be there from St. George, Utah!  I look at each one of the men who stood in that priesthood circle and know without a doubt that they will always love and look after my son. What a sweet blessing as his mother to know that he has worthy men to guide him through this crazy life and be examples for him.  Thank you to everyone who made this day such a special and sacred one for us!
P.S. It was also Jeff and I's 6th wedding anniversary that day- pretty cool :)
