So cute!

Trenton and I got ourselves a video camera for Christmas so that we can share all the cute things Dallin is doing with all of you. He has started cooing and I think it is the cutest thing in the world! Here are some pictures and a video of his cooing for you...enjoy!

He's growing!

I took Dallin to his 2 month well child appointment today and good news...HE'S GROWING!!! He's exactly 9 lbs and 22 1/4 inches long. He is doing great. He has hit all of his milestones that he should. The Dr. said he should be cooing a little more than he is but it's expected for him to be behind on somethings cause of his prematurity. He has a hernia in his belly button but the Dr said that they usually go away on their own and if not we will get it taken care of when he is a year old. Getting his shots was a little dramatic but I just think he is so cute when he cries. He is all worn out now and taking a nap. Just thought I would give you all an update on how he's doing.

Dallin's first encounter with Santa

After we set up our tree on Saturday we went to the local grocery store cause they were doing pictures with Santa. We waited in line for about an hour! Luckily Dallin slept the whole time. Here are some pictures of Dallin meeting Santa for the first time.

I took the first two pictures and we got this one from the photographer. My baby is just oh so cute!

Finally some smiles caught on camera

Dallin started smiling a few weeks ago but this past week he started smiling when we talk to him and tickle him and stuff. He is happiest in the mornings and Sunday morning after he woke up and ate we were talking to him and he started smiling. I had Trenton grab the camera and I finally caught him smiling. I was SO excited. So I thought I would share them with you. They look a little goofy but he really is smiling!

This one got a little whited out by the flash but I still think he is freaking adorable!

Getting ready for Christmas

Saturday morning we got up cleaned the house and set up the Christmas Tree. This is our first Christmas Tree as a married couple. Yeah, we were lame last year and didn't set one up, but I figured this year we needed to do one for Dallin's first Christmas. It really got me in the Christmas mood and even though it's a fake tree I am happy with the way it turned out.

Dallin was a great supervisor and would let us know if it wasn't how he liked it. ;)
I only helped with the decorations. Trenton got it all set up and looking beautiful while I fed Dallin (I tried to help putting the tree together but I just made it look ugly)
Dallin helped daddy, though

The final product. Our decorations are blue and silver. I think it is beautiful. Dallin loves to sit with mommy in the rocking chair and stare at the pretty lights.
