Thanksgiving 2011
Our Thanksgiving was pretty low-key this year. We spent the day with family and loved every minute of it! We started the day at my Grandparents home in Bountiful for a yummy Turkey-day lunch. It was fantastic to be with my family. We missed the Spencer's this year, so Jake was a lonely kiddo this year...but we still had fun! That afternoon we headed over to Steve's sister's home in Sandy. We enjoyed Cheri's delicious pies. Michael (Steve's nephew) was in town from Denver. Henry (Steve's brother) was also in town from Portland. This was both mine and Jake's first time meeting Henry. It was great and we look forward to visiting them someday (I have never been to the NorthWest area). Funny story...at least to me... Steve is talking to his niece who proceeds to tell us that Steve's brother was in town for Thanksgiving and that we should come over that night for pie and to see them. She tells Steve that Henry really wanted to see the baby. I say to Steve, he has never met me, doesn't he want to meet me too? Steve says, "Well, wives come and go in this family!" Haha...I thought it was pretty funny...although, this wife isn't going anywhere :) Since Jenny wasn't around this Thanksgiving, I failed to take any pictures. Thanks to Emily for snapping one that night...here is Jake on Thanksgiving!
Tummy to Back
On November 27th, Jake rolled from his tummy to his back for the first time. I was down on the floor playing with Jake and put him on his tummy. The doctor has encouraged more "tummy time" so his neck muscles will continue to get stronger. Steve was on the chair behind me and I had turned to talk to him...when Steve says, Jake just rolled onto his back! I was so sad that I missed it! So, I put him back on his tummy and watched until he did it again... 5 minutes later, he did it again! He is getting so big and starting to hit those milestones. Love my boy!
Jake - 4 month Stats
I'm so behind on blogging! How does the time go by so fast?! Jake had his 4-month check-up with Dr. Dreamy on November 23rd. He is a big, healthy, growing boy!
- Weight - 15 lbs 7 oz (60th percentile)
- Height - 26.5 inches (93rd percentile)
- Head Circ - 17.5 inches (95th percentile)
Watching him get 3 shots isn't the most fun part of the visit, but Jake is a tough little trooper! We couldn't be happier and continue to love every moment of being this little boy's parents. It is the most amazing gift and experience we could ask for. Love him!

Jake's Bedroom/Nursery
We moved Jake up to his bedroom a few weeks ago (he was 3 months old). We had some things to get set-up and things to take down from the old "office". Now it is all set-up, he is sleeping pretty good at night, and I love how it turned out! Quite simple, but there is a sweet and calm feeling when you are in it. I love this little boy so much and can't believe he is ours forever!
Our Little Utah Ute!
It was a tough start to the football season if you are a Utah Ute fan. However, with 2 wins in the past 2 weeks, we are now quite proud to wear our Ute gear. Go Utes!!
