Eatin' Time!

Spencer is pretty much always a happy boy, but a few days ago he even thought it was fun when we wiped his face. 

To add some excitement to your life, here are a bunch of pictures featuring the only person we take pictures of......

This one cracks me up! I must have caught him blinking.

Playing on the bed.

In March, Spencer and I drove to Portland the same weekend that Dad, Mom, and Laurie were visiting.  It was a quick trip, but we had fun seeing everyone!

Spencer reminds us of Lucky from 101 Dalmations-  He wants to make sure he doesn't miss a thing when the TV's on!

Falling asleep mid-meal...

The computer!!!

This little dude was quite unaware that his first Easter came and went, but he did enjoy this bunny our neighbor gave him!

The day after Easter, Jordan gave Spencer his first haircut.  He obviously doesn't have a lot of hair, but there were some random longer patches, so we decided to even things out.  He liked the experience and was so good!

(although it looks as though his fingers may be in danger in this pic, you can breathe easy because he didn't get cut)

These are some after photos- isn't the transformation quite dramatic?

Just enough to put in his baby book :)

This is someone's favorite place to go #2.  I think it's hilarious.

Whenever Spencer sees the camera, he has to come closer to investigate.

And this picture is just so cute!

The Last Couple Months

Can you find the baby in this picture?

Spencer loved looking out Grandma and Grandpa McCoy's front window when we visited for Thanksgiving.

He fell asleep mid-chew during Thanksgiving dinner!  Apparently it's not just turkey that causes drowsiness :)

We helped set up John and Connie's Christmas decorations after Thanksgiving - Spencer's inspecting our work.

Spencer is growing so fast!  He are some updates on this cute boy:

* At his 6 month appointment last week he weighed 18 lbs. 13 oz!  

I am building some serious muscle people! 

* He rolls around a lot- especially in his crib.

* He loves being able to sit up :)

* He is one of the happiest babies I've ever seen and readily smiles at anyone who gives him attention!

* He enjoys eating real food!  His favorite so far is sweet potatoes- and I couldn't feed him his potatoes fast enough today.  As soon as the spoon left his mouth, he would open wide for the next bite!

* He loves playing with us!  Especially when we hide and then pop up!

* He also has two teeth that came in last week!

This is just a cute picture.  He must have been wiped out. :)

We spent Christmas with all the McCoys and it was so much fun!  I guess I didn't take very many pictures of the festivities.  Spencer enjoyed chillin' on Grandma and Grandpa McCoy's king-size bed.

All the cousins in their Christmas pajamas on Christmas Eve, right before bed!

After Christmas, we all flew down to Mesa!  Spencer got to see some relatives for the first time.  Here he's meeting Great Grandma and Papa Tutt!

He also met the Bevans, Suzanne, and Lizzie.  Having fun with Luke!

Christmas break was so nice.  I loved all the time we were able to spend with our families!  

four months

Isn't he a sweetie? Time is flying by way too fast!  I can't believe my baby is four months old!  

He just had his doctor appointment a few days ago. Here are his stats:

 weight: 15 lbs. 15 oz. (72%)

length: 25 in. long. (54%)

head circumference: 41.2 cm. (23%)

He is always so mesmerized by his monkey mobile, and he'll wiggle, kick, smile and talk to them!

And this is the view from our window today!  It's the second time it has snowed this week.  I took a look outside this morning and had to break out the hot chocolate.  Just in time for the holidays to begin!

This Fall

 I think Spencer had a fun first Halloween!  He didn't go trick-or-treating (of course), but we did invite our friends over for some goodies.  Here are the Amys and our babies!  Spencer and Madison are quite fond of each other- Madison likes giving him kisses!

 I was able to go pick a bunch of apples in some orchards nearby and so we made juice!  It was so yummy.

Another one of Spencer's friends is our neighbor Adele.  She is so cute and loves to say Spencer's name.  Here they are watching their Dads play some football.  

We drove to Portland to visit Landen and Kristen a few weekends ago- and then went to the BYU game in Corvallis!  Jordan was especially pumped to be able to go.  The weather was perfect and Spencer was pretty good during the game.  Plus, we won which felt pretty awesome :)

Spencer even took a nap in the middle of all the noise!

It was so fun to see Sophie and Piper- and they loved spending some time with Spence.  

And here are just a bunch of cute pictures of our 3 1/2 month old!

Spencer likes TV way too much!  I don't think TV is good for babies, so when it's on we'll turn him so his back is facing the screen, and he'll twist and turn so he can still see- he is a pretty determined boy!

He loves sleeping all spread out
