Motherhood.  It is so fun to be home with Bradley.  I love taking care of our household, being my own boss, and seeing all the cool new stuff Bradley learns everyday. Also, notice being a mom does not leave much time for hair appointments... look how naturally "NOT BLONDE" pregnancy made me.. I gotta get some highlights and get my old hair back. 

I am working on a 450 page blurb book of our 7 years together before kids.  I think it will be great for a kids to see one day.  All the cool stuff their parents did. 

City Creek Mall in Downtown Salt Lake.  

 

Recently I have discovered it is okay to try many different lipsticks and wear them based on mood and outfit.  I have about 10 different shades I experiment with. Although some days just some good old lip balm feels the most beautiful.

Fall:  I am ready for a new season, i am feeling the need for change

Produce, Lately I cannot get enough of it, especially vegetable's from the garden.  I have been eating corn almost every night. I love to make homemade pizzas and pile it with peppers, cucumbers, mushrooms, olives.  I also love making anything with garden tomatoes.  Romaine Lettuce is a big hit for me lately too.  I also eat half an avocado everyday.  I just love produce.

Average Day Made Special

Yesterday I started the day working out, running errands, and then going through all the clothes in my closet trying to get rid of stuff I have not worn in awhile, when the doorbell rang and these flowers were waiting.  Thanks Marty for making this average day special.  I love them.

Month Three

I am becoming one of those moms that only talks about my kid. But I just love him so much!!!

Here is what Bradley is up to at 3 months:
He almost is sleeping through the night.. we go about 5-7 hours and then he needs fed and goes right back to bed
He laughs and smiles a lot
He plays with his toys right after he eats and he giggles a lot while playing
He likes to go in the jogging stroller with mom
He loves the car
He has the darkest blue eyes I have ever seen
He loves bathtime
He still has a small cry
He seems to only throw up on Marty
He likes to go to dad's office for lunch
He likes to wear hurley
He is blonde like mom
He is still in newborn pants but not tops.. he is actually quite long...for 2 short parents
He likes to be wrapped up like a burrito for bedtime

Favorite Things

Here we go again... What I am loving right now.

Maxi Dresses- So cute and very flattering, especially while losing the baby weight...gotta feel cute in the meantime and these dresses do the trick.

 My BOB Jogging stroller... it just glides while I me and Bradley do our morning run.  I can even just push it one handed which i love... and it gives me little excuse to not workout. Thanks again MOM for this wonderful gift.

 Apparently when you have a child, it is difficult to get a lot out of church... (no surprise right)... we try to get through all three hours on Sunday but usually a messy diaper, or a really bad throwup, or just a fussy baby makes it hard... so this is where I have been getting my spiritual fill...which is great..because I am running on empty on Sundays.

The Best Chocolate Ever!!!

 

I try having just 2 a day ;)

Marty and I have been Abel to still go on Dates, even with our new addition.. It is nice to get that alone time with my husband..looking forward to the next date..Last date included the Avengers and Mexican Food.

 Sleep... I get up so much earlier with a newborn then i ever did for work, as soon as my head hits the pillow I am out! Love SLEEP.

The easy swaddle blanket... I hate trying to swaddle on my own..this velcro invention makes it easy. And Bradley loves this position when it is bedtime.

Every Sunday I make a Monday-Friday to do list for the week.. I don't always get everything checked off, but the important things get done and I am able to just focus on Bradley. Love my weekly to do list and love being a mom.
