Rolling Over!!!

Garrett can now roll over!!! I just can't believe it! My little boy is growing up so fast.

He is 3 1/2 mo. exactly today. I have to give all the credit to Jordan because

he is always the one to put Garrett on his tummy. Here's a video of him that Jordan took.





Splashing

Garrett is just learning all sorts of things. He has now figured how to spash in the tub with his feet. Kids are so amazing in what they learn how to do in such little time. We did censor this video... I have checked it many times to make sure it's 'G' rated. All's good!




Garrett Blessing

First of all I'd like to thank everyone who came to Garrett's Blessing. Thank you also for bringing food to it. It was such a special day, especially it being my first mother's day. We were glad that most of our immediate family was there. We did miss Elder Trevor C who is in Finland right now and Grandma and Grandpa Allen. We did get to talk to Trevor on the phone that morning thought which was awesome. We even got to hear him sing a hymn in Finnish. It's amazing that these missionaries can learn these languages in such a short amount of time. The Lord's work will go on.

All the kids were happy to had grandpa mike back from Hawaii.
We can't wait for the day when we get to visit him there!
Grandma Linda and Grandpa Nathan.
Garrett wasn't the only one who was worn out at the
end of the day. Jordan found this doll my Grandma Helen
made for Celeste when she was little. The doll is still being loved Grandma!
(if you get to enjoy this before Jordan takes it off, you are lucky)

Nap Time...

Garrett is so big. He has now firgured out how to calm himself down before he takes a nap. He is just the biggest talker! These videos are just a quick glimps of what he has done for 10 min. straight. Of course this all depends if I put him down on time or wait until he's overtired. Luckily I've finally figured out the right cues. I can now put him down with his binki, turn on the music and walk away. I think Jordan taught him this one. He's such an independent person already... happy to just do his own thing.











I also have to put socks on his hands now because otherwise he puts big scratches in his head. Most of the time drawing blood with it. OUCH!

Laughing

We finally got Garrett laughing on tape. He will only do it once or twice a day. We're so lucky to have such a happy boy and one who sleeps through the night! (mom is especially greatful)
