Blogging is hard!

Yes I said it! Blogging is hard . . . when you have a baby of course! I did have the best of intentions when it came to keeping up with my blog but soon realized that a baby takes up a lot of your time . . . I mean A LOT of time! Regardless I wouldn't change a thing. Bear is the greatest little guy and such a good baby.

Lots has been happening since our last post (obviously). We had many visitors after Bear was born. It was great to have everyone out to see Bear after he was born. We were able to go home to Idaho for Christmas which was so fun. My sister has a baby boy Cy who is3 months older than Bear. It was so cool to see them together and have all of us together on Christmas. We also got to babysit Cy a few times while Jessica worked. Here is one of the pictures of the boys we got taken while were home.


Fast forward and Bear is now 3 and a half months old. He changes so fast and is at a really fun stage. He smiles and coos and is almost laughing out loud. He can recognize our voices too and turns to look at us when we talk to him. He also has learned to roll over from his belly to his back. One morning we got up and found him in his crib on his back. He was so proud of himself! Soon he will be motoring around the house. We just can't believe how much joy he has brought to our lives! Don't know what we did without him!

Big changes are in store for our family soon. We are going to be leaving this military as Kyles initial commitment is up. I can't believe it has been 7 years . . . one deployment and lots of moving it seems like. It will be a hard transition out of the army, but we are both ready to be closer to family and live in a place we like. We still are not sure where we will be going, but hopefully back to the northwest. We really miss winter sports, hiking, kayaking, etc so somewhere that has those things would be ideal. We will keep everyone posted as we make our decision. It is scary but also exciting to be starting this new chapter in our lives. 

Here are a few more pics from the last few months. Hope this finds all of our friends and family well!
