4 months

Bridger is 4 months old!  In some ways, the time has flown and in other ways, it has just crept.    I am so happy Bridger isn't so breakable anymore.  What am I talking about, he's HUGE.  Here are a few things about Bridger and his 4-month-old self:

1.  His little personality is starting to come out and it's fun to see.  He is very observant - loves to be where there's a party. 
2.  If he is tired of something, he's not afraid to let me know.  He will yell, squirm right out of my arms, and if I haven't helped him out, he'll scream at the top of his lungs.

3.  He loves to smile and his laugh is more like a chuckle.  If you laugh, Bridger will laugh right along with you.
4.  I don't know if the rule to walk before you run will apply to Bridger.  I think he'll be running before he can even crawl.
5.  If I want a truly content baby, I hold him.  Bridger loves being held.

Even though I'm still wearing maternity, losing literally 5 fist-fulls of hair everday, and feel lucky if I can get out to check the mail, I wouldn't trade this little boy for the whole wide world.



Family Pictures 2012

Bridger has discovered his hands and will not get them out of his mouth.  He has perpetual slobber all over his clothes...so fun.

The Jumper

 

We LOVE Bridger's Jumper.  It distracts him longer than anything else.  It is so fun to watch him reach for everything and get excited by "jumping" as hard as he can.  As my dad would say, "Leave him alone, he's working."  Thank you so much mom and dad for helping us buy it..money well spent!

Happy Halloween

For Halloween this year, Tim came up with the brilliant idea while we were combing the aisles of Target to do a Christmas theme.  We were getting desperate for something when we came across a baby Santa outfit and wha-lah, our halloween costumes. 

We got this jumper a couple of weeks ago - we were so excited about it! Tim spent an hour assembling it and when we finally got Bridger in the seat, his feet were five inches from the ground.  It turns out, he needs to be four months to really enjoy it, or at least be able to reach for the rings.  However, I feel like every time we put him in, he learns something new.

Bridger's First BYU Football Game

 My family came up this weekend and we all went to the BYU football game.  Since Bridger tagged along, we were only there for 30 minutes.  Luckily, we were able to see the only touchdown of the game...nice timing.  The following pictures are just random.

Bridger's Big Day Out

I couldn't stand staying at my apartment anymore so I finally got up the guts and went out for the day.  I picked up my darling sister this morning and we headed up to the Fashion Place mall in Salt Lake.  We had an absolute blast!  My Heavenly Father knew how much I needed this day and helped Bridger to be extra good for me...as in he slept the entire time.

Bridger was rearin' to go in his little carseat.  Unfortunately, he had a blow out when we got to Lindsey's apartment and his outfit ended up in the trash.  Luckily I grabbed a onesie as we headed out the door...this day was NOT going to be ruined by a little (very) dirty diaper.

Isn't my sister gorgeous?  I have such beautiful sisters.

 

I look like a such a mom.

We had a party at H&M.  I found a cute outfit for Bridger.  I didn't buy any clothes because I still look pregnant and I was not about to go back to the maternity section. 

We ended our little shopping trip at the Cheesecake Factory - my favorite restaurant.  Lindsey and I shared an amazing salad and I got some cheesecake for Tim and me for later that evening.  So yum.
