It has been a crazy few months for us. We had a ton of stuff going on, a new baby, a wedding, sicknesses, and spring cleaning.

My Brother-in-law David got married to an amazing girl named Janna! We are so happy for them!
I don't have any good pictures of just the two of them... David's eyes where all half open, making him look drunk. They got married in the Manti Temple at 9am. We had to get up crazy early so Jacob got to sleepover at Grandpa and Grandma Glassford's House. We also had Heather tag along to help with Derek while we where in the sealing ceremony. I am so thankful she was able to help. This is Derek and his cousin Hailey at the wedding reception.

We sat next to Jim and Kayla at the reception, their little boy Jonah is so cute, he looks like a mini version of his dad with his mom's eyes.
Jacob got chicken nuggets, but all he wanted to eat was my salad.
Dan's sister Bonnie and family came out for David and Janna's wedding. While they where here we had a birthday party for their son Matt. It was fun to hang out with them since they live so far away. The birthday party was at a Pirate themed party place. It was like Chucky cheese but with boats and waiters with a lot of eyeliner.
Whack a mole... classic.
The modified sea worthy version of whack-a-mole. Jacob loved the racing game. We must of sat and let him play with the wheel for a half hour. Jacob eating the cupcake, actually just the frosting.
Heather has not only been a big help with babysitting, but become one of Jacob's favorite play buddies. He frequently asked to go to Grandpa's house to play with Heather.
About three weeks ago Jacob started to get sick, turns out it was RSV. Fever, runny nose, cough, two ear infections, and lack of sleep made him a crabby kid. Even though I did everything I could to keep the two children separate, and after using tons of hand sanitizer to the point of excess, Derek got sick. It was horrible, and I felt helpless since you really can't give any medicine to an infant. We had to take Derek to the hospital 2-3 times a day for a whole week plus have him on a nebulizer at home. he also had a fever and ear infections. I am so thankful to everyone that has helped us, it was a very stressful and tiring few weeks. Lets be honest, it has been a stressful and tiring year so far. I am currently demanding a break from drama and trials. Even though he has been sick, Derek still is in the 50 percentile in weight, he is just over 12 pounds. He is already growing out of his three month clothing. He is growing fast, and looking more like his dad and brother every day.

  2. I love reading your blog. Thanks for writing and all the pictures. I must admit the last one with you and Derek is my favorite, but I do love Heather's pics as well.

    Love Mom
