growing like a weed!

I can't seem to get enough of this cute little guy!

OVERLOAD

So I finally got my camera charger so that I could import all of the new pics, so here is an overload of everything we did a month ago. A few of these first ones are new, I took them today, so we could show all of his teeth, but he wanted the camera more, so he is crying in a few of them.

Here they are 4 TEETH!! 6 months old and has 4 teeth. my goodness.

Reed cute Mohawk. He is getting more hair now, I'm still not sure of he final color yet.
I think this looks just like jake, he has such expressive facial features. Just like his daddy.
My little sweetheart! ( thanks for the pj's grandma stratton! They are so cute!)
He loves to sleep with this little dog now when he is in his swing. its so precious.

This is when he got his first 2 teeth, when he was 4 months old.
First time we went swimming! So handsome!
He loves his saucer, as long as I'm not on the computer...
He is a face sleeper! He will not sleep any other way, it made me really nervous at first but as long as he is sleeping I'm happy.
We got to go the the Pittsburgh Zoo on fathers day, because the dads got in free, and reed did too, so we only had to pay for me. It was a lot of fun! Reed wasn't really to interested in the animals, he just like to people watch. So he enjoyed himself! But they did have an aquarium too, and he really liked the fish.


Downtown pittsburgh! Where we live looks nothing like this. I will post pictures soon.

June 13, 2009

My cousin jen got married on June 13 and I got to photograph their wedding I just wanted to post a few of my favorites!

Yeah I know I'm kind of a nerd..

So I can't wait to see this! We saw transformers last night and I couldn't believe that they were making this into a movie. I just finished the cartoon series like a week ago and I really enjoyed it! So I'm interested to see how well M. Knight does with this. It doesn't come out for a whole year though... :(

June Bugs!

So june has been a crazy month! Reed and I were home alone while jake was out working in Pittsburgh, and we joined him on the 16th! So we are happy family again!
but while I was home I got to photograph another cousins wedding. Jen and Ephriam were so cute! and I had so much fun taking their pics. I give you a little sneak peak, and a bunch of pics of me and reed at the reception.
My camera battery died during uploading my pics, so we didn't get to the pittsburgh pics yet, so as soon and I get that up and running I will post more.

4 months old!!

I can't believe that Reed is 4 months old!! It keeps going so fast and he is learning new things everyday. He can now roll over from his back to his tummy, he has been rolling over the other way forever! He also has discovered how to lift up his feet to help his grab is toys hanging above his head. He laughs and talks to us all the time, and is finally on a good sleep schedule. Which has been so nice.. We went to his 4 month appointment on Monday and he weighs 16.8 lbs in the 80%, he is 26 1/2 long in the 92%! So he is growing fast and he is healthy. He now gets to eat rice cereal, he really likes it, but he is still trying to figure out how to swallow it.. but he is getting better everyday.

everything is changing..

So sometimes I feel like Jake and I are some of the craziest people I know. We bought our first home!! So exciting! We love it so much, it has so much room!
The problem is that Jake and I seem to get restless, and need change in our lives. We've been doing the same thing now for 2 years. So Jake decided it was time for a new job. He's been trying to buy the water store where he works for about a year now, and it just isn't working out. So he decided that he was done with that job (his boss is a joke) and needed to find something else to do. I know what are we thinking in this economy.. I don't know either. But he has a friend that he has worked with before and he got talking to him and he has been selling security systems for 3 years now and has done really well. So Jake decided that this is what he wants to do. I know I thought he was completely crazy when he told me this, but after much thought and prayers we are packing up and leaving for the summer and headed off to Pittsburgh, PA. Jake actually leaves tomorrow, and I won't go out till June 15th. Hopefully he can make enough that he can go to school full time and not have to have a full time job too. Wouldn't that be nice. So yeah here we go on our next adventure! I'm excited and scared all at the same time! I will post new pictures of Reed and the new house soon!
