Spencer Moments

Spencer hangin' out.  I can't believe how grown up he looks.

So I'm still grossed out by this massive booger that came flying out of Spencer's nose.  He had been congested for a few days but I could never get anything to come out.  Then one afternoon while he was chillin' in his swing he sneezed and this booger shot out.  Who had the snotty nose kid?  I did!

If you know me you know that I absolutely LOVE snow cones so it makes sense that Spencer would love them too.  I think we should try a different flavor next time though because it seems like he was a little unsure about that flavor.

It never fails that when Spencer and Casey spend time together this is the end result.  I love my two boys!

Spencer with his best friend, Elliott.  I think Spencer is crying because of the hideous outfit his dad put him in but I could be wrong.  And, I don't know how Elliott learned gang signs so quickly!

Spencer felt so comfortable with Elaine that he slept in her arms the whole time she visited.  

After we had driven by McDonald's a few times Spencer started asking for a Happy Meal so we decided it was time for him to try one.  He was a good boy and ate the whole thing.  His Aunt Amber, who loves McDonald's very much, was proud of him. 

Spencer's Blessing Weekend

We blessed Spencer at our church on Sunday, May 30th.  We want to thank our family and friends for their support on this special day especially to those who traveled to be here for it.  Here are some photos from that weekend.

Family photos before heading to church to bless him

After church we had a picnic for all our family and friends.  At the park we took some photos of Spencer in his blessing outfit.  

Spencer with his "favorite" uncle Brady.  To be fair to his other uncles Brady is the only one he's met so far so of coarse he is his favorite but that could change:)

Spencer hangin' with his cousin Scout.  They had so much fun playing together and can't wait until this summer when we go to California.

Time with Spencer = no computer time

It's crazy how little time you have for emailing, blogging, and playing on the the computer when you have a baby.  So I hope everyone can understand why we haven't been posting pictures.  At least we've been taking photos along the way.  Here are some Spencer highlights from the past couple of weeks.

Spencer zonked out in his bouncer.  He loves to cuddle so a lot of times we have to put a rolled up blanket next to him so he feels like he is cuddling with someone.

Spencer got invited to his first birthday party to Chuck E Cheese.  I was a little concerned about all the germs but he survived so I have nothing to worry about now.

Some of Casey's family came up for Spencer's baby blessing.  During their stay Spencer went on his very first walk.  He absolutely loved being outside so much that he slept during the whole thing.  

After a bath we put Spencer in his bouncer while we cleaned up.  When we checked on him we no longer saw Spencer but a little duck instead.  He wiggles so much that the wiggled the hood onto his face - too cute!

Spencer is getting so big!

Spencer met his cousin, Scout, for the first time when she came to visit for his baby blessing.  She was a little unsure what to play with him and he definitely did not like playing with her.  I'm sure they will be best-cousins when they grow up.

We took Casey's parents to Bridal Veil Falls and it happened to be Spencer's first time there as well.

This is what happens when I leave Casey in charge of changing Spencer.

How many diapers Spencer goes through in two days - gross!

Spencer at his first triathlon cheering his daddy on and sporting his "Team Casey" onesie.  The onesie that was made for him for the Ironman is too big so I look the logo from another t-shirt and sewed it onto a onesie that fits him now. 

Spencer and I bring Casey lunch almost everyday after summer school.  It's fun to picnic out in the schools front yard.  Usually Spencer sleeps through it all.
