Update

For five long months Shaun has been commuting from Cedar to St. George.  During this time we've looked into renting and then moved on to buying something.  We finally found a town home and quickly placed an offer.  A week before we were going to sign Shaun's work asked if he would like to transfer to the Cedar office.  So, now we are no longer moving!  Now we are once again searching for a home, hopefully we will find something soon!  We are excited that we get to stay in Cedar since it's where we wanted to end up in the future.

In October we had a chance to visit our birth mom. This was the first time we got to see her since Carson was born.  We had such a great time with her and her family! They have been so kind to us.  We are truly blessed to have them in our lives.

Carson was a cute little puppy dog for Halloween.  It was a lot of fun taking him around in his costume.  I'm already excited for next year when he will be a little more aware of what's going on.

Carson is now 3 months!  Seriously, where does the time go!  At his 2 month check up he was 12 lbs, 24 in. long and his head was 16 in.  I'm sure he is a lot bigger by now, that boy sure loves to eat!  He is now smiling and has started to laugh and he coos all the time!  We're working on rolling over, but so far he only rolls to one side.  We love our little boy so much!  We can't wait to see what he does next!

Conference Weekend

For conference weekend  we stayed at Shaun's family cabin.  This was our first time sleeping somewhere else since Carson came into our family.  I've always been the type to pack more then I need, now I think I'm ten times worse with a kid!  I guess it's always good to be prepared, even if we could have lasted a week or more on the mountain.  Since we have the newest baby we got to have our own room in the basement!  This was great since I was worried about Carson keeping everyone up at night.  If any of you know me well, you know I worry. I guess that's just who I am, but I think having a baby intensifies it.  At night Carson's bassinet is usually by my side of the bed, that way I can check on him throughout the night (I probably check on him more then I should).  At the cabin there wasn't enough room to have him by the side of the bed so we put his crib at the foot of the bed.  After we got into bed I checked on him once and Shaun told me that I needed to sleep with my head at the foot of the bed.   This goes to show I in fact check on Carson more then I should. :)  I guess Shaun is one of those people that knows I worry all the time, and he didn't want that effecting his sleep.  If anything I guess Shaun knows how much I love Carson and worry about him, and hopefully Carson will know that someday too.
